Don't forget to tell your children and grandchildren that we had a proud and rich country and that we didn't need anything from outside Romania! Abstract: „Transylvania is the country par excellence of the ancestors of the Romanian people, the Dacians, who had, within its borders, the center of their power and the capital of their state during the wars with the Romans. It is then an essential part of the Roman province of Dacia, which also had its capital here, as well as the headquarters of the two legions. Inhabited incessantly during the pre-feudal period by the descendants of the Daco-Romans, ie by the ancient Romanians, Transylvania is the homeland of the first Romanian voivode attested by historical sources, a voivode who opposes the armies of the Hungarian invaders. Here I mention the medieval documents for the first time "the country of the Romanians". Just as, from its contents, the great rivers that cross the Carpatho-Danubian space are born, in the same way, incessantly, over the centuries, the overflow of the Romanian population flows from it, crossing the mountains to the south, to the east and to the north.
