In this previously Roman territory the dominating Avar and Bulgar
nomad class merged with the Slavonic peasantry into a national organism,
and powerful           States of Slav speech arose: but the real holders of

think that the Slavs themselves, the Croats, Serbs, (new-) Bulgars, Macedo-
Slavs became fit for war in the Avaro-Bulgar school.
