Balkan country among the poorest of Europe. After the decades of the communist regime and the long dictatorship of Zivkov (practically to the government of the country from 1954 to 1989), Bulgaria has undertaken a process of democratization and a walk of economic improvement.
However the population is worse and at least 1/3 of the inhabitants of Bulgaria live under the threshold of the poverty.
The unemployment reaches very tall percentages, the population is decreasing, the economy is very critical.
The capital Sofia is a beautiful city but the difficult economic and political situation of the nation create uncertainty, danger and that don't stimulate to the visit.
