Bulgarians

The Bulgarians (Bulgarian: българи, bǎlgari, IPA: [bɤ̞ɫɡɐri]) are a nation and South Slavicethnic group, who are native to Bulgaria and neighbouring regions. Bulgarians have lived between the Upper Danube, the Aegean, Adriatic, and Black Seas in southeastern Europe.

According to the DNA tests of a number of Bulgarians, they are least distanced from(or most related to) neighbouring Romanians, Macedonians and Serbs, while the Bulgarians, along with other peoples labelled as South Slavs are overall distant from their fellow North Slavic linguistic relatives, whereas more related to some local European nations speaking unrelated languages. Overall, Eastern and Western European nations usually mainly share the same Indo-European kinship, but at a higher frequency more recent kinship(haplogroups) with the nations of their region, making Bulgarians most distanced from far-Western European nations. The diversity is mainly affected by the paternal lineage because the maternal lineage in comparison has undiverse distribution throughout Europe.

Macedonians (Bulgarians)

Macedonians or Macedonian Bulgarians (Bulgarian: Македонски българи or Mакедонци), sometimes also referred to as Macedono-Bulgarians or Macedo-Bulgarians is a regional, ethnographic group of ethnic Bulgarians, inhabiting or originating from Macedonia. Today, the larger part of this population is concentrated in Blagoevgrad Province but much is spread across the whole of Bulgaria and the diaspora.
