Economic History

Russia

The ruinous effects of World War I, combined with internal pressures, sparked the March 1917 uprising, which led Tsar Nicholas II to abdicate the throne. (references)

Bulgaria

Several years later, the First Bulgarian Kingdom or the "Golden Age" emerged under Tsar Simeon I in 893-927. During this time, Bulgarian art and literature flourished. (references)

Russia

Ivan III (1462-1505) was able to refer to his empire as "the Third Rome" and heir to the Byzantine tradition, and a century later the Romanov dynasty was established under Tsar Mikhail in 1613. (references)

Political Economy

Bulgaria

The National Movement Simeon II, political vehicle of the former exiled Tsar Simeon Saxe-Coburg won half of the 240 seats in Bulgaria's unicameral legislature, and is expected to form a government, probably in coalition with the Movement for Rights and Freedoms, which is generally seen as representing Bulgaria's ethnic Turkish minority.

Bulgaria

Early expectations were that 2001 parliamentary elections would follow a similar course, with the UDF holding on to at least a plurality ahead of the BSP. All that changed, however, with the return to the country of Simeon II, the former Tsar who had lived most of his life in exile in Madrid since leaving Bulgaria as a boy after World War II. Simeon Saxe-Coburg brought together a diverse group of individuals in the National Movement Simeon II and, although he did not run for a seat in parliament himself, swept aside both the UDF and BSP in coming just one seat short of an absolute majority in the new National Assembly.
