Edit summary
[edit]Kandi, I will send the full edit summary here as it wasn't saved.
- The Late Medieval Balkans: A Critical Survey from the Late Twelfth Century to the Ottoman Conquest, page 55: "Unlike the First Bulgarian State, Kalojan's state did not extend beyond the Danube".
- Cumans and Tatars Oriental Military in the Pre-Ottoman Balkans, 1185–1365, page 138-139: "in 1241–2 [...], the territories east and south of the Carpathians fell under Tatar overlordship"; page 148: "The future Wallachia was a typical frontier area, and the process of unifying the small Romanian voivodates took place in the course of constant conflict between two great powers, the Hungarian Kingdom and the Golden Horde".
I also propose that we continue discussing this issue through here. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 01:24, 19 December 2020 (UTC)
- What I have found by now by Hubchik: Any Bulgarian control over the trans-Danubian regions was obliterated by the. Mongol-Tatar devastation of Bulgaria and the Vlah-inhabited regions in 1241-42. in The Balkans: From Constantinople to Communism, Author D. Hupchick, Springer, 2002, ISBN 0312299133, p. 78. But I am not sure what was the situation a century later. Jingiby (talk) 05:11, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
- I do not object that the Second Bulgarian Empire may have been able to control parts of Wallachia at some point in history. However, I highly doubt that this happened after the Mongol invasion and especially during the years 1300-1322, shortly after the formation of the Wallachian principality. Hungarian influence was undoubtedly bigger than the Bulgarian one in this period. Super Dromaeosaurus (talk) 13:33, 24 December 2020 (UTC)
