A LITTLE HISTORY LESSON

     I am sure all of you studied history in school. But, have you ever wondered or had your teachers ever told you why Europe wasn't invaded by the Ottoman Empire? While the Brits were writing their fancy ENCICLOPEDIA and the French were inventing the perfume as solution to their "stinkyness" we were fighting the Ottomans. The land where Romania lays was always a point of interest for economic and political reasons. It is a "gateway" to Europe. And yes, while you were fighting for more power and more land, we were fighting to keep what was rightfully ours. Romania was the wall that kept the entire Europe from falling under the Turks. We were the little brother that everybody kept pushing around and making fun of. And now that it grew nobody likes it because it's dirty and uneducated. Is also has diseases such as corruption ans misconceptions.
   Giving him new clothes doesn't make him a better person. The changes must begin from inside out.
