The Citadel of Power
The Citadel’s Significance
Tsarevets stood as the primary fortress of the Second Bulgarian Kingdom, perched upon cliffs overlooking the winding Yantra River. Its imposing stone walls guarded the heart of Bulgarian power, with access primarily from the west via a fortified rocky isthmus boasting three successive gates. Notably, the southeast portion of the fortress housed the Frenkhisarska Gate, linking Tsarevets to the district of the Frenky, home to foreign traders.
Situated along the south side of the west wall lies the Small Gate, or Asenova Gate, connecting Tsarevets to the “new town” and the neighboring hill Trapezitca. A central street, following a horizontal plane, interconnected all main gates and encircled the entire fortress, with smaller secondary streets branching off. District parish churches dotted the landscape, offering convenient access to the Tsar’s Palace and the Patriarchate. In front of the Palace, a Square served as a venue for receiving foreign delegates and hosting ceremonial events Private Tours Istanbul.
The Majesty of the Tzar’s Palace
Perched atop Tsarevets Hill, the Tzar’s Palace occupies a flat terrace encircled by its own fortress wall, with the primary entrance facing west towards the Square. Spanning an area of 4872 square meters, the Palace comprises throne halls in the western section and living quarters along the eastern side, including the Palace church. The southern section housed agricultural areas and food court buildings, delineated by a stone wall, all interconnected by spacious courtyards.
Three Construction Phases
Research reveals three distinct periods in the construction of the Palace. The initial phase likely saw the residence of a Byzantine superintendent. The second phase, under Tzar Ivan Asen The Second, witnessed significant reconstruction, elevating the structure to a royal palace. Finally, in the mid-14th century, during the reign of Tzar Ivan Alexander, further renovations reshaped the Palace to reflect the evolving needs of Bulgarian royalty.
Reconstruction Insights
Architectural reconstructions, spearheaded by B. Kuzupov, offer invaluable glimpses into the grandeur and layout of the Tzar’s Palace, shedding light on its historical significance and architectural evolution. From the central courtyard to the majestic throne halls, each aspect of the Palace speaks volumes about Bulgaria’s rich past and royal heritage.

Thinking about Mass Effect, as you do, and how I'm kind of sad that the way it's been engraved in pop culture has more to do with the way internet reacted to it at the time than what the actual game is about. Yes sure, it's about romance (and not that much all things considered) and it's pulpy (but not solely because of hot lady aliens), but it's also intricate worldbuilding that touches on a lot of sharp ideas, and a complicated tug-of-war between a genuine and vulnerable belief in reconciliation and community VS post 9-11 US military propaganda and steadfast belief in heroic exceptionalism, and the melancholic yet energizing mood, and the daring narrative systems, and so so much more than the 'We'll Bang OKs" and the "There's No Shepard Without Vakarian" and the whole ME3 ending situation
It's all there, but I'm sad the impact of the series is often reduced to (what I think is) the least interesting parts of its sum

Shoutout to the Rick salesmen who genuinely thought that C-137 and Morty Prime, while being actively under arrest, were good potential customers. Imagine Rick stopping and making the guards get his wallet out so that he could buy Morty a toy.

Two sides on Hegemony slavery :
Heard on Illium : "A batarian trading group has announced plans to sue the Citadel Council. The batarians claim slavery is an inextricable part of their caste system, and that by limiting the slave trade, the Council is violating their cultural rights. The indentured servitude market closed down three points, with representatives decrying the unwanted controversy."
Heard on Omega (the speaker is distinctly a batarian) : "The Fer'Lit Consortium is going ahead with its plan to sue the Citadel Council to remove unfair limits on the intergalactic [sic] slave trade. A Fer'Lit spokesman had this to say : 'Slavery is an inextricable part of the batarian caste system. By limiting the slave trade, the Council is limiting our cultural rights.' The Council is scheduled to hear arguments over the next few weeks. Fer'Lit representatives do not expect the Council to take the culturally-sensitive option."
Can we talk about how the Council is only limiting slavery, and only doing so in 2185 ?
