Amazing video! I think you definitely captured the essence and instability of Bulgaria in the interwar years very well. I like that you addressed the myopia of the political establishment and how ironically, Bulgaria would turn into a smaller version of the Ottoman Empire with so many territories and minorities being incorporated. However, I do have a couple small gripes. First, you are describing a very high level of political instability not even seen in our own timeline when the country lost the war and was economically crippled. I simply believe it is a bit far-fetched to see so much instability after a WWI victory. Obviously, this is a work of fiction so it is not that important and even if improbable it is not impossible. The second bigger gripe I have is that you assume there were few Bulgarians in the acquired lands. In census data from the interwar period most of Macedonia considered themselves ethnically Bulgarian. In Dobrudja, the Southern part had been part of the Bulgarian metropole for decades and was majority Bulgarians. So it would be a stretch to say the central authority wouldn’t be exerted in those areas. As much as this is alt history fiction, some data cannot really be ignored for the sake of the scenario and destabilization. That being said, I do agree that majority of the Serbian, Greek, and Northern Dobrudjean lands would have majority non-Bulgarians and would naturally oppose the regime unless there were major population transfers or expulsions of said minorities to their respective countries (not unlikely considering very real refugee crises occurred in the Balkans after WWI). Though here I must commend your spin on the IMRO and how it would become a paramilitary/militia organization. That is extremely likely considering how there were state-sponsored militias to keep law and order in the Bulgarian metropole in our own timeline. Overall, absolutely amazing video like always and thank you for covering this often-forgotten country in WWI. At the end of the day, this is alt-history fiction so you are free to imagine how Bulgaria and the Balkans would develop and I am here for the ride. This isn’t a critique as much as refinement of an extremely in-depth scenario and a sophisticated understanding of history. Looking forward to what you produce next!
Definitely some valid points! Some of these areas were wrapped into IMRO control mostly because we needed to cut for time and keep the main story on track. A more expansive video would probably dive even deeper 😀
it will definitely be a long one though- it has to go over the rise of Long and Reed, and the meddling that Germany and The Third Internationale had on politics, before and after the first world war
"It is us today. It will be you tomorrow." Halie Sellasie of Ethiopia, 1936, to the League of Nations IRL. "Today, they come for me. Tomorrow, they come for the Kaiserreich." The Last Democrat in Sofia, 1936, Kaiserreich. Bonechilling. Fantastic job as always. Also, I love how the list of issues Bulgarian governments face keeps increasing (I think the last one was 17 issues?) as they play musical chairs on a sinking ship of state.
The parliament infographic animation was something day invented for the Austria-Hungary episode, it's a great way to show a country's internal issues 😀
I know this is a major whiplash, but wouldn't it be absolutely hilarious if after that last scene, the door came down, and the narrator is expecting some radical lunatics coming in to kill him, inly for it actually to be a bunch of fellow democrats, and they go, "Bro, what are you doing down here? We have to go! I hear the weather in Greece is lovely this time of year."
@@occam7382 "IMRO? Third Balkan War? Syndicalists? Man, you must've hit your head pretty hard. C'mon, we're going to restore Bulgaria's greatness and retake our lands from Serbia!"
Now whatever error has allowed me to watch this video yesterday, has simply given me more reason to watch it again in five days! Cuz I already know it's good.
In my school days i've always asked why we payed reparations to those who enslaved us (ottamans) which should have been the other way around. I've asked teachers plenty of times about this some will say the ''Great Powers'' wouldn't allowed a Greater Bulgarian state in the balkans and some will go silent or say something else etirely. Also to point out after 1945, when macedonia was brainwashed by the serbs , it is karma that kosovo was divided of Serbia - What Comes Around Goes Around!
Will the Prussia of the Balkans defeat their enemies and show the world that they *are* the master of the Balkans? Or will they pay the price of overextension and be forced to rebuild from ground up?
Kisercat I would like to say if you read this good job, I love the fact that it expands The Romanian, Serbian, and ofc Bulgaria lore. so amazing work I can't wait for this to be out permanently so I can watch it again
Very well made and detailed video! One thing I would alter though - most of the territory gained after WW1 would be majority Bulgarian, as confirmed by most ethnographic maps at the time (not just Bulgarian ones). Unrest would rather be centered around those territories that are the least Bulgarian-populated, such as the Westernmost parts of Serbia for example.
13:36-13:41...kubrat dont mean to the wolfs,but this is the name of the ancient bulgarian ruler kubrat the creator of the so called old great bulgaria wich lands were from northern ucraine to the danube delta,he is also the father of the creator of present day bulgaria asparuh(681),who created the state in north dobrudjia wich was usurped by romania,this land is the cradle of the bulgarian state and was populated by bulgars who were killed brutally and some expelled to the south in bulgaria proper,the romanians were killing mainly inteligent people the flower of the nation some sort of decapitating
It would be nice after this interwar documentary series ends a new series revisiting each country shows the “canon” lore of what the devs think the story would go. The players will still play and do what they want in the mod, but it would be nice to know what the canon history is.
Why does every western take on 19th-20th century Bulgarian history portrais Bulgaria as this powerhungry nation that just eant teritory expansion? This is especially the case when talking about the balkan wars. The ideology of Bulgaria wasnt mere teritorial expansion, it was reunification with all bulgarian people. People died, so that the oppression of their kin could come to an end.
I agree with you,cause the monarch recognise the state like it is him and try to do his best the state to look perfect as our state looked before 1944,but simeon sons are not worthy for the throne in my opinion,may be some of his grandsons will be well...we will see,we will see,it will be great the dna knolidge to progress more and we to find some of our old tzars ,why not khans😂😂to find the grandchildren of simeon the great,kaloyan the romanslayer or krum the dreadfull( i would like" krum the scary sight"more😂)
Great video. What I'm wondering is what the story line will be if Bulgaria agree with the output of the first balkan war and there is no second balkan war. I think all the political instability begins because of that epic fail. Macedonia will be target for sure in the next campaign, but what I imagine is that Bulgaria will miss the WW1 and join Greece in the upcoming greeko-turkish war. The target will be Constantinople. Yep that will postpone the Macedonian question, but since Serbia will be weak after the WW1 VMRO may cause issues and with Bulgarian support may form the new Macedonia country with the same manner as Kosovo split from Serbia. Anyhow I believe in that timeline there will be more political stability and balance for Bulgaria. Maybe they will attempt to rejoin Macedonia before WW2 and that to be the catalizator for WW2...its just my theory, who knows :)
POV: you’re a Bulgarian soldier during the second weltkrieg and the Moscow Accord invades the tsardom Romania in the north, Greece in the south, Serbia in the west, and the Russian Black Sea fleet blockades the eastern coast
I think you need to pick a lane with the speaches in terms of "is this meant to be an in universe speach" and "is this meant to be a bunch of exposition." Imo it would be better to be fully in universe since you already have the narration to fill in the expository gaps
Well in reall live in thouse teritories lived majority bulgarians. And the biggest minority, the turks didnt really ever made problems untill the comunists arived. So they clearly wanted to push the idea that Bulgaria is heading towards a collapse when in reallity it woud be much more stable ( even in our world where Bulgaria lost ww1 they where more stable than this ).

That will never happen, since there is no post-1936 canon other than black Monday and other things that always happen
@@geokou7645what is Black Monday ?
Yeah it will probably just explain the Great Depression and rise of extremism which would lead up to the civil war

i forgot i wasn't watching an actual history documentary and was so confused starting at 10:50
What minorities? Macedonia's population was 85% Bulgarians? The same in eastern Serbia and northern Greece? Be correct!
Do you even know what a minority even is? 85% is a majority of the population,so that means the remaining is still different ethnicities
No matter the views this could one day have, this channel will still not be considered not underrated

So they clearly wanted to push the idea that Bulgaria is heading towards a collapse when in reallity it woud be much more stable ( even in our world where Bulgaria lost ww1 they where more stable than this ).
