Yesterday and today are days off in Bulgaria, because today (the 6th of September) is the Unification Day.
On the 6th of September 1885 Eastern Rumelia and the Principality of Bulgaria were united into Bulgaria :) You can see on our map now there is a mountain (Stara planina mountain) that devides Bulgaria into south and north part. Back then, before the unification, the south part was called Eastern Rumelia (it was an Ottoman province then) and the north part was the Principality of Bulgaria.
