  Omurtag of Bulgaria Information
Omurtag or Omortag (Bulgarian: Омуртаг) was ruler of Bulgaria from 814 to 831.
When Omurtag succeeded his father Krum, he may have been inexperienced, and the affairs of state may have been initially conducted by other members of the royal family, such as Dukum and Cok, who are recorded as persecutors of the Christians in the Byzantine sources.
At home Omurtag undertook large scale construction, intended to both restore his capital Pliska, which had been destroyed by the Byzantines in 811, and to foster the development of a number of regional centers, palaces, and fortifications.

Khan Omurtag, who succeeded his father Krum to the throne in 814 seems to have drawn wisdom from these words.
Khan Omurtag, though willing to make peace with his neighbors, waged successful wars against the Frankish Empire and the Khazars, and the new borders of the Bulgarian state were established further northwest near Belgrade and Branichevo.
The Khan erected another fortified palace on the Danube, indicative of his self-confidence as a ruler and of the prosperity of his state.

Omurtag waged successful wars against the Frankish Empire and the Khazars, and the new borders of the Bulgarian state were established further northwest near Belgrade and Branichevo.
Omurtag's rule was firm, whoever dared to encroach on Bulgaria's territory or to impair the power of the state was punished severely.
Clearly this was Omurtag's attempt to merge the Thracian hero-horseman worship with the Bulgars.

Krum’s son, Omurtag, was still too young to be put into power as the next Kana Subigi, so Khan Dukum took control of the Bulgarian Khanate.
Kana Subigi Omurtag chose however to watch and evaluate the situation since his hands were tied with interests in the encroaching Magyars to his northeast.
Knaz Enravota (the eldest of the three sons), and Knaz Svinitse, the next in line, were not chosen to succeed their late father probably because Malamir was born of Omurtag’s favorite wife (or by the primary wife).

 The Bulgars were Christians even before 865 AD
On his golden medallion khan Omurtag is portrayed with a crown with a cross, and another cross in his hands.
The word ‘God’ was also used by Omurtag at the building of his palace: “Let God gives him to live for 100 years.” If Omurtag was a pagan, he would mention Tangra instead.
There are found Christian seals belonging to prominent pre-865 AD state officials - such as Bajan, Khumir, Bogatur khana Joan, and Mavr, the latter supposedly being the youngest brother of Asparukh and Kuber.

From the ninety-two stone inscriptions from 8-9 centuries, during the rule of Tervel (701-718), Krum (802-814), Omurtag (814-831), Malamir (831-836), Presian (836-852), and Boris (852-889), the oldest is the one from the rocks at Madara Rider.
The most important from the original stone inscriptions remains the one left by Omurtag.
Khan Omurtag caused one of the stone columns of the Church of the Forty Saints and Martyrs in Tqrnovo to bear a stirring inscription, a monument to the philosophical and ethical thought and deep insight of a people aware of their historical immortality, an excerpt of which appears below.

This is an Avar title signifying, 'The Emperor', and would have most likely been used by those who had put under foot the Avars or those who had at least thrown off Avar rule to set up their own territory.
Such persons would definitely include Krum and his son Omurtag, although Omurtag is also called, Kana Subigi Omurtag, which means 'Highest Khan Omurtag' on monuments of his day.
This is a known, Hunno-Bulgar title and Omurtag used it in front of his name when it was inscribed on monuments of his day.

Khrum's heir, the pagan Khan Omurtag (814-831), whether because he noticed Kinamon's influence on his elder sons or simply out of enmity towards his Christian faith, tried to force Kinamen to take part in an idolatrous banquet.
When Kinamen resolutely declined, Omurtag had him tortured and thrown into a dungeon where he languished for many years.
Perhaps fearing that his elder sons had been influenced by Kinamon's Christianity, Omurtag appointed his youngest son Malemir as his successor.

 notes from Bulgaria
Just about every town in Bulgaria has a special town day, except that in the past Omurtag would just choose a day every year to throw a little party and consider it done.
So the astronaut congratulated the town, some guy who wrote a song about Omurtag came out to sing it, and then some priests came out to bless the flag.
I always find it fascinating that priests are always called to bless something for official town ceremonies, student graduations, etc. Especially since Omurtag, with a population of just about all ethnic Turkish and Roma, is no more than 10% Christian.
