Does Bulgaria border the Mediterranean Sea?

Answer 1

Throughout periods of the history of Bulgaria the Middle Sea has been its natural west and south border. It completely lost its Mediterranean Shores after the Second World War. Bulgaria today has a marvellous east coast on the Black Sea, which is part of The Mediterranean basin. The cultute, cuisine, the climate, and the Folk Music of Southern Bulgaria are Mediterranean.

But to answer the principle question, No. There are numerous countries that do not border the Mediterranean Sea. Chile, Canada, the USA, Zimbabwe, India, China, and Russia, just to name a few, are countries that do not border the Mediterranean Sea.

Answer 2

No. Prior to World War I, Bulgaria included what is now the Greek province of Western Thrace and therefore had an outlet on the Aegean Sea (which is considered an arm of the Mediterranean). However, since the Treaty of Neuilly in 1919, Western Thrace belongs to Greece, cutting Bulgaria off to the Mediterranean.
