Romania
How times
change!!!!!! Since Ceausescu's reign and
the subsequent sweep of power of the communists that
followed in 1996, Romania, the largest of the Balkan countries is
now, believe it or not, a member of NATO and theEuropean Union.And
while it still has the majestic castles and a real medieval feel
about it, it is making grand strides in catching up with it's new
partners.
