	Talk:Krum of Bulgaria - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		I just would like to point out a slight lack of coherence in the way the places are named.
		If it is being used Constantinople and not Istambul, shouldn't it be said Mesemvria instead of Nessebar?
		Since obviously Nessebar is less known than Istambul, maybe to avoid confussion it could be written like this: "Bulgarians attacked Mesemvria (now Nessebar)."
