Ma'am's above article was obviously inspired by Jirecek's writings,I mean,there are surely a lot of things that doesn't fit here.
First of all,she speaks about the Asen's Uprising as if it was the most clear evidence for the Slavization of the Vlach nobility or at least part of it.
But in this case the Vlach warlords would have been only simple military tools ,acting on behalf of the Bulgarian boyars.
Another thing that the little princess seems to forget,is the fact that the Asen brothers ,as Cuman-Vlachs, most likely didn't come from the main cores of Romanianness,but most likely from the Wallati area,the Cuman bishopric of Milcov.
It explains why the Pope(meaning priest in Romanian) called him a "Roman"," we know that your ancestors came from Rome",because he was both a Vlach and a Catholic.
It is known the Wallati's zealous character,the Catholic chronicle mentions that they have fake bishops, converting the Germans and Hungarians from SE Transylvania (Burzenland)
In other words, the Wallati were a majority of Orthodox Vlachs,possibly led by a minority of Catholic Vlachianized Cumans or Vlacho-Cumans.
However,the strong religious activity of those Vlachs clearly indicates that they were at least autonomous and a better term for their relationship with the Vlacho-Cumans would be cohabitation.
Speaking of the Polaka's proposed Slavization of the Vlach rulers
In reality,it was quite the opposite, when these groups of Vlachs seized the power,they began a policy of cultural compatibilization,to achieve the elite's integration into the Bulgarian structures conjuncturally,in my words, these actions were only for the big guys,without affecting the masses of the Vlachs,that didn't understand anything from the Church Slavonic,especially, knowing their habits.
