Bŭlgariya - Nie Sme Na Pŭt

Bulgaria is a republic in southeastern Europe with around 6.5 million inhabitants. The country occupies most of the eastern Balkan Peninsula and is bordered by Romania to the north, Serbia and North Macedonia to the west, Greece and Turkey to the south, and the Black Sea to the east. Bulgaria covers an area of ​​110,994 square kilometers and lies in the temperate climate zone. Sofia is the capital and also the largest city in the country; other larger cities are Plovdiv, Varna and Burgas. Bulgaria has been a member of NATO since 2004 and joined the European Union in 2007.
In what is now Bulgaria there is the earliest evidence of the presence of humans (Homo sapiens) in Europe and the Neolithic Karanovo culture, which dates back to 6500 BC. Dating back to the 1st century BC, one of the earliest settlements on the continent. In the 6th to 3rd centuries B.C. In the 4th century BC the region came under tension between the Thracians, Persians, Celts and Greeks. Stability came when the Roman Empire managed to conquer the region in 45 AD. With the decline and division of the empire, invasions by different groups began again in the region. The Goths immigrated in the 4th century and created the only written source of their language here. Around the 6th century, the areas were settled by the early Slavs. The Proto-Bulgarians, led by the brothers Asparuch and Kuwer, left the territory of (old) (Greater) Bulgaria and settled permanently on the Balkan Peninsula in the late 7th century. They founded two empires called Bulgaria, one between the Danube and the Balkan Mountains and one in the area around today's Bitola in the west of the peninsula. The Danube Empire, which was recognized by treaty by the Eastern Roman Empire in 681, over time united with the Empire of Kuwer. This First Bulgarian Empire ruled most of the southern Balkan Peninsula and significantly influenced Slavic cultures through the development of the Cyrillic script at the court of the Bulgarian tsars and the establishment of the Bulgarian Patriarchate.
Old Bulgarian literature and literature formed the third largest cultural and religious area in medieval Europe. The empire existed until the early 11th century, when the Byzantine Emperor Basil II conquered and subjugated it. A successful Bulgarian revolt in 1185 established a Second Bulgarian Empire, which reached its peak under Ivan Asen II (1218–1241). After numerous exhausting wars and feudal struggles, the empire dissolved in 1396 and the region fell under Ottoman rule for almost five centuries.

Today Bulgaria is a parliamentary republic consisting of 28 provinces with a high degree of political, administrative and economic centralization. With an upper-middle income economy, the United Nations Development Program ranks Bulgaria among high human development countries. Its market economy is part of the European internal market and is based largely on services, followed by industry - particularly engineering and mining - and agriculture. Bulgaria is the world's largest producer of lavender oil and has a long tradition of rose cultivation and rose oil production. The country is facing a demographic crisis as its population has been shrinking annually since around 1990. Compared to a peak of almost nine million inhabitants in 1988, today there are only around 6.5 million. Bulgaria has been a member of NATO since March 29, 2004 and a member of the European Union (EU) and the Council of Europe since January 1, 2007, a founding member of the OSCE and has held a seat on the United Nations Security Council three times.

Finland is a parliamentary republic in Northern Europe, a member of the European Union since 1995 and a member of NATO since 2023. Finland borders Sweden, Norway, Russia and the Baltic Sea.

With around 5.5 million inhabitants in an area almost the size of Germany, Finland is one of the most sparsely populated countries in Europe. The majority of the population lives in the south of the country with the capital Helsinki and the major cities Espoo, Tampere, Vantaa and Turku. The two official languages ​​are Finnish and Swedish, with 88.7% of the population speaking Finnish and 5.3% speaking Swedish. The monolingual Swedish archipelago of Åland has extensive autonomous status.

Finland has been inhabited by humans since the end of the last ice age. From the migration period onwards, Finland came into greater contact with the rest of Europe through the expanding Baltic Sea trade; it was Christianized in the High Middle Ages. Finland was part of Sweden for centuries. In the 18th century it increasingly came under the influence of the expanding Russian Empire and was incorporated into it in 1809 as the Grand Duchy of Finland. With the introduction of women's suffrage in 1906, Finland was the first country in Europe to introduce active women's suffrage at the national level and was the third country in the world after New Zealand and Australia. When it comes to passive suffrage, Finland's leading position is even clearer: for the first time in the world, women were elected to a parliament.

The fall of the Russian Tsar (Nicholas II abdicated in mid-March 1917) and the October Revolution of 1917 enabled Finland to break away from Russia. On December 6, 1917, the Finnish Parliament passed the Finnish Declaration of Independence.

Winner of the week: 🥇53

The District of Columbia, or Washington, D.C., is the federal district, the seat of government, and the capital of the United States since 1800. The district borders the states of Virginia and Maryland, but is not a state itself and is not part of either. Rather, it is directly subordinate to the United States Congress. Despite sharing the same name as the state of Washington on the West Coast of the United States, Washington, D.C. is often referred to simply as "Washington" in German-speaking countries; D.C. stands for the District of Columbia.

As of the 2020 census, Washington, D.C. had a population of 689,545. This was the first major increase after a steady decline in population since 1950. The Washington metropolitan area had 6,385,162 inhabitants. Together with the neighboring Baltimore metropolitan area, the region had a total population of 9,973,383 according to the census.
