The term all Bulgarians was added in the 14th century following the loss of many Bulgarian-populated territories and signified that the monarch in Tarnovo was the emperor of all Bulgarian people, even those who lived beyond the country's political borders.
Mõiste kõigi bulgaarlaste lisati 14. sajandil pärast paljude bulgaarlastega asustatud territooriumite kaotamist ja tähendas, et monarh Tărnovos oli kogu Bulgaaria rahva tsaar, isegi nende, kes elasid riigi poliitiliste piiride taga.
