Bulgaria is a small country in the Balkan Peninsula in Europe. To the north, It is bordered by 
Romania. To the south is 
Greece and 
Turkey. To the west is 
Yugoslavia. It is mountainous in the west while on the east is forest and plains.
Historical background[edit]
As one of the defeated central powers of the First World War, the Kingdom of Bulgaria was subject to the Treaty of Neuilly, taking from it lands which contained many ethnic Bulgarians, especially Macedonia, Thrace, and Dobrudja, which were respectively given to Yugoslavia, Greece, and Romania. Bulgaria was further forced to pay reparations and limit its standing army, much in the sense of Versailles for 
Germany and Trianon for 
Hungary. By the 1930s, Tsar Boris III had ruled Bulgaria for several decades alongside a parliament and prime minister.
In the early months of the Second World War, Boris III and his government declared Bulgaria to be neutral, but increasing Axis pressure and promises to return Thrace to Bulgaria led to the country joining the Axis powers in March 1941. Boris III did not wish to actively engage in the conflict (perhaps because of the massive trauma the country sustained in the first war), but welcomed the bloodless return to Bulgaria lands lost after World War I, which Germany obliged once Yugoslavia and Greece fell to Axis forces. However, by December 1941, Bulgaria was compelled to declare a token war against the 
United Kingdom and 
United States. Bulgarian land forces did not participate in the Axis invasion of the 
Soviet Union, although the Bulgarian Royal Navy engaged in skirmishes against the Soviet Navy in the Black Sea. Bulgaria under Boris was notable in its constant, yet subtle, defiance of German demands, especially concerning the almost nonexistent effort of destroying the Bulgarian Jewish population (except for those in Macedonia, Thrace, and Dobrudja) and Bulgaria's lack of participation in Axis war efforts, the latter of which greatly infuriated Hitler. Boris himself is reputed to have saved many of his country's Jews by having them work to build up Bulgarian infrastructure, thus sparing them the fate that awaited many millions of other Jews in Central European concentration camps.
In 1943, Boris III suddenly died (some in the Bulgarian government suspected the Germans of poisoning him), leaving his six-year-old son Simeon as Tsar and a regency governing in his place. In September 1944, with Romania defecting to the Allies and Soviet troops massing at the Bulgarian border, Bulgaria was in political turmoil. The government failed to achieve peace with the Allies, and as Soviet demands to evict German troops from Bulgaria were unanswered, the Soviet Union declared war on Bulgaria and invaded, while an almost simultaneous left-wing uprising deposed the monarchy. By the end of the month, the country was in-firm Soviet control and the royal family had fled the country. However, Bulgaria itself was largely spared of the ravages of the war, unlike most other countries in Europe, and even added to its territory by being given Southern Dobrudja, thus being the only Axis country to have added to its lands after the war.
- Main article: Bulgarian events
Because Bulgaria is currently a generic nation, It has a very little amount of events. The current events deal with Romania and Yugoslavia giving land to the Bulgarians.
National focus[edit]
Generic national focus tree.
- Main article: Generic national focus tree
Bulgaria, lacking a unique national focus tree, uses the generic national focus tree instead. That being said, a new unique focus tree has been announced to be released for Bulgaria later this year, along with Greece and other unknown countries.
The generic focus tree has 5 main branches:
- Army Effort gives army experience and research bonuses to army research.
- Aviation Effort gives air experience, builds air bases, and research bonuses to air research.
- Naval Effort gives navy experience, builds naval dockyards, and research bonuses to navy research.
- Industrial Effort builds civilian and military factories (usually even if building slots are already full)and grants extra research slots.
- Political Effort gives the country choices on which political path they will take.
Technology[edit]
Bulgaria starts with 3 research slots.

Czechoslovakia, if forming an entente of their own, can get a war goal. Romania may puppet or annex depending on Bulgaria's choice. Yugoslavia may annex Bulgaria if they take the Western focus while if they chose the communist path, they may ask for an alliance. 
Italy may ally and influence Bulgaria to fascism while Germany may give Romanian, Greek or Yugoslav land.
