Founders of the Bulgarian State Monument

The Monument to 1300 Years of Bulgaria (Bulgarian: Паметник 1300 години България), also known as the Founders of the Bulgarian State Monument (Паметник на създателите на Българската държава), is a large monument built on a plateau above the city of Shumen, Bulgaria. It was built in 1981 to commemorate the 1300th anniversary of the First Bulgarian Empire.

The monument is built in concrete in a Cubist style, and designed by Bulgarian sculptors Krum Damyanov and Ivan Slavov. It is reached by a processional concrete stairway from Shumen, or by road. It stands at a height of 450 m above sea level and can be seen from 30 km away.

        Asparukh o Isperih fue el gobernante de una tribu protobúlgara en la segunda mitad del siglo VII, y a él se le atribuye la fundación del Primer Imperio búlgaro en torno al año 680. Es el más famoso entre los jefes protobúlgaros. La aplicación del título eslavo Kanas, tanto a él como a sus sucesores, es objeto de disputa hoy en día. Founders of the Bulgarian State Monument 10

        Krum and sons. Krum was the Khan of Bulgaria from sometime between 796 and 803 until his death in 814. During his reign the Bulgarian territory doubled in size, spreading from the middle Danube to the Dnieper and from Odrin to the Tatra Mountains. His able and energetic rule brought law and order to Bulgaria and developed the rudiments of state organization. Founders of the Bulgarian State Monument 20

        Krum and sons. Krum gobernó Bulgaria después del kynaz Kardam, fundando una nueva dinastía, entre el año 803 y hasta su fallecimiento.​ Hay hipótesis sobre su origen; una presume que su familia procedía de los protobúlgaros panónicos. Fue el primer gobernante que llevó el título de Kanas u bigi (Kanas en Dio). Las descripciones de historiadores bizantinos hicieron que adquiriera una reputación de crueldad y barbarie. Sin embargo, posteriormente, se convirtió en realce de sabiduría. Krum fue uno de los más grandes monarcas medievales búlgaros. Durante su gobierno Bulgaria reforzó su posición en los Balcanes y en Europa, gracias a sus numerosas victorias en el campo de batalla. Krum comenzó a involucrar a los eslavos en el poder, aprobando las primeras leyes en el estado búlgaro3​ y comenzó la reforma administrativa. Founders of the Bulgarian State Monument 21

        Tzar Simeon and his army. Tsar Simeon ruled over Bulgaria from 893 to 927, during the First Bulgarian Empire. Simeon's successful campaigns against the Byzantines, Magyars and Serbs led Bulgaria to its greatest territorial expansion ever, making it the most powerful state in contemporary Eastern and Southeast Europe. His reign was also a period of unmatched cultural prosperity and enlightenment later deemed the Golden Age of Bulgarian culture. Founders of the Bulgarian State Monument 30

        Tzar Simeon and his army. Simeón I, llamado Simeón el Grande, fue zar (emperador) del Primer Imperio búlgaro (925-927) y un soberano guerrero que hizo de su corte un centro cultural. Educado en Constantinopla (actual Estambul), Simeón sucedió a su padre, Boris I, en 893 después del breve reinado de su hermano mayor, Vladimir. Su ambición dominante, que fue ascender al trono imperial de Bizancio, una aspiración compartida así mismo por muchos zares búlgaros posteriores, condujo a Simeón a embarcarse en muchas guerras con el Imperio bizantino (894, 896, 913, 917, 923). Nunca consiguió tomar Constantinopla, a pesar de que estuvo varias veces a su merced, pero tomó para sí el título de «zar de todos los búlgaros» (925) y también declaró el Arzobispado autónomo búlgaro como autocéfalo y lo elevó a la categoría de Patriarcado. En los Balcanes, extendió el poder de Bulgaria sobre el sur de Macedonia, el sur de Albania, y Serbia, que se convirtieron en sus vasallos;​ pero el dominio búlgaro al norte del Danubio se perdió probablemente durante su reinado. Simeón se casó dos veces y dejó cuatro hijos, de los cuales el mayor de su segundo matrimonio, Pedro I, lo sucedió. Founders of the Bulgarian State Monument 32
