Hi airorangefire and welcome to Peer Review.
If you'd like to take a look at the links on this page: C45
you will have some idea what kind of entries are acceptable for countries of the world.
This is a huge task you have taken on, the entry on Sofia which was accepted by the Editors yesterday might be of interest to you, and you may also link to it: A11464436
You need to read the <./>writing-guidelines</.> because first-person references are not allowed.
Here's the BBC overview of Bulgaria, if you'd like some more info on the country to work into your entry.

If you want any more help just shout.

This is good! As you say, it is short, but it is better to have something than nothing.
Since there is so little of this, it would be easy enough to convert it into GuideML, the Guide's internal markup language. This will allow you to put headers onto it (should you wish) and to put those footnotes into proper footnotes. Proceed as follows:
Edit the Entry.
Put before every paragraph and at the end of every paragraph. Make sure to use an uppercase P. Click on the GuideML selection button and then click on the Change Style button beside it. If all goes well yuou should see your entry displayed with no error messages. Then click on Update. Your entry is now in GuideML and you can do some fancy things
This is a header
This is a footnote.
This is some bold text.

There are some spelling mistakes, all that can be ironed out though. But one has me really puzzled - what do you mean when you say someone may steal your soul?

I think this is a very good start - my first entry was on Andorra, and was five times as long and ten times as dull
I'd just like to see a little about what is culturally unique about Bulgaria. Any famous musicians, sportspeople or artists you could mention - even if they're only well-known in Bulgaria? A smidge more history would be nice too.

Thank you all for the comments....the entry was really written just for fun...I didn't mean to do something detailed. And furthermore this is not an ordinary guide right, so I believe the most important is not the storry bu t the way you tell it to the others?Anyway I will probably work on the entry, unfortunately I don't have much free time right now so it may not come in the near future...

As you're not intending it to be the 'definitive guide to Bulgaria', perhaps some mdification of title might be appropriate? Perhaps something like 'Impressions of Bulgaria'

I'm torn between this Entry being pickable because it would fill a geographical hole in the Guide, and the fact that it's not there yet.
But if it's not there yet, the first becomes irrelevant. It's close to, but not there
