Abstract
As the civil war in the European part of the former Russian Empire was ending tens of thousands of refugees fled to Bulgaria where they constituted an infor-mal national minority that enjoyed the support of most of the host country’s political factions with the exception of the communists. The Russian émigré presence in Bul-garia, which had just experienced its Second National Catastrophe, i.e., defeat in World War I, led to the merging of two national traumas.
