Referring to Napoleon's France, where the link instead goes to modern France.

[edit] Comments

Stan, perhaps you sholdn read the following before changing my submission again. Eastern Rumelia rebeled on the 6.9.1885 and declared itself part of the Principality of Bulgaria. The Prince of Bulgaria recognized this a few day days later and in 1886 the Union was recognized by a Great powers conference.

[edit] Northern Thrace

region known to all its inhabitants - Bulgarians, Greeks and Ottoman Turks - as Northern Thrace.
