Part One
The Birth and Growth of Romania
(Very) Short Synopsis:
On 9 August 1601, Michael the Brave (Mihai Viteazul) had a dream that changed the World (and the fate of the Romanians) for ever.
He unleashed one of the greatest top-to-bottom revolutions the World had ever seen.
Notes:
1. The short (and translated) Romanian pieces of text will be written in TTL Romanian language using TTL Romanian Alphabet / Diacritics. (mostly old Romanian Letters). Thus, Io Mihailŭ, Împĕratul Românilor, is in OTL Romanian ortography Io Mihai, Împăratul Românilor. As you can see, the differences are actually small enough that any Romanian speaker will easily understand TTL written Romanian.
2. I decided to write TTL, because of the numerous negative comments received in RomaniaWank (Original Version). Most negative comments had to do with some unaccounted for lepidoptera issues.
3. This will be still a Wank, with definitely low plausibility, but not (almost) impossible like the original RomaniaWank.
