Latest romania Frequently Asked Questions:
Has anyone ever been to Romania? Bucharest? IF so ho is it over there? Thank you.
Answer:Dear boo, I am from Bucharest. Romania is a great country, partly because it's where I was born (so I'm biased) and partly because the people are nice. Before communism, Bucharest used to be known as the Little Paris of the East. It was a beautiful city. Right now, you will see a lot of construction because the president is trying to finish what the communists started. The two positive things - I think - the commies did in Bucharest are the Casa Poporului, second in size to the Pentagon, and the sewer system under the Dambovita river. Now, Romania is going through a transitional period as communism fell in 1989. You still have a lot to enjoy - in the city and at the beach the clubs and restaurants, and in the country there are various monasteries, palaces and natural wonders to see. The people are nice. The worst thing that can happen to you in big cities is pick pocketing. But that's in any big city. The food is also great. I recommend eating some Romanian mici (sausage like delicious things) and papanasi (awesome desert). In addition, we have many different colors among our people - blond blue eyed, dark, Chinese, Middle Easterners and, most recently, Black (or mixed - Romanian mother & African father). I am glad to see our country growing and to see all the different colors without racism. If you want to see a positive video on it, go to youtube and search for "a world without Romania". It's posted by addyk2003. It will give you some really cool information about our people and it's in English. Don't take it the wrong way; the video is just trying to "sell" Romania to people who don't know it. It's not ethnocentric as some would have you believe. We're new at this "selling"/marketing thing as in communism one had no right to open a business. Most of all, I think you're wise to ask as opposed to assume. It shows you have an open mind.
By choosing to let Romania join the European Union, there are economic advantages because they have low cost labor and their tax system is brilliant for new businesses. However, on the social hand we have been invaded by gypsies and the criminality ratio invonving Romanians skyrocketed throughout Western Europe. So what is better for Europe? Economic or Social benefits? According to the EU, it seems like they don't give a damn to social factors when they bring changes to any European agreement.
Answer:Did you know the Nazis massacred gypsy's during the holocaust. "The sterilization of Gypsies was started as early as 1933 while camps were being established by the Nazis to contain Gypsies at Dachau, Dieselstrasse, Mahrzan and Vennhausen. The vast majority of Jews were to suffer the same indignities as the Roma. Scholarly estimates of deaths in the Sinti and Roma genocide range from 220,000 to 500,000 [8] although Ian Hancock challenges this figure and puts the estimates as 500,000 to 1,500,000.[9]" I think you should remember this before stereotyping all gypsys, thats dangerous and has lead to genocide before. Have the gypsys committed genocide against your ppl? I think not.
If Romania lose by 3 goals against Holland and Italy and France draw their game the all three teams would be on 2 points and have a minus 3 goal difference. How would they do a penalty shoot out 3 ways??? They normally do it after the match but Romania would not be there.
Answer:romania lost against holland by 2-0 and italy defeated france with the same score (2-0) :) so romania alongside france were eliminated.
