The founders of the Bulgarian Literary Society in 1869 laid the foundations of the first institution of Bulgarian statehood even before the Liberation, said Bulgarian Ambassador to Romania Radko Vlaykov on Wednesday during the celebrations in Braila marking the 155th anniversary of the Literary Society, which later turned into the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences (BAS).
