Simeon the Great was a Bulgarian ruler who ruled Bulgaria from 893 to 927 during the First Bulgarian State. Simeon's successful wars against Byzantium and the Serbs led to the temporary expansion of Bulgaria over most of the Balkan Peninsula and dominance in Southeastern Europe. During the reign of Tsar Simeon, Bulgaria reached its greatest political, military and cultural power: it rested on three seas - Black, White and Adriatic; Simeon the Great had a title and position equal to the Byzantine basileus. He was the second ruler after Charlemagne to acquire a title equivalent to that of Byzantine Emperor; The Bulgarian Church won autocephaly; Bulgaria became the spiritual center of the Slavic world; the second Bulgarian capital - Veliki Preslav, became one of the main cultural centers of South-Eastern Europe and a city that rivaled Constantinople in its magnificence. Simeon's reign was also a period of cultural flourishing, called the Golden Age of Bulgarian culture.
