September 22 marks 108 years since the proclamation of Bulgaria’s independence.
On September 22, 1908, by force of a manifesto by Prince Ferdinand, Bulgaria renounced all claims by the Ottoman Empire over Southern Bulgaria as a vassal state, known prior to the country’s reunification as Eastern Rumelia. Bulgarians also rejected all financial commitments to the empire and to the West European nations under the Berlin Treaty concluded thirty years earlier.
