National Day

Google search engine adorns Bulgarian flag 

Technology giant Google is once again congratulating Bulgaria on its National Day. The search engine's homepage features the Bulgarian flag. 

Bulgaria is celebrating 146 years since its liberation from Ottoman rule. On 3 March 1878, the Treaty of San Stefano was signed between Russia and the Ottoman Empire, ending the Russo-Turkish War. 

The 3rd March was declared a national holiday in 1990.
