Boris III ascended the Bulgarian throne following the abdication of his father, Ferdinand I. His reign began shortly before Bulgaria's defeat in World War I, which significantly influenced his early leadership.

Initially, he navigated the complex post-war landscape, focusing on national unity and stability, as well as Bulgaria's foreign relations amidst rising tensions in the Balkans.
