==History==
[[cs:Nikopol]]
In [[Ancient Rome|Roman times]], it was a village in the province of [[Moesia]], first mentioned in 169. After the decline of the [[Roman Empire]], the town turned out to be located at the northern border of the [[Byzantine Empire]]. In 1059, it was named ''Nicopolis'', [[Greek language|Greek]] for "City of Victory". During most of the Middle Ages, it was part of the [[Bulgarian Empire]]. After the [[Siege of Tarnovo|fall of Tarnovo]] in 1393, the last Bulgarian Tsar [[Ivan Shishman of Bulgaria|Ivan Shishman]] defended what remained of the Empire from the fortress of Nikopol, where he was captured after the town was conquered by the Ottomans in 1395. Nikopol is therefore sometimes considered the capital of Bulgaria during these two years<ref>Map in the [[National Historical Museum (Bulgaria)]]</ref>. It was the site of the [[Battle of Nicopolis]], the last large-scale [[crusade]] of the Middle Ages, in 1396. At the fortress of Nicopolis, the united armies of Christian Europe headed by [[Kingdom of Hungary|Hungarian]] king [[Sigismund, Holy Roman Emperor|Sigismund]] and various [[Kingdom of France|French]] kinghts were utterly defeated by the Ottomans under [[Bayezid I]] and his [[Serbian Despotate|Serbian]] ally [[Stefan Lazarević]].

[[en:Nikopol]]
Under [[History of Ottoman Bulgaria|Ottoman rule]], Nikopol developed into an important military and administrative centre as sanjak, with a strong fortress and a flourishing economic, spiritual and political life, until it went into a decline during the 17th and 18th centuries. It was the centre of a district (''[[kaza]]''), but it was overtaken by [[Pleven]] as the regional centre of that part of the Bulgarian lands. Nikopol was captured by the Russians in the [[Battle of Nikopol]] in 1877. The [[Roman Catholic Diocese of Nicopoli]], which covers the entirety of [[Northern Bulgaria]], was historically based in Nikopol, although the present [[episcopal see]] is in [[Rousse]].
