Τραγούδια της ευρύτερης Θράκης, δηλ. από την Δυτική Θράκη (Ελλάδα), Ανατολική Ρωμυλία (νότια Βουλγαρία) και Ανατολική Θράκη (Ευρωπαϊκή Τουρκία). Thrace is a region of North-Eastern Greece. In ancient times Thracians was a special tribe, relative to Greeks, but not Greek. Gradually Thracians adopted Greek language and traditions and became part of Greece. Modern Thrace is devided: Greece have the western part, Turkey the eastern part and Bulgaria the northern part. In the begining of 20th century, Greeks from eastern and northern Thrace, forced to leave their homes and came as refugees to Greece. But they kept their Greek traditions and songs. The same happened with Bulgarians that used to live in Greek and Turkish part of Thrace.
