1875 CE

The Ottomans’ execution of revolutionary leader Vasil Levski had temporarily shattered the Bucharest-based Bulgarian Revolutionary Central Committee (BRCC), but the committee resumes its activities when Georgi Benkovski joins its leadership in 1875.

By this time, the political atmosphere of the Balkans is charged with revolution, and the Ottoman Empire looks increasingly vulnerable: Britain, Russia, and Austria-Hungary are growing concerned about the implications of these trends for the European balance of power.
