Description
English: Flag of the Ratniks

The Union of Warriors for the Advancement of the Bulgarianness (Bulgarian: Съюз на ратниците за напредъка на българщината, Sayuz na ratnitsite za napredaka na balgarshtinata), commonly known as just the Ratniks (Ратници, Ratnitsi) was a far-right Bulgarian nationalist organization founded in 1936. Its ideas were close to those of Germany's Nazis, including antisemitism and paramilitarism, but also loyalty to the Bulgarian Orthodox Church and the Monarchy and King Boris III of Bulgaria.

The Ratniks wore red uniforms in outright competition with the communists for the hearts and minds of the Bulgarian youth, and also badges bearing the Bogar: a Bulgarian sun cross, which became the symbol of the organization.

With the coming of the Red Army and the Bolsheviks into Bulgaria on September 9, 1944 which led to a coup d'etat on the same day, the Ratniks disappeared from the Bulgarian scene.
