Conference Location
The historical development of the Bulgarian territories and the people that inhabited them in the antiquity during the ancient times has been determined by one major factor – their crossing between Europe and Asia. Since its very foundation in 681 AD, Bulgaria has had the potential to become one of the major centers of Europe. Bulgaria’s territory had been inhabited by the Thracians for thousands of years before being conquered by the Roman Empire and later the Byzantine Empire. Bulgaria is one of the few exotic nations of Europe, due to the fact that it boasts provides magnificent beaches, lovely churches, winter sport opportunities and great hiking locations, to name a few.
