Stefan Nikolov Stambolov was a Bulgarian Prime Minister and regent, as well as a journalist, revolutionary, and poet. He is regarded as one of the most influential and well-known “Founders of Modern Bulgaria,” and is frequently referred to as “the Bulgarian Bismarck.”
In 1875 and 1876, he was involved in the planning of the Stara Zagora revolt as well as the April Uprising. After Stanko Todorov, Boyko Borisov, and Todor Zhivkov, Stambolov was one of the country’s longest-serving prime ministers. Despite being chastised for his autocratic practices, he was a driving force behind economic and cultural improvement in Bulgaria throughout the Balkan Wars.
