Sratsimir (village)
Sratsimir ( bg, Срацимир; ro, Srațimir) has been a settlement since 1830. Its population comes from the villages in Ludogorie after the signing of the Treaty of Adrianople (1829). The settlers were tricked by the Russian authorities into settling in Moldavia, but on the way they found that there were many free and rich lands with chernozem in the area. In addition, the 20-mile Silistra region is under occupation by the Russian Empire as a guarantee for the implementation of the peace treaty with the Ottoman Empire, and in particular for the payment of reparations. Due to the fact that the emigrants were very awake, violent and rebellious, they settled and hid the village in the area of a wild forest, which is why the village was first called Ottoman-Turkish Kara Orman, which in English literally means Black Mountain. Until 1836, the land of the village was under de facto Russian control from Silistra (since 1837 the Medjidi Tabia fortress was built), which is why the ...

Polkovnik Lambrinovo
''Polkovnik'' (russian: полковник, lit=regimentary; pl, pułkownik) is a military rank used mostly in Slavic-speaking countries which corresponds to a colonel in English-speaking states and oberst in several German-speaking and Scandinavian countries. The term originates from an ancient Slavic word for a group of soldiers and folk. However, in Cossack Hetmanate and Sloboda Ukraine, ''polkovnyk'' was an administrative rank similar to a governor. Usually this word is translated as colonel, however the transliteration is also in common usage, for the sake of the historical and social context. ''Polkovnik'' began as a commander of a distinct group of troops (''polk''), arranged for battle. The exact name of this rank maintains a variety of spellings in different languages, but all descend from the Old Slavonic word ''polk'' (literally: regiment sized unit), and include the following in alphabetical order: # Belarus — # Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Montenegro and Ser ...
