"The Beginning of the Treaty in the Bulgarian State V - VII Century", part one, is an in-depth study that presents a serious analysis of a wide range of historical sources for the period 5th - 7th century, seen through the eyes of the jurist, who focuses on the Treaty of 448 between Byzantium and the Hunnic Empire. The authors investigate the question of whether Bulgaria of Isperih was the legal successor to the territorial rights established by this treaty, tracing the continuity in the ruling power, both on the basis of genealogical continuity and in the continuity of the existence of the social organization of the ancient Bulgarians and other tribes and peoples, participated in the ethnogenesis of Bulgaria of Isperih, combined with a permanent territorial presence. The work explores a period of Bulgarian history that is poorly studied, both by historical and legal science, related to the process of the emergence of Bulgarian statehood, namely the time before the establishment of Bulgaria of Isperih. The topic is presented in a dynamic, imaginative, accessible for reader style.
The monographic work offers a new view and light on the chronological framework of the rulers from the earliest Bulgarian history.
