Born in the Carpathian-Danubian-Pontic space, the Romanian people, descending from the Dacians and the Romans, represents in the ethno-cultural space of Europe one of the oldest people, having according to the historian Nicolae lorga, "roots which are four times millennial"
Your Su"roots which are four times millennial".
Forced to suffer the wild attacks of migratory
people for a long time, the Romanians constituted
themselves into independent states in the 14th
century by uniting the existent pre-state
territories. Although historic circumstances
prevented the forming of a unique Romanian state
for a long time there have always existedbtitle Here04/19/23 www.brainybetty.com

In 1859, as a result of an immense internal
effort and a favorable external context, the
Union of Moldova and Wallachia was achieved
by the election of Alexandru loan Cuza as
Prince of both states. "The Small Union" was
consolidated by a reforming work which
brought the newly formed state closer to
Europe and enabled it to make itself known in
external affairs. Iasi was the city that made the
first steps towards the unification. The decisive
step towards the constituting of the Romanian
Unitary National State was taken during the
year 1918. By uniting all the Romanian
territories some of which had been under
foreign rule: Basarabia, Bucovina, Banat and
Transilvania, the Great Union was
accomplished in Alba lulia on December
1st, 1918. Iasi was the Center for resistance during the World
War I. Here was initiated the Great Union. The anti-Communist
revolution of December 1989 showed the Romanians' option for
democracy and liberty. Thoroughly European, Romania has
given the world cultural patrimony great personalities: the
scholar Dimitrie Cantemir, the sculptor Constantin Brancusi, the
musician George Enescu, the inventor Henri Coand, the
�
diplomat Nicolae Titulescu, the historian Nicolae lorga, the
dramatist Eugen lonescu, the historian Mircea Eliade, the
mathematician Grigore Moisil. Many of them have their lives
strongly related to Iasi City. Representing an oasis of Latinity in
this part of the world, the Romanians confirm the statement
made by the Romanian historian Nicolae lorga: "We have
remained Romanians because we could not part from the
memory of Rome".
