  Stefan Stambolov - LoveToKnow 1911
STEFAN STAMBOLOV (1854-1895), Bulgarian statesman, was born on the 31st of January 1854 at Trnovo, the ancient Bulgarian capital, where his father kept a small inn.
Under Turkish rule it was impossible to obtain a liberal education in Bulgaria, and young Stambolov, after attending the communal school in his native town, was apprenticed to a tailor.
On the abdication of Prince Alexander (Sept. 8) Stambolov became head of a council of regency, with Mutkurov and Karavelov as his colleagues; the latter, however, soon made way for Jivkov, a friend and fellow townsman of the first regent.

 Bulgaria - DECADES OF NATIONAL CONSOLIDATION
Stambolov brutally suppressed an army uprising in 1887 and began seven years of iron control that often bypassed the country's democratic institutions but brought unprecedented stability to Bulgaria.
In a masterful diplomatic stroke, Stambolov represented the insurrection to the Turks as an example of potential chaos that could be avoided by minor concessions.
Stambolov thus gained solid church support and an overwhelming victory in the 1890 election, which legitimized his government among all Bulgarian factions and reduced the threat of radical plots.

Stambolov secured Aleksandâr's return, but the fawning way in which Aleksandâr attempted a reconciliation with the Russian Tsar enraged Stambolov, and the prince's position became so untenable that in September 1886 he was forced to abdicate.
Stambolov, however, had to initiate a repressive regime in order to get these changes accepted by the country, and an uprising by Russophile army officers in 1887 was mercilessly supressed.
Stambolov, the only politician with the stature to challenge the court, was killed by Macedonian terrorists – possibly with Ferdinand's connivance – in 1895.

In those circumstances Stefan Stambolov, then chairman of the National Assembly, with no effort out of the way and aided by provincial garrison troops loyal to the prince, succeeded in engineering a counter-coup which brought the prince back to Sofia.
Its prime minister Stefan Stambolov used his iron hand to smother the Russofile army and political opposition in the country.
The election of a prince and the emergence of a 'strong man' at the head of the government (Stefan Stambolov was known for his revolutionary past and for his determination at the time of the counter-coup) had the acute crisis attenuate.
