Stara Zagora Uprising
The Stara Zagora Uprising (Bulgarian:Старозагорското въстание) was an uprising organized by the Bulgarian Revolutionary Central Committee against the Ottoman Empire in 1875. Though this uprising was largely unsuccessful, it would later serve as inspiration for the more successful April Uprising of 1876.
