On This Day (August 10) in 1913, Greece, Romania, Serbia and Montenegro signed a peace treaty with the defeated Bulgaria in Bucharest, which marked the end of the Second Balkan War. The agreement clearly defined the borders of Bulgaria with Romania and Serbia. The Second Balkan War began in late June 1913 when the Bulgarian 4th Army carried out a surprise attack on Serbian positions without the declaration of war. The cause was a disagreement among the Allies on the division of the territory liberated from the Turks in the First Balkan War, and the insistence of Bulgaria to gain much wider territorial expansion than the other members of the Balkan League. By the Treaty of Bucharest, Serbia got the territory of the Vardar Macedonia, previously liberated by the Serbian army in the First Balkan War.
