Sofia Liberation
On January 4 1878, Sofia the current capital of Bulgaria, was liberated from the Turkish yoke. In the course of the Russian-Turkish war, the troops of the Russian general Gurko were firmly advancing towards Sofia. The Turks made an attempt to put the town on fire, but this attempt was discomfited by foreign diplomats. On January 4, general Joseph Gurko managed to liberate the town without any fight after 491 years of Ottoman occupation. The next year, Sofia was proclaimed capital of Bulgaria. At that time, the towns population numbered only 12 000 people. Gradually, it began to increase, as the town turned in Bulgarias political, commercial and cultural center.
