American missionaries created the Bulgarian alphabet and national language around 1850

-

 Bulgaria continues to deny the existence of the Macedonian language. The official position of Bulgaria on this subject is as follows: "Macedonian is a West Bulgarian dialect" is one main argument from Sofia, whereas they argue further.

Today's Macedonian language did not naturally emerge from the Bulgarian language as a dialect, but was "artificially created by the communists of Yugoslavia" do claim bulgarians. In the course of this, some also accuses the Macedonian language was "de-Bulgarized" by force.

These theses are of course absurd, and nothing more than the continuation of the centuries-long Bulgarian agitation against Macedonia, the Macedonians as well as everything Macedonian itself. Even as an EU member, Bulgaria sticks to this chauvinist and irredentist argument.

Bulgarians were a Turkic people who owned a language of Turkic origin

This argumentation is of course in contradiction to reality, and the Macedonian as well Bulgarian history.

Because, as we know, the Bulgarians were in themselves a Turkic people, who were newcomers to these (Slavic-speaking) latitudes. They overran the country with their cavalry hordes and took the lead as rulers over the people who were already domestic residents.

But the people that were ruled spoke a different language. For the sake of simplicity, we will refer to it from now on in the article as "Slavic language".

Bulgarian language


These ruling Bulgarians, however, who are called "Proto-Bulgarians" in science (for whatever reason), adopted the language of the local population. But not only the language, also the religion that was already widespread in the conquered areas, was adopted by the Bulgarians who had come from the steppe and from then on became Orthodox Christians.

You can read these historical facts yourself on the website of the Bulgarian government. We quote from the page:

681 The Beginning

The establishment of a Bulgarian state by Khan Asparukh on the Balkan peninsula is one of the most remarkable political events in Europe in the 7th century after the Great Migration.

855 The Alphabet

The first Bulgarian alphabet – the glagolitical one, was created by the brothers Cyril and Methodius. At the end of the 9th and the beginning of the 10th century a second Bulgarian alphabet is developed in Preslav, the Cyrillic alphabet. It consists of 24 letters based on the Greek script and 12 signs taken from the glagolitic script. Today nearly 15 million people around the world speak Bulgarian and the Cyrillic alphabet is the third official alphabet of the European Union.

864 Conversion to Christianity

The adoption of Christianity has a great historic significance for Bulgaria because it leads to the establishment of the Bulgarian church, the advancement of Slavic literature and the evolution from Khanate to Tsardom and a sovereign state in Europe.

The passages adopted above are also the first three articles on Bulgarian history in the "History" category of the Bulgarian government website.

What immediately strikes the viewer:

The establishment of the Bulgarian Empire is dated to the year 681 under Khan Asparuch! This is followed by a 170 year long 'Dark Age' in which the Turkish character of the empire is concealed, before the Bulgarian government then believes that around 855 "Cyril and Method created a Bulgarian alphabet".

However, it was not until 864 (nine years later) that the Bulgarian ruling class joined Orthodox Christianity and mutated from a khanate to a tsarist empire!

Well, you can suit history and grab it, as in the case of Sofia, but ...

American missionaries created the first standardized Bulgarian script

Contrary to the fantasy of the bulgarian doctrine, the first official Bulgarian alphabet was not created until the 1850s. And not from Bulgarians, but from American missionaries who stayed and 'woked' there!

This first Bulgarian alphabet, as well as the first national language of Bulgaria, was also created by the missionaries on the basis of the dialects in Thrace and (Eastern) Macedonia.

These American missionaries, with a network of local missions, were intentional or not helping Bulgaria to create a false picture of history. According to Tsanoff, it was American missionaries who discovered the Bulgarian nation or, you could say, you helped invent it.

Prince Ferdinand of Montenegro once said:

"Without American missionaries there would be no Bulgaria"

Letters by Greek soldiers about the massacres in Aegean Macedonia - 1913

The Hellenic army is burning all slavophonic villages and kills all slavophones it captures! It can be seen from the letters by Greek soldiers sent from the front the horror that the Macedonian population in the towns and villages under Greek occupation faced. The bloody collection of about hundred letters should have been delivered to the addresses through the Greek Army’s military post office, but after it was captured by the Bulgarian Army in Razlog on 14 July 1913, the letters were made public. It is a fearsome collection of authentic testimonies that were taken to the State Archives in Sofia in 1913, as Ljubomir Miletic PhD claims. In those letters, the Greek soldiers bragged to their relatives and friends that they hadn’t left a single Slavophone alive wherever they went, that they had raped all the Slavic Macedonian women and that they had burned all the Slavophonic villages. One hundred years ago After the Ottoman army left Macedonia, Serbs, Bulgarians and Greeks wante...

'Alexander the Slav' by Universumskristall Blog

  We found an very interesting article published by a German speaking Polish Blog, named Universumskristall ( Universe crystal ). We thought, it is worth translating and of course for You, it is much worth to read it... Alexander the Slav by Universumskristall Blog Alexander the Great is an ancient ruler who we believe we have a thorough knowledge of. Hardly anyone has exercised such a fascination on people as he and despite many reports and testimonies, one fact has not been sufficiently taken into account until today, namely that the people from which Alexander was descended actually had little to do with the Greeks. Generations of historians tried to convince people that Alexander was a Greek. It was mentioned here and there that he was a Macedonian ruler, but Western historiography has always considered him and his people to be part of a Greek culture. That is of course not true. The ancient Macedonians and Greeks share a common past, but at the time of Alexander the difference...

History: Macedonia was never a part of the ancient Hellenic city-states

One of the steps in the Scientific Method of Investigation is the publication of your obtained results. This is done, so that others by repeating the same experiment using same methodology may independently arrive to the same conclusion and verify whether it is true what you have accomplished with your own hypothesis. Once many independent laboratories—through their scientific research—confirm your results, then, the hypothesis that you have proposed becomes accepted and your findings acknowledged.  I have said before, and I stand by my assertions that: (a) Macedonia was never a part of any ancient Greek city-state, nor were the ancient Macedonians ever considered by the ancient Greeks or by themselves, to be Greek. (b) Macedonia was never a member of any Hellenic League. Macedonia was not a member of the Greek Amphictyonic League either. Fact is that membership into these leagues was reserved for Hellenes only. And since Macedonians were not considered Hellenes, they we...
