Why is this country still 3rd world despite being in EU?
>>225023031Another hivpvn busted
>>225023044Bucharest is basically first world but is surrounded by Congo tier countryside. It’s not that different from Russia.
>>225023044>Romania shares land borders with five countries: Ukraine, Moldova, Hungary, Serbia, and Bulgaria
>>225023044romanians have too much indian genetics
>>225023068I mean they didn't have a chance
>>225023059maybe it was true 15 years ago but Romania is really developing and changing fast, even in rural areas
>>225023095vpn off, Cyganescu
>>225023117I didn't say they reached some ultradeveloped status there but they're much better than you think, you can see on google street view. https://maps.app.goo.gl/BCGt7D5g3vET42rz7what else you need?
>>22502314240 out of 85 of Russia’s federal subjects have higher HDI than Romania sans Bucharest. Moscow and Bucharest have essentially the same HDI. It’s literally just Russia with more gypsies.
>>225023170Just compare any town in Pidmoskovya to any town in Bucharest vicinity and you will be a stark difference in favor of Romania
>>225023044No clue
>>225023181I just had a look . Russia looks a hundred times better. Plus the people there look fitter and kinder.
>>225024923Alright but when are you taking the vpn off

>>225023044Isn't it just an Indian colony?Wonder what Romans saw in it.Balkans in general.
>>225025384>Wonder what Romans saw in it.not much. just look at this map of roads in the roman empire - they basically kept colonies in transylvania and had settlements along the danube and by the black sea and that's it

>>225023044Something fascinatic about countries around the world that have oil but are generally poor and don't invest in industry to getting advantage of it.
>>225026176kinda weird how they were not interested in Wallachia, it has the most fertile soil in this part of Europebtw, how do Hungarians see their Roman heritage? is it something you're proud of? I thought that your bath culture originates from Roman thermae but I then learnt that it was actually brought to you by Turks
>>225026434>kinda weird how they were not interested in Wallachia, it has the most fertile soil in this part of EuropeThey were going for the mines, not for fertile soil.
>>225026456that's why i think it's weird, after all grain supplies were crucial for Rome and that's why Egypt was the most important province of the empire, the country often suffered when delivery chains were broken. That's why it would be natural for them to strive to secure Wallachia as their breadbasket.
>>225026500Brother Wallachia was literally on the outskirts of the empire (if it were taken), prone to raids, vulnerable position. They had Gaul and Sicily as backup breadbaskets. Romans did not struggle with food that much past a certain point.
>>225026598isto tako je bilo u Vojvodini?
>>225026697Nije rimska vojvodina hranila carstvo, i da, dobar deo Balkana su jebali varvari konstantno jedno 700 godina, dok Srbi nisu formirali centralizovane, jake drzave.
>>225023044I am thankful for Romania's existence, because it shows how the luckily positioned Meds would fare if they were not so luckily positioned, which in turn shows it's not Slavs' inherent shittiness that keeps our countries down, it's just the misfortune of being located in the cursed lands of Bad Europe.I dream of a Slavic nation located in the tutorial difficulty area that is Western Europe. It could be great, it could mog everyone.
>>225026922>Romania>MedsThere's no such thing as a med race even, but I see the general point.
>>225026434>how do Hungarians see their Roman heritage? is it something you're proud of? we see Roman heritage as an interesting part of the local history of the land, not something that we have organic ties to. Roman sites like Aquincum, Savaria, Gorsium, Sopianae and others are well-preserved, visited, and valued as archaeological treasures, and we also like to credit our winemaking traditions to the Romans, but that's about it. >I thought that your bath culture originates from Roman thermae but I then learnt that it was actually brought to you by Turkswell you're right and wrong at the same time. medieval Hungarians did use the thermal springs discovered by the Romans for healing and bathing purposes, and the church would later build hospitals next to such springs, while the court of King Matthias in Buda was famous for its opulent bath houses - but it was during Turkish times when the construction of public baths really got going.
Romania is soulful as fuck, very nice, would visit once.https://www.tema.ru/travel/romania.2015.1/https://www.tema.ru/travel/romania.2015.2/Pics from these pages are from 2015
