Imagine the cosmic horror of being born Romanian. While the Portuguese explored the world, the Frenchmen advanved human thought, the Spaniards invented the novel and the Italians have the centre of the West as the capital, you are a comic relief country with a comic relief communist history and even your own demonym is cursed by God to be the exact same as the lowest of subcontinentals so that most people think you're identical. Romanians who emigrate assimilate faster than Celts do into Anglos. The Japanese make a famous game series about your country and name the principal characters Simon and Richter. Romanian didn't even really exist as a written language until the 19th century, so despite their location and early conversion to Christianity they were basically like Baltic/Finnic ooga boogas until recently. At least Bulgarians got their Cyrillic alphabet and Boris 1, Albanians got their Skanderbeg and Slovaks got their Svatopluk. Romania is like a black hole of history.
>>213592593 (OP)What do you want us to do? We were a small group of Roman survivors in post-apocalyptic Balkans. That we survived at all and became the biggest country here is a miracle.
DA DUMLA DUMLA DA TAKA DUMLA DUMLA DA
>>213592593 (OP)Don't Norwegians speak English amongst themselves? I think Romanians have done good enough to still have a country and a language despite being surrounded by Slavs.
>>213592903doesn't matter, it's still a horrifying thought
>>213592903It's a VPN HIVan, don't you see?
>>213594190Yes but unironically. We are in no way different in our origins than the French or Spanish for example. We are just further off geographically so we did not end up in the same cultural sphere after the end of Rome.
>>213592593 (OP)if otherwise world-changing Meds turn grim and irrelevant in Eastern Europe, imagine what Slavics would be like if they lived in Western Europe
we would be demigods reaching for the stars
>>213594306I meant origins more in the sense of how the ethnicity came to be rather than genetics. We are more "southward" shifted in that regard than Hungarians for example but I wouldn't call us meds since that term has a genetic connotation to me.

>>213592593 (OP)Norse states and most West European states stabilized by the year 1000. East Europe was fucked up by terrible Byzantine influence, post mongelfucked Kiev Rus, turkic steppe invasions, and the Ottoman Empire's influence. The region was practically part of "Tartary" as late as the time of Charlemagne which is why the Goths and Huns (like Attila) of the region could mysteriously "disappear" inexplicably. In such a region the miracle was to survive.
