Migrace Čechů do Bulharska – tzv. „česká invaze“

Abstract

This article is focused on Czech migration to Bulgaria particularly between years 1878 (after the liberation of Bulgaria from under Turkish domination) and 1918 (when most of the migrants from Bulgaria rather returned to the newly established Czechoslovakia). The Czech migration in this period is referred as „Czech culture ocupation“ or „Czech invasion“. The migrants who were mostly ecomically motivated to come and build the newly created states – built infrastructure, founded new research and art institutions, built government (judiciary, education), etc.), helped revive cultural, scientific, political and economic life in Bulgaria.
