Dimãndarea Pãrinteascã
"Dimãndarea pãrinteascã" (), also known as "Pãrinteasca dimãndari" (), is an Aromanian poem written in 1888 exhorting parents to teach their children the language, instead of assimilating into other Balkan ethnicities. As a result it is often used as a national anthem by some Aromanians. History The anthem was written in 1888 in Bucharest Bucharest ( , ; ro, București ) is the capital and largest city of Romania, as well as its cultural, industrial, and financial centre.

Flag Of The Aromanians
The flag of the Aromanians ( rup, Flãmbura-a armãnjilor) is an unofficial ethnic flag used by some of the Aromanians, an ethnic group from the Balkans. They are scattered in Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, North Macedonia, Romania and Serbia and their estimates range from 350,000 to 3 million people. There is no official Aromanian entity in any of these countries. Description The flag is a white field with a blue outline near the edges. In the center, there is a white circle outlined in blue and crossed by horizontal and diagonal blue bands. Aromanians from other countries also have their own versions of this flag. Furthermore, during the Paris Peace Conference of 1919 and 1920, the Aromanians used a horizontal flag composed of five stripes: red, yellow, pale blue, yellow and black. In some cases and among some groups, the flag is considered "holy" and there are strict rules about its use in weddings. The flag is esteemed and rules are expected to be followed. Variations The ...

Aromanians
The Aromanians ( rup, Armãnji, Rrãmãnji) are an ethnic group native to the southern Balkans who speak Aromanian, an Eastern Romance language. They traditionally live in central and southern Albania, south-western Bulgaria, northern and central Greece and North Macedonia, and can currently be found in central and southern Albania, south-western Bulgaria, south-western North Macedonia, northern and central Greece, southern Serbia and south-eastern Romania ( Northern Dobruja). An Aromanian diaspora living outside these places also exists. The Aromanians are known by several other names, such as "Vlachs" or "Macedo-Romanians" (sometimes used to also refer to the Megleno-Romanians). The term "Vlachs" is used in Greece and in other countries to refer to the Aromanians, with this term having been more widespread in the past to refer to all Romance-speaking peoples of the Balkan Peninsula and Carpathian Mountains region (Southeast Europe). Their vernacular, Aromanian, is an ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Constantin Belimace
Constantin Belimace (July 1848 – 1932) was an Aromanian poet. He was born into an Aromanian family in Malovišta (), a village that formed part of the Ottoman Empire's Rumelia Eyalet and is now in North Macedonia. His father was Tașcu Belimace. He attended school in his native village and at a Serbian school in Belgrade. In 1873, he moved to Bucharest, capital of the Romanian Old Kingdom. There, he opened a restaurant favored by students, particularly from south of the Danube, and by writers. In the enthusiastically patriotic atmosphere that followed the Romanian War of Independence, Belimace began composing poems, thus becoming among the first writers in the Aromanian language: "Cucotul" (Romanian: "Cocoșul"; "The Rooster") and "Dimãndarea pãrinteascã" ("Porunca părintească"; "The Parents' Command"). These appeared, respectively, in ''România'' and ''Voința națională''. Later, together with others, they were published in Andrei Bagav's 1887 ''Cartea de alegere'' (''Ca ...

Aromanian Language
The Aromanian language (, , , or ), also known as Macedo-Romanian or Vlach, is an Eastern Romance language, similar to Megleno-Romanian, Istro-Romanian and Romanian, spoken in Southeastern Europe. Its speakers are called Aromanians or Vlachs (a broader term and an exonym in widespread use to define Romance communities in the Balkans). Some scholars, mostly Romanian ones, consider Aromanian a dialect of Romanian. Aromanian shares many features with modern Romanian, including similar morphology and syntax, as well as a large common vocabulary inherited from Latin. An important source of dissimilarity between Romanian and Aromanian is the adstratum languages (external influences); whereas Romanian has been influenced to a greater extent by the Slavic languages, Aromanian has been more influenced by Greek, with which it has been in close contact throughout its history. Geographic distribution Aromanian is native to Albania, Bulgaria, Greece, North Macedonia, Romania and ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
National Anthem
A national anthem is a patriotic musical composition symbolizing and evoking eulogies of the history and traditions of a country or nation. The majority of national anthems are marches or hymns in style. American, Central Asian, and European nations tend towards more ornate and operatic pieces, while those in the Middle East, Oceania, Africa, and the Caribbean use a more simplistic fanfare. Some countries that are devolved into multiple constituent states have their own official musical compositions for them (such as with the United Kingdom, Russia, and the former Soviet Union); their constituencies' songs are sometimes referred to as national anthems even though they are not sovereign states. History In the early modern period, some European monarchies adopted royal anthems. Some of these anthems have survived into current use. "God Save the King/Queen", first performed in 1619, remains the royal anthem of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth realms. , adopted as ...

Bucharest
Bucharest ( , ; ro, București ) is the capital and largest city of Romania, as well as its cultural, industrial, and financial centre. It is located in the southeast of the country, on the banks of the Dâmbovița River, less than north of the Danube River and the Bulgarian border. Bucharest was first mentioned in documents in 1459. The city became the capital of Romania in 1862 and is the centre of Romanian media, culture, and art. Its architecture is a mix of historical (mostly Eclectic, but also Neoclassical and Art Nouveau), interbellum ( Bauhaus, Art Deco and Romanian Revival architecture), socialist era, and modern. In the period between the two World Wars, the city's elegant architecture and the sophistication of its elite earned Bucharest the nickname of 'Paris of the East' ( ro, Parisul Estului) or 'Little Paris' ( ro, Micul Paris). Although buildings and districts in the historic city centre were heavily damaged or destroyed by war, earthquakes, and even Nic ...

Adevărul
''Adevărul'' (; meaning "The Truth", formerly spelled ''Adevĕrul'') is a Romanian daily newspaper, based in Bucharest. Founded in Iași, in 1871, and reestablished in 1888, in Bucharest, it was the main left-wing press venue to be published during the Romanian Kingdom's existence, adopting an independent pro- democratic position, advocating land reform, and demanding universal suffrage. Under its successive editors Alexandru Beldiman and Constantin Mille, it became noted for its virulent criticism of King Carol I. This stance developed into a republican and socialist agenda, which made ''Adevărul'' clash with the Kingdom's authorities on several occasions. As innovative publications which set up several local and international records during the early 20th century, ''Adevărul'' and its sister daily ''Dimineața'' competed for the top position with the right-wing '' Universul'' before and throughout the interwar period. In 1920, ''Adevărul'' also began publishing its presti ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
