Dear Romanian,
I know Romanian is a Romance language like French and Italian but are Romanian people more similiar to the West or the mostly Slavic East?

God Smith,



Dear  God Smith,


Romanian language is similar to other romanic languages  because of the  influence of the Roman Empire that conquered  all lands from Europe and around the  Mediterranean sea between 27b.c.- 476 a.c.Romanian people are more similar to West and South-West countries because we have similar history and ancestors. Also, nowadays romanians  are the result of latins merging with dacs and tracs(our oldest ancestors).Until that time our language was slave but after that both our language and traditions have started to develop a romantic, latin side.
After the merging with the latins, there is no way back as we started to live by their rules and traditions for thousands of years to go.When the roman empire finally set us free,we were already accustomed with our new lives and continued living that way.It was a good experience for us because it made us what we are today.A stranger hearing our language will be confused and even think it's russian,but if you study it you will find out that it's a latin language that still has an under layer of slavic words.It's all because of our history and the nations that have dominated us in the past.
The people have traits from both slavic and western countries.We drink like russians(not as much tho) and we enjoy life as italians and french.
