Remarkable isn't it
Damn.
yeah
That’s more similar than I’d ever think Swedish and Slovenian would be.
Or swedish;
Jag kopjer en stol i Paris
Moving on,
Belarus, then Russia
Oh
White russia
Probably because of the snow
Russia?
Means "land of the red haired people"
Rossi meaning red
Rossia
Russia
Okay, Bulgaria
Actually the russians still call themselfs "Rossia"
Bulgar-land
Want the origin of bulgar itself orrr
Let me hear
Migration south of the Danube, fighting the Byzantines n’ shit, getting oppressed by the Ottomans, Independence, Balkan Wars, WWI + WW2, Communist dictatorship then here we are now.
Uh
Heavily generalized.
You didn't explain the origin of the word itself
Oooooooh.
You briefly explained their history
Shit.
ya
I’ll... look it up on my own time.
Anyway, Czechia.
No no I can explain
I know of it
Actually you can just observe
With the case of slovene "betatism" which happens to shift the letter v into b bulgar becomes logical meaning "vulgar" you might think thats where the term comes from but it's just linguistic coinsidence. Considering the slovenians still use the classic "bolgar" name it's easily recognizable at this point.
Volga-r means "man from the shores of lake Volga"
The turks still call them Bulgaristan
hinting their tartar history
Czechia?
The story of Czech, Lech and Rus
Easy as that
