This collective and personalized image has its historical roots.

Ivan is a Slavic form of the biblical image of [[Joan]] (John). On the other hand, [[Ivan the Terrible]], through [[Sophia Palaiologina]], is the heir to the old Roman state tradition, and his grandfather [[Ivan III of Russia]], who was named the first to adopt Byzantine symbolism and ceremonial.

Ivan the Terrible is the direct heir of a number of [[Bulgarian rulers]], including [[Konstantin Dragash]].

Before the establishment of the [[Tsardom of Russia]], the Russian lands adopted the word of God, books, writing, culture - from Bulgaria.

Magnate [[Michael Kantakouzenos Şeytanoğlu]], the [[Archon]] of [[Constantinople]], anticipates securing the recognition of the royal ([[Tsar]]) title for his distant relative and cousin Ivan the Terrible, with whom the two share common ancestors and relatives in the people of the [[Palaiologos]]. In 1589 the [[Russian Orthodox Church]] was recognized as an [[autocephalous]] [[patriarchate]]. <ref>[https://ift.tt/2PtLcJN Letter from Dionysius Rally to the Russian Tsar Fyodor of 1591 on his arrival with a letter of recognition of the patriarchal title of the Russian church head.]</ref>

On 3 March 1578 it was hanged Michael Kantakouzenos Şeytanoğlu. On this date exactly after three centuries Bulgarian independence was restored. On March 3, Bulgaria celebrates its national holiday.
