April 1879 CE

The democratic character of the constitution and sympathies of Liberal Party political leaders are at variance with the views of Bulgaria's first prince, Alexander of Battenberg, and with those of the Russian advisers who play a large role in his court.

From the beginning of his reign, Alexander opposes the liberal wing in Bulgaria and the Turnovo constitution.

He attempts to reconstruct Sofia's municipal council in 1879 and is told that not even the Turks would have dared to do that.
