- Source: List of Bulgarian regents
This is a list of Bulgarian regents. A regent, from the Latin regens ("one who reigns"), is a person selected to act as head of state (ruling or not) because the ruler is a minor, not present, or debilitated.
Middle Ages
Kavhan Isbul was regent after the death of Khan Omurtag, when his successor Khan Malamir was still a minor. He was also regent of Presiyan I, the minor nephew of Malamir.
On behalf of the infant king Кoloman I Asen (1241–1246), the country was ruled by a regency. When he died, a regency council led by Irina Komnina ruled on behalf of King Michael II Asen from 1246–1253.
A regency council on behalf of Ivan IV Smilets headed by his mother Smiltsena and despot Eltimir ruled from 1298–1299.
