The Bulgarian Legion (Bulgarian: Българска легия, romanized: Balgarska legiya, Serbian: Бугарска легија, romanized: Bugarska legija) was the name of two military bands formed by Bulgarian volunteers in the Serbian capital of Belgrade in the second part of the 19th century. Their ultimate goal was the liberation of the Bulgarian people from Ottoman rule through coordinated actions with the neighbouring Balkan countries.
