    It's good to be back in shape.
    Now an easy and a hard one:
    1. Which is the first non-colonial major conflict where Maxim machine guns were used
    2. In how many wars during 19-20 century Bulgaria and Turkey were on the same side? Naming the wars is prefferable

    Nope, a real war, although it didn't last long. Hint- the war was just between Bulgaria and a neighboring country, but Istanbul was in certain relations with Sofia and nominaly the war was fought on it's behalf
