A newspaper with name «Борба» was first published in 1943 in Tarnovo, Bulgaria. During the Soviet period, «Borba» was one of the central communist newspapers of the northern foothills of the Balkans and the Velikotyrnov region, published under the traditional slogan for this period: «Proletarians from the vsichki strani, get together!» (Proletarians of all countries, unite!). Translated into English, the name of the newspaper sounds like «Struggle». During the post-communist period, the newspaper went through a process of privatization. On the basis of her editorial team, the «Borba Publishing House» was organized, which eventually became an independent commercial enterprise (book publishing and advertising activities). In addition to publishing this newspaper, the editorial board publishes various printed materials: books, textbooks, brochures, calendars. It is a member of the Regional Press Association, known as «Bulgarian Association for Regional Media» (BARM).
