Why does everyone meme and talk about the HRE and other meme entities, but nobody talks about the Bulgarian Empire, the Bulgarians were the only ones who could use the title Caesar, given to them by the Byzantines. They had a large and powerful Empire and defeated the Byzantines on several occasions. They were the first who got a "national" church, ruled by themselves, neither by Rome nor Constatinopole. They would be a constant thorn in the Byzantines side. Can we discuss this underrated Empire?

Because while cool it was terribly inconsistent in its conquests. And while apparently they had advanced culture, they left very little behind. So yeah until solid evidence to the contrary is found, the Bulgarian empires were cool but ultimately inconsequential to European history unlike HRE

You mean Western European? The Bulgarians were very influential in the Balkans tho, they created the first Slavic alphabet, and united and consolidated the Slavs. But i see what you mean, but, on the other hand what have the HRE ever done for us?

Really? Because as far as I know they had absolutely nothing to do with the first Slavic alphabet if you are referring to the Glagolitic, it was made by a couple of Byzantines and intended for the Slavs in Moravia. Which even in the map you posted is not in the borders of the empire. They did however create the Cyrillic later.

Do people here ever discuss Great Moravia?
