People connected to Asparuh of Bulgaria
The Bulgar khan who carved out a state on the Danube in 681 and made it stick — the First Bulgarian Empire, born from steppe war-bands meeting Byzantine borderlands.
About
Asparuh led his people in the second half of the 7th century, a time when the eastern Roman frontier was porous and the steppe tribes were pushing west. In 681 he founded the First Bulgarian Empire, planting a polity that would outlast him by centuries. The name appears in sources as Ispor or Isperih as well, testament to the fluid orthography of early medieval chroniclers. What he built became the framework for a kingdom that would challenge Byzantium for generations.
