Dear visitors,
I would like to share with you the beauty of our earth! Today I start the series “Where is…”
I will post important and interesting facts about one nation + music or video. I choose for my first “Where is…” Romania. You’d like this sound! Just listen and watch this video and you will fall in love with this beautiful country Romania. This music sounds actually very typical “Balkan”. If you ever have explored East Europe, so you know how different and interesting cultures are there.
Few facts:
With a surface area of 238,391 square kilometres (92,043 sq mi), Romania is the largest country in southeastern Europe and the twelfth-largest in Europe. A large part of Romania's border with Serbia and Bulgaria is formed by the Danube.
According to the 2002 census, Romania has a population of 21.698,181 and, similarly to other countries in the region, is expected to gently decline in the coming years as a result of sub-replacement fertility rates. Romanians make up 89.5% of the population. The largest ethnic minorities are Hungarians, who make up 6.6% of the population and Roma, or Gypsies, who make up 2.46% of the population.
Bucharest is the capital and the largest city in Romania.
Bran Castle was built in 1212, and became commonly known as Dracula's Castle after the myths that it was the home of Vlad III Dracula.
