Bulgaria 2011
Having entered the E.U. in 2007, Bulgaria enjoyed average
growth of more than 6% between 2004 and 2008, thanks to significant amounts of foreign direct investment. With a population of 7.1 million, the country has made a relatively slow transition from communism, but its straight-talking, center-right Prime Minister Boyko Borissov continues to push economic and fi scal reforms, as well as anticorruption measures.
Bulgaria’s capital, Sofia, is a dynamic and modern European
city, where 2 million Bulgarians live and work. Home to a number of service industries, the capital is also attracting
