King Boris and Bulgaria's Alignment with Central European Powers

Turbulent Period Under King Boris

King Boris witnessed a series of premiers who faced overthrow or employed repressive measures against political rivals. Stambolisky, the head of the Agrarian Party, was the first such premier, making significant contributions to constructive economic policies like land reform. However, in 1923, a coup ousted the Stambolisky government, leading to his tragic murder.

Influence of Dr. Stoyadinovich in Yugoslavia

The ascent of Dr. Stoyadinovich, a pro-fascist leader in neighboring Yugoslavia, played a role in Bulgaria intensifying negotiations with Central European powers. Unable to seek assistance from the Soviet Union or neighboring countries, Bulgaria turned to Germany and Italy.

Strengthening Ties with Italy (1930)

In 1930, King Boris married Princess Giovanna, the daughter of the King of Italy, further cementing Bulgaria’s relations with Italy. The Balkan Conference of the same year aimed to prevent Bulgaria from reclaiming territory lost in the World War I peace treaty. The 1934 Balkan Pact, signed by Greece, Turkey, Yugoslavia, and Romania, pursued a similar goal City Tours Istanbul.

King Boris’s Absolute Rule (1935)

By 1935, King Boris established himself as an absolute sovereign, ruling without political parties and legal opposition. During his rule, trade with Germany progressively rose, reaching 67% of Bulgaria’s exports and 65% of its imports in 1939. These figures continued to climb during the war, as Bulgaria maintained ties with Germany in hopes of regaining lost territory. This hope materialized with the return of southern Dobrudja, forced back from Romania to Bulgaria.
