 Theodore Peter of Bulgaria   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-17)
The change of name indicates an attempt to seek legitimacy through a connection with the sainted Emperor Peter I of Bulgaria, whose name was also adopted by earlier rebels against Byzantine rule in 1040 and 1072.
The eminent Bulgarian historian Vasil Zlatarski has drawn attention to the fact that under Byzantine rule Bulgaria proper was divided between a theme of Bulgaria (in the west) and a theme called Paradounabion/Paristrion and later Moesia (in the east).
This means that the "Vlachia" in the titles of "king/emperor of Bulgarians and Vlachs" or "king/emperor of Bulgaria and Vlachia" found in the correspondence between Peter IV's successor Kaloyan and Pope Innocent III is probably still the Byzantine theme of Moesia.
