Vladimir is mainly remembered for his attempt to eliminate Christianity in Bulgaria and the reinstitution of paganism.
This event is written of by Constantine of Preslav in his Didactic Gospel.
Vladimir starts the process of destroying the Christian temples and persecuting the clergymen, because he regards them as instruments of Constantinople and its efforts to influence the Bulgarian kingdom.
However, Vladimir Rasate's actions are not well received by the population and the aristocracy, and he is supported by only a few of the boyars.
