We drink one, two ... and we make Jokes with the Barkeeper it is two Girl’s Stefania and Georgiana.
Stefania don’t speak much English but Georgiana.
We speak about the Meeting and the Business and when we order a new beer that we ask her about Bucharest and the Life here.

After 3 a clock we pay and go sleep. I don’t can Sleep and go back to the Bar and speak more Time with her about his life and all.

I don’t remember all.

Ever Night we (my Colleagues and me) stay on the Bar and Speak and drink. She tell as we hard it is and how much salary she have and what all cost in Bucharest and we understand more and more the situation from the People. It is not easy.
This Life but she smil and have fun. The People enjoy his Life. I beleif this 2006.

After 5 Day we all go back. My Colleagues back to UK and i to Germany but i know that i must come back in two week´s and my company book in the same Hotel for me.

I see her back and we speak only on the Bar. After two day´s i have the first date with her. 2 Hour before she much go to Work. In the first Time I’m Interesting about her Life and what she doing. She tells me that she work from 20:00 a clock to 10 a clock in the morning and only one day she have free.

All the day she sleeps and don’t have Time for friend’s and don’t have money to go out. All the money she gives her Mama. That she must pay for all the same price we I in the Hotel. Now she must go to work and i go to and stay on the bar.

The next day I fly back to Germany. We speak all the night and i make one Photo from her and she say please send me this and she give me her Phone number.

I’m married and don’t think to this time on more about her only what I can do to help her. I print the Photo and put 50 Euro in the later and send her this.

I Say thank you and that she don’t misunderstand the money and hope that she can go to the hairstyle and relax by a massage.

The bar is very full and we don’t have time to speak after 2 a clock I give her the present and she is so happy about this. I never see so happy a girl to this time.

History of Romania

2008-05-31T09:28:00.000+02:00

In either 271 or 275, the Roman army and administration left Dacia, which was invaded by the Goths.The Goths lived with the local people until the 4th century, when a nomadic people, the Huns, arrived.The Gepidsand the Avars and their Slavic subjects ruled Transylvania until the 8th century. It was then invaded by Bulgarians, thereafter being incorporated into the First Bulgarian Empire (marking the end of Romania's Dark Age), where it remained part of until the 11th century. The Pechenegs, the Cumans and Uzes were also mentioned by historic chronicles on the territory of Romania, until the founding of the Romanian principalities of Wallachia by Basarab I around 1310 in the High Middle Ages, and Moldavia by Dragoş around 1352.
Bran Castle built in 1212, is commonly known as Dracula's Castle and is situated in the centre of present-day Romania. In addition to its unique architecture, the castle is famous because of persistent myths that it was once the home of Vlad III Dracula.
In the Middle Ages, Romanians lived in three distinct principalities: Wallachia (Romanian: Ţara Românească—"Romanian Land"), Moldavia (Romanian: Moldova) and Transylvania. Transylvania was part of the Kingdom of Hungary from the 10-11th century until the 16th century, when it became the independent Principality of Transylvania until 1711.
Independent Wallachia has been on the border of the Ottoman Empire since the 14th century and slowly fell under the suzerainty of the Ottoman Empire during the 15th century. One famous ruler in this period was Vlad III the Impaler (also known as Vlad Dracula or Vlad Ţepeş, IPA: ['tsepeʃ]), Prince of Wallachia in 1448, 1456–62, and 1476.In the English-speaking world, Vlad is best known for the legends of the exceedingly cruel punishments he imposed during his reign and for serving as the primary inspiration for the vampire main character in Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula. As king, he maintained an independent policy in relation to the Ottoman Empire, and in Romania he is viewed by many as a prince with a deep sense of justice, and a defender of both Wallachia and European Christianity against Ottoman expansionism.

Voroneţ Monastery built in 1488 by Stephen III of Moldavia (Stephen the Great) after his victory at the Battle of Vaslui.
The principality of Moldavia reached its most glorious period under the rule of Stephen the Great between 1457 and 1504. His rule of 47 years was unusually long, especially at that time - only 13 rulers were recorded to have ruled for at least 50 years until the end of 15th century. He was a very successful military leader (winning 47 battles and losing only 2), and after each victory, he raised a church, managing to build 48 churches or monasteries, some of them with unique and very interesting painting styles. For more information see Painted churches of northern Moldavia listed in UNESCO's list of World Heritage Sites. Stephen's most prestigious victory was over the Ottoman Empire in 1475 at the Battle of Vaslui for which he raised the Voroneţ Monastery. For this victory, Pope Sixtus IV deemed him verus christianae fidei athleta (true Champion of Christian Faith). However, after his death, Moldavia would also come under the suzerainty of the Ottoman Empire in the 16th century.
Michael the Brave (Romanian: Mihai Viteazul) was the Prince of Wallachia (1593-1601), of Transylvania (1599-1600), and of Moldavia (1600). Briefly, during his reign the three principalities largely inhabited by Romanians were for the first time united under a single rule. After his death, as vassal tributary states, Moldova and Wallachia had complete internal autonomy and an external independence, which was finally lost in the 18th century.

The name of Romania (Rumania or România) comes from Român (Romanian) which is a derivative of the word Romanus ("Roman") from Latin. The fact that Romanians have said the name is a derivative of Romanus (Romanian: Român/Rumân) is mentioned as early as the 16th century by many authors, including Italian Humanists travelling in Transylvania, Moldavia and Wallachia. The oldest surviving document written in the Romanian language is a 1521 letter (known as "Neacşu's Letter from Câmpulung"which notifies the mayor of Braşov about the imminent attack of the Ottoman Turks. This document is also notable for having the first occurrence of "Rumanian" in a Romanian written text, Wallachia being here named The Rumanian Land - Ţeara Rumânească (Ţeara from the Latin: Terra land). In the following centuries, Romanian documents use interchangeably two spelling forms: Român and Rumân. Socio-linguistic evolutions in the late 17th century led to a process of semantic differentiation: the form "rumân", presumably usual among lower classes, got the meaning of "bondsman", while the form român kept an ethno-linguistic meaning. After the abolition of serfdom in 1746, the form "rumân" gradually disappears and the spelling definitively stabilises to the form "român", "românesc".The name "România" as common homeland of all Romanians is documented in the early 19th century.This name has been officially in use since December 11, 1861.
English-language sources still used the term "Rumania", borrowed from the French spelling "Roumania", as recently as World War II,but since then the term has disappeared entirely.
