ENJOYABLE FLAVOURS Adventurous Quests for Kadarka, Brandy and Beer DKMT Euroregion Introduction ENJOYABLE FLAVOURS Adventurous quests for kadarka, brandy and beer DKMT Euroregion Introduction The tourism of the 21st century is characterised by the quest for adventures, the desire for cognition and the active participation in programmes. While ”discovering” a country, a region or a smaller geographical area – be it a city visit, active relaxation, recreation, participating in cultural, sports or other attractions – getting acquainted with local specialities is indispensable. And it is nothing else but the gastronomy of the given area. Our publication strives at collecting the local specialities of the DKMT Euroregion and hand it over to our dear guest as a euroregional guide. We have gathered a bunch of the local traditional types of drinks born during centuries on the territory of the DKMT Euroregion and we offer them to our guests. Kadarka, brandy (pálinka, rakija, cujka), beer: these are the beverages, made of different raw materials through different procedures, which have fulfilled an important role in the life of people living here. The history of alcoholic drinks prepared by fermentation, distillation, cooking and their combination is really equal in age with the history of mankind, because they were considered healthy compared to stale and infected waters. Those who consumed them did not catch the disease. This is why the wine has become a national beverage in the Mediterranean countries through thousands of years. But in places where the grapes could not properly ripen because of climatic factors, the art of beer brewing was raised to a masterful level, although the beer itself also started out from the eastern cultures to conquer the world. The preparation of different distillates is also long-standing. For example the further utilisation of the mate- rial remaining after squeezing the grapes resulted in creating the grape skin brandy, while crushing the law quality fallen fruits led the medieval man to the production of the ”water of life”, the predecessor of present day brandies. Now we know that the really good beverages can be produced of high quality raw materials, be it grapes, fruits, barley or hop. So, we offer local wine, pálinka, rakija, cujka and beer specialities in our publication, so that you could familiarize with and try the characteristic beverages of the area when you visit the DKMT Euroregion. 3 KADARKA ROUTE 4 KADARKA 1.

  • Return of the Kings. Institutionalization of the Royal Families in the Republics of Romania and Montenegro in the 21St Century
    Marcin M. Wiszowaty* Uniwersytet Gdański RETURN OF THE KINGS. INSTITUTIONALIZATION OF THE ROYAL FAMILIES IN THE REPUBLICS OF ROMANIA AND MONTENEGRO IN THE 21ST CENTURY 1. In my latest book I took note of the phenomenon which I defined as a “re- publican paradigm in the research on the political systems of modern states”. This trend is very often encountered in the process of analyzing political systems. On one hand, it consist in omitting or marginalizing all characteristic elements of the monarchy, which do not have their republican equivalent, and on the other hand it focuses on democratic aspects of political system, ignoring its monarchic or republican character. This trend mainly results from a commonly-accepted as- sumption, that the so-called constitutional monarchy is only a stage on its way to the inevitable transformation of a political system from the absolute monarchy into the pure republic, which makes it only a transitional form. It brings about the fact that in case of monarchic states, the only subject of political system analysis is usually the monarch himself, as the last remnant of the past monarchy, whereas the other institutions of the monarchic system are ignored in the belief that they constitute insignificant relics, or even that they have already turned fully into the “republican” character.1 One of the consequences of the above-mentioned inter- pretation is a gradual replacement of a traditional categorization into “republics” or “monarchies” by classifying the states as “democratic” or “undemocratic”. As a result, the two categories will encompass both monarchies and republics, ulti- mately reducing the fundamental differences between political systems.

  • The Phylogenealogy of R-L21: Four and a Half Millennia of Expansion and Redistribution
    The phylogenealogy of R-L21: four and a half millennia of expansion and redistribution Joe Flood* * Dr Flood is a mathematician, economist and data analyst. He was a Principal Research Scientist at CSIRO and has been a Fellow at a number of universities including Macquarie University, University of Canberra, Flinders University, University of Glasgow, University of Uppsala and the Royal Melbourne Institute of Technology. He was a foundation Associate Director of the Australian Housing and Urban Research Institute. He has been administrator of the Cornwall Y-DNA Geographic Project and several surname projects at FTDNA since 2007. He would like to give credit to the many ‘citizen scientists’ who made this paper possible by constructing the detailed R1b haplotree over the past few years, especially Alex Williamson. 1 ABSTRACT: Phylogenealogy is the study of lines of descent of groups of men using the procedures of genetic genealogy, which include genetics, surname studies, history and social analysis. This paper uses spatial and temporal variation in the subclade distribution of the dominant Irish/British haplogroup R1b-L21 to describe population changes in Britain and Ireland over a period of 4500 years from the early Bronze Age until the present. The main focus is on the initial spread of L21-bearing populations from south-west Britain as part of the Beaker Atlantic culture, and on a major redistribution of the haplogroup that took place in Ireland and Scotland from about 100 BC. The distributional evidence for a British origin for L21 around 2500 BC is compelling. Most likely the mutation originated in the large Beaker colony in south-west Britain, where many old lineages still survive.

  • All Unfortunate Young Women Are Lyrical Poets
    DOI: 10.2478/v10027-007-0009-0 Tatiana Iatcu Petru Maior University of Targu Mures, Romania ”ALL UNFORTUNATE89 YOUNG WOMEN ARE LYRICAL POETS...” (ROMANIAN WOMEN VOICES FROM ABROAD) During the 19th century, especially in the fi rst half, society in Romania did not give women the same chances to develop, subordinating them to men and restricting their activities to the domestic sphere. Th e quintessence of the model of femininity is found in Jules Michelet’s book La femme, which is represented by a humble wife, submissive and utterly obedient, as opposed to that of manliness, whose main characteristics are strength and courage (Vasilescu 2004: 1). Th e same frank dichotomy is seen by Garabet Ibraileanu1 who says that ”Th ere is nothing more diff erent than a man from a woman” (1972: 110). But things were going to change. Th e beginning of the modern epoch in the history of the Romanian people was represented by the 1921 Revolution, which was followed by many programs for reform. One of these included the constitutional project, initiated by Ionita Sandu Sturdza. Th e capitalist development of economy and the formation of the bourgeoisie imprinted an acute character to social and political confl icts, which culminated in the 1848-1849 Revolution, an integral part of the European democratic revolution. Th e birth of the modern Romanian state in the second half of the 19th century (1859) brought with it a new image of the woman, as mother of the family and of the nation. With roots in Romanticism, this image of the woman has lasted up to the modern times and is well refl ected in paintings – my country is represented by Maria Rosetti in a painting called ”Revolutionary Romania”, by Constantin Daniel Rosenthal.

  • Emergence of Monarchies? a Comparative Study of Three East European Countries
    Emergence of monarchies? A Comparative study of three East European countries Peter Sundström 2014-04-19 Supervisor: Sten Berglund Date of examination: 2014-06-04 Abstract This study aims to find out why there is a growing demand for monarchic forms of governments in some East European transition countries such as Serbia and Romania but not to the same extent in other comparable transition countries like Bulgaria? This study uses two contemporary theories, beginning here with a historical-institutional approach which emphasizes path dependency and critical junctures as explanations for support of a monarchy- institutional tradition. The other approach used in this study is not actually a theory in a strict sense but rather an index of explanation values, derived from Inglehart & Welzel’s World Value Survey. It has the ability to show how post-communist countries were facing a revitalization of traditional values such as nationalism, which created a window of opportunity and created a more fruitful environment for monarchy-associated ideals. The study conducts a comparative analysis of a type called most similar systems design (mssd), which is a method used to highlight differences between the objects of a case study, in this case Serbia, Romania and Bulgaria and their domestic monarchy aspirations. As a result of the method described above, the study uses a set of independent variables upon the dependent one in each case, which is support for monarchy. This allows the study identify the key variables that can explain the outcome; differences in monarchy support. Keywords: monarchy, support, critical junctures, traditional values. 1 Contents 1 Primary focus .................................................................................................................................

  • Question: Who Are the "Elite"? Answer: the Black Nobility
    Question: Who are the "elite"? Answer: The Black Nobility. Date 11-02-2021 Time 16:32:52 The black nobility is the base of the global crime syndicate that controls this planet. The black nobility or black aristocracy are the aristocratic families that sided with the papacy under Pope Pius IX after the army of the Kingdom of Italy led by the Savoy family entered Rome on September 20, 1870, overthrew the pope . and the Papal States, and took over the Quirinal Palace, and the nobles later ennobled by the Pope prior to the Lateran Treaty of 1929. Any family that produced popes for the Vatican is royalty. Most of the black nobility are Vatican royalty. The black nobility consider themselves sovereign princes. These families earned the title of "black" nobility for their relentless unscrupulousness. They used murder, rape, kidnapping, robbery and all kinds of deception on a large scale, without resisting the achievement of their objectives. The black nobility were the families that financed and created the holy corporation of the Vatican with the aim of imposing world slavery as a necessary institution, with the sole belief that some are born to rule and others to be ruled. The idea that certain families were born to rule as an arbitrary elite, while the vast majority of a given population is condemned to oppression, servitude, or slavery became the theological position of this elite. The "New World Order" is an attempt to take control of society by these fascist families with the purpose of the total slavery of humanity. The Vatican is an imperial nation and is the largest empire in this world.
