almost since inception Romania was occupied by the Turks and were forced to pay ransom several times a year by sending young children into slavery to the Ottoman Empire, aside from crops and money. (the ancient Romanians the Dacian's were able to confront the Roman Empire for a while)

Young girls ended up in sex slavery in the arab "Harems" and the young boys ended up in "cannon feeder" soldiers called "Yenicers" which were the most feared Ottoman troops in the empire.

( BTW same fate was suffered by all of the Balkan countries and since there is deep resentment toward Muslim in those places. The Yugoslav war did not start out of thin air - not that I justify it)

The other part not occupied by the Turks was occupied by the Hasburg Empire or raided by the Tatars. The Hasburgs almost continuously held control until the 1900's.

Further Romania does not claim to be a "World Power" or to pretend that they invented "freedom, equality and democracy"

Keep in mind that the French invented Perfume ---- because they do not like to wash and therefore stink....... aside from designing the Devil Island near Guinea or honor killing in Europe or the guillotine and other fancy instruments of torture

Even DeGaule was a blown up ass with unjustified aspiration waiting under the safety of the Brit's until danger was over and walk triumphant into Paris ......... at a time that many from the few courageous French gave their life and suffered horrendous torture to liberate France from the Vichey (spl?) and Nazi occupation
