In theory Bulgarians are undoubtely Slavic, because we speak a Slavic language and have a Slavic culture.However most Bulgarians are confused about it, nationalists (most nationalists here are idiots though) identify themselves as descendants of proto-Bulgarians, historians fully deny the Slavic assimilation and claim proto-Bulgarians to have been culturally superior to the Slavic tribes settled in these lands .The average Bulgarian either doesn't care or doesn't know.
