Buna bitches. I wish you all a very happy Romania day! Today Romanians celebrate Romania's 90th birthday, the young tykes that they are, as on 1st December 1918, the Romanian lands of Translyvania, Banat, Basarabia and Northern Bucovina were united with the existing Romanian kingdom to form the Romania we know and love today.
It is one of only two (two?!) national holidays so I have enjoyed a day off, though it was marred when I found out that I missed a military parade in the morning. Heres a clip from last years uk.youtube.com/watch?v=mJYVB1a4cm8&feature=related you don't know the meaning of fear until you see the Romanian military. From there you should see a link to a women "booty shaking" in honour of Romania's involvement in World War 2, the wonders of the internet, indeed.
The rest of the day seems to be just putting Romanian flags everywhere, theres hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of the things and I'm wondering where they are stored all year. Romania actually shares its flag with the fine people of Chad, they are the only two countries to have the same flag, that could come in useful in a pub quiz at some point. Though it was Romania's flag first so have that Chad.
