1878 - Bulgaria regains its independence from Ottoman Empire according to the Treaty of San Stefano, that marks the revival of the Bulgarian State, submerged under Ottoman rule since the end of 14th century. Ceremonies, celebrating the national holiday, are traditionally held throughout the country, particularly solemn in towns and cities boasting victorious battles for Russian and Bulgarian soldiers in the 1877-1878 liberation war.
