the tatars are from that same stock too

the tatars just never left

and loads of people have tatar blood

@Lucienne d'Anwyl bulgars were msot likely closer related to huns while the turks basically just settled into central asia when the bulgars left

Tatar sauce

imagine not having Kekistani blood

such a pitiful existence

I wouldn't say they are closely related

the bulgarians didnt leve till well after the turks were present

also tatar is just an umbrella term not really a people group

i mean the entirety of modern bulgaria

it's like saiyng western european

WE WERE NEVER IN CENTRAL ASIA!

I’m pretty sure the Bulgarians are Slavic

was pecheneg and avar land

for most of the middle ages

until the bulgarians moved in

We were in Bactria

no byzantine land

and he bulgarians moved in somewhat concurrently with the seljuks moving into annatolia

and sometimes went East on military expeditions.

the pechengs settled in western/southern romania

We wuz Macedonian greeks now

You guys have a Slavic language and have Eastern Orthodox like the Russians

But we did not controlled thoroughly these lands.

Idk genetically might have a ton of Slavic blood

while the avars settled in pannonia and got beaten back by the hungarians who also destroyed the first bulgarian empire

that explains the Bulgarians who think they live in Macedon

modern Bulgarians are very slavic but not as slavic as their slavic neighbours

genetically everyone in the region has a ton of slavic blood

North Macedonia was mostly Bulgarian before WW1

even the greeks

i mean the last roman emperor himself

was a half slav

that artist is deviljo right?

@snake No, they have OUR language and religion which we made up after we got Christianity from the Greek.

Kosovo was majority Serbian before WW2

magyars arent technically slavic
