*****GK: The area from Okhrida northward is pretty
mountainous practically to the Danube... So it's only
a question of crossing the river. The Romanian plain
was not controlled by Slavs after the 7th century, but
by nomadic herdsmen (Onogur "concives" of the Bulgars,
Pechenegs et sim.) I see no reason why passage could
not have been "arranged" between them and the Romanian
pastoralists from the south. The First Bulgarian State
technically controlled the areas south and north of
the Danube until the end of the 9th century. Why
should it impede Wallachian movements? The latter were
their subjects.******
