The most critical development that paved the way for Bulgarian independence was the 1877-1878 Ottoman-Russian war. The Ottoman Empire's refusal to accept reform demands became an excuse for the 1877-1878 Ottoman-Russian war and Russia took action by declaring war on the Ottoman Empire.
On September 22nd Bulgaria celebrates its Declaration Of Independence, on that day in the year 1908 Prince Ferdinand declares the Bulgarian independent State.
This event occurs 30 years after the end of the Russo-Turkish War of 1877-78. That finalized with the signature of the San Stefano peace treaty on the March 3 of 1878, the day when Bulgaria appeared in the map for the first time after 500 years under the Ottoman Rule, with the name of Principality of Bulgaria.
