"Mila Rodino" (Bulgarian: Мила Родино, say: MIL-ə RAW-din-oh, meaning "Dear Motherland") is the national anthem of Bulgaria. It was originally a song written and composed by a author and scientist named Tsvetan Radoslavov in 1885, while fighting in the Serbo-Bulgarian War. It was first adopted in 1964 as the national anthem of the People's Republic of Bulgaria with different words. Then when Communism came to an end in Bulgaria in 1991, the Constitution of Bulgaria made "Dear Motherland" the national anthem once again, and has been to this day.[1][2]
