Bulgovia

From Uncyclopedia, the content-free encyclopedia
Jump to navigation Jump to search
Wales's ongoing lawsuit is described by Bulgovian lawers as "frivolous" and "completely unfounded."

Bulgovia is one of the eight hundred small countries nestled in the Balkans. Originally these countries were little provinces nestled within the mountains, but all were taken over by Russia during the early 20th Century because of their precious furnuncle resources and their sturdy mountain women, whom it was believed would breed excellent hockey players. Its currency is the Bulg, and its national flag is like the Welsh flag only instead of blood red, the flag is bright crimson.

Independence[edit | edit source]

Bulgovia did not regain its independence until Communism fell, although it did not become aware of its independence from Wales until 1996, when a traveling furnuncle speculator stumbled upon the country and told them the news. Presently it encourages free enterprise and has started up a modestly successful economy based on trout and the sale of reed towelettes. Political divisions have since emerged, and fierce debates are presently being conducted in Parliament over whether Kirk or Picard should be on the new coinage.

Bulgovia's area is in the region of 350 square miles, most of which is mountainous terrain. As such Bulgovia has no football, Rugby or cricket teams, but it amongst the best for golf and skiing (not to be confused with streaking).

Bulgovia also has hallucinogenic mushrooms growing almost everywhere. A fact little known by tourists or random explorers or even the people of Bulgovia, who are content to sit around and watch Jesus stroll by, sharing a cigar with Richard Nixon.

Bulgovia Today[edit | edit source]

In recent years Bulgovia has finally gotten its trout back. Its economy is now largely trout export, tourism, mushroom farming, coca cola production and mining. Pastimes include long walks in the mountains and talking to the mountains, as strangely enough Bulgovia's mountains are among the only talking mountains in the world.

The present form of government is democracy, and the government is elected by the first past the post method, an archaic method only used in such third world countries as Scotland.

Communism is still missed by many citizens and fierce debate abounds about whether capitalism and freedom is as a good as living under rule of 5 metre tall giants and Russian-speaking cows. But despite all this, everyone venerates George Orwell for his courage and aid during the formation of their new government. No other man has sacrificed three eyes and their third arm for a country, that is sure.

The nation anthem is presently this, written at its founding and barely changed since.

Oh Bulgovia, I'm proud to say I'm from here, not a land of immense riches, not a land of sophistication, but we're bigger than Luxembourg

Oh Bulgovia, the trout leaps through your lake, and the mountains know astrophysics. We have done little, but at least we aren't trout-stealing Serbs.
