Talk:Bulgarian royal family

Untitled

What justification there is to allege in the box that their nationality is German?

Their citizenship seems to have been Spanish since asylum and marriage. On the other hand their citizenship and nationality is Bulgarian. Simeon became its Prime Minister, a feeat not available to others than Bulgarian citizens.

If someone means their ethnical composition, either Simeon's or Ferdinand I's, German is a too long shot.

Simeon was born as Bulgarian national, of an Italian mother and a Bulgarian father. His language is and was officielly Bulgarian. Mother's tongue is Italian. Father's tongue was Bulgarian. (Father's mother was Italian...)

Ferdinand I was born in Vienna, as a child of a French mother. His mother's tongue was French. Which was, at that time, general language of aristocracy. No doubt that was the language Ferdie learned firtest and mostest.

Ferdinand's father's nationality then was Hungarian. As was the father's mother's tongue. They resided in Vienna, as the father served in Austro-Hungarian army.

The biggest part of the ethnicity of Simeon's is actually Italian. A fourth or almost however from Montenegro, a Southern Slavic area. Some drops, perhaps as mmuch as a fourth, French. Very little drops from Germany, and at least as much from Hungary.

You have to go back to Ferdinand's father's father before you find any who was any sort of German. That means that Simeon's grandfather's grandfather was the most recent properly German in the pedigree. The nationality should be corrected, or the whole nationality-entry erased away.
