Pravets is a town in central western Bulgaria. Mountains surround it, which allows for a mild climate with rare winds. At the outskirt of the town there is a small lake used for fishing and recreational purposes. Most Bulgarians connect the town with the production of computers and the birthplace of Bulgaria's last socialist ruler, Todor Zhivkov.The first microprocessor factory in Bulgaria was situated in Pravets. These computers, which were also the first in Bulgaria, were named Pravetz-82 and had yellow and black keyboards.
