Answer:
They found out, that Turkey is a bigger inheritor of the Byzantine Empire, than Greece.
You don't believe me?
Ok, so here's the Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantine) in it's largest teritory ever (pink):
In the Bosphorus is situated one of the largest cities in the world, which happened to be the capital of the empire.
So here are Greece and Turkey:
As you can see, the capital of the empire is currently the Turkish city of Istanbul, and there are several other big cities, who are also on turkish teritory. Also, Turkey has a bigger territorial part from the empire, than Greece. In the same time, there are one or two big towns in Greece since then.
So, my guess is, that Greece aknowleged the fact, that they can never restore the Empire, since they are too weak to fight the Turks, and they decided to become friends with them, and to try and get something from us.
Sorry Greeks, but you should know better:

Bulgaria wasnt under nazi germans, Germany was the only one who promised to fufil her wishes.
300 years? Bi*ch, please ; )
Greeks under Roman occupation - since????
"you really don't wanna see maps of Hellenism throughout history.. you ll cry "
Well, I bet you cannot show me maps of a country named Greece so far away, can you?
"bulgaria under nazi germans 4 years. "
Thus spoke, well your information is obviously not correct. During Nazi Germany, not only that we were a free nation, we also had Dobrogea from Romania, entire Macedonia and northern coast of Greece in our land.
"so please dont compare yourself to greeks or turks, its becoming funny. "
Sevisenturk, furst Bulgarian nation was around 300 BC, after that, Volga Bulgaria was bigger than the Ottoman Empire ever was (in terms of Territory), and our current nation was created 1300 years ago. So this is a pretty big period if you ask me. And the 300 years under Eastern Roman Empire (not Greece), are not 300, but 160 years.
Fellow trols, please learn some shit at school.
Firstly, Bulgaria, in its history has never lost a flag to the enemy.
Secondly, Bulgaria was the only winnig country from the losing side in both World wars. Epic battles and it was the only state which was invited to the Antata winning celebration. (btw Greece was under Bulgarian occupation during WWII)
However, the only foreign general who is present in the hall of fame in the Great Britain history is a Bulgarian - Vladimir Vazov.
@thus spoke god
Das Deutsche Reich - our only friends throughout history. Just remember who was the occupied on the Balkans during WWI and WWII. Now go eat pork and dont interfere
"Firstly, Bulgaria, in its history has never lost a flag to the enemy."

poor bulgarian dreams!
@HercZDS...Croatians are actually one of the few, Tsar Simeon I didn't beat. But here, nobody say this! And it's a little bit stupid to compare RL with this game and this site is not for history lessons. Every nation has it's Gold Times. Ours are 681-1018, 1185 and 1396 (or 1422 it's not sure who of the two is correct) and 1878-1943, when the bolsheviki came into power.
