In 1940, due to the political situation, Scouting stopped its activities in Bulgaria. When the war ended, communists dominated the country and prevented Scouting from starting again. With the advent of Communism, Scouting was outlawed and the resources of the Scout organizations were confiscated and redistributed to the newly formed Communist youth organizations. After the collapse of the Berlin Wall, Scouting was reborn again in Bulgaria in [[1989]]. It was not until [[1995]] that a national Scout organization was created that conformed to WOSM requirements.
