LE by Bacx: The oldest glass icon in Romania is from the 15th century, and it is found in the National Museum of Art (the former Royal Palace), in Bucharest. The icon depicts the Virgin Mary and baby Christ and is named just like that "The virgin Mother with son". It is said, though not for sure, that is was painted by a monk from Moldavia.
Reforms began in Romania after who was removed from power?
I probably will misspell his name but Nicolai Ceachescu and his wife were executed for crimes against their people in 1990 or so. They were brutal tyrants that had built immense palaces and at the same time, severely restricted heat and food staples during the winter, causing misery for millions of the people. They were arrested after the revolution and given a brief trial and then quickly executed by firing squad. The reforms have dramatically transformed Rumania and Bucharest the capital. Rumania has experienced strong economic growth and has joined the European Union and NATO. Bucharest today looks much like the rest of Europe-shopping malls and a growing middle class. The city is vibrant and lost its drabness suffered under Ceuasescu.
1) The Ceausescu's family has been very fast executed, right on the Christmas day, after a brief judgment, in a secluded location. They had no defense and they didn't even understand what was happening to them. It was just a justificative act, in a big put-in-scene show. Actually, nobody cared about what they did, but there were a lot of people interested in their fortune. This explains the rush. They were simple, uneducated people who have been so brainwashed by cohorts of people who praised them for their beauty and genius, till they got completely lost from reality. They were so used to be admired, approved and praised till they started to believe that indeed, everybody loves them and they were Gods.
2) Bucharest became indeed a huge shopping mall. New casinos have been made, while heritage buildings are falling to pieces. The new "reforms", replaced a culture based on the theater, film, library, concert experience with a TV in Berlusconi's style, they pushed thousands of highly educated people to exude and a lot of desperate people between 30's and 50's to leave abroad looking for work. This generated a high rate of suicides among the children left at home, with their grandparents. Romania had/has no economic growth; coz the industry and agriculture have been systematically destroyed. Like the schools and the hospitals. The government borrows money to pay salaries and rents (Romania's debts are sky rocketing) or gets money from incredible taxes. Oh, yeah, and sells the resources. Lately, a famous mayor declared that actually "Romania should make money from the beauty of their women", while important guys from the Govern have a flourish business with organ donors. Interesting, no?

What are relationships like with Romanians?
Dangerous. Stay away in my opinion.
You will get hurt sooner or later, somehow, someway. Get involved with a Romanian man is a looking for trouble situation. They are manipulative, witty, flirty, extra romantic, they hide their feelings, take advantage easily of family, friends, girlfriends, big cheater no matter what, they stay cool-calm and collected at all times, because they always want to win, stingy at times. Very attractive with good physique, they feel that you own them, they make people do staff for them constantly.
Unfortunately I learned the bad way.
Romanian women are different: faithful, clean, organized, well educated, very modern, fashionable, beautiful bodies and faces. Very charming.
Think twice before you get close to a Romanian man, make small steps, walk away if you get cheated, no second chances for them. They will come back to hurt and humiliate you more. Sorry.
