Bulgaria
"Републико наша, здравей!" "Republiko nasha, zdravey!" (Hail to the Republic!)

Words by: Krum Penev
Music by: Georgi Dimitrov
In use: 1944-1950

This anthem, in use between the abolition of the monarchy in 1944 and the establishment of a new anthem in 1950 after the communists firmly gained power, was composed by Georgi Dimitrov (the same as the co-composer of "Balgarijo Mila", but not the same as the communist leader by that name of that period.)
