I have to say this: the Dacians were not barbarians by any measure of the word. The Dacians were the people that lived here 2000 years ago and they were protecting their country from the invaders, the Romans, who wanted to get the gold, silver and other important resources that existed plentiful in the area. Sarmisegetusa Regia (the real capital of the Dacians) only fell because of a betrayal and Decebal took his own life because he knew if he were captured, he's be humiliated by the Romans. The Romans almost completely erased it (as it was built in the mountains) and created Sarmisegetusa Ulpia Traiana in the lower lands, so it wouldn't be as easily defendable. Also, before Decebal, another big leader of the Geto-Daco-Thracians was Burebista, who was another badass leader of Dacia before the time of Christ. He was able to unite all the scattered tribes of the area in one big powerful country. Great Dacia contained areas of (aside from current Romania): current Bulgaria, Ukraine, Republic of Moldova, Hungary. He was one of the first Dacian leaders to fight against the invasion of the Roman army. The Dacians had an impressive culture, built cities especially in the mountains, knew how to properly work with gold, silver and other precious metals, were great merchants, were quite religious (Zamolxis was the main deity) and were very welcoming with anyone visiting them.
The romans called everyone barbarians, that's the missleading. And maybe they were comparable to them, but also there were different levels of "barbarians"
OK, Steve, you should know by now that going faster than a Romanian train is not such a big deal. When it comes to trains, Romanian Railways tend to take things reeeaaaally slow 😀. Great video, once again (actually the videos are better and better every time) !!! Fan-facts about Decebal's statue : It' s not finished , this is not the final look, it's about 60% done (actually I kind of like it like this, rough, blended with the nature). The nose is the second draft - first version became dangerously unstable so they had to dynamite it. It took more than 10 years, a team of 12 sculptors - alpinists, more than 1 million dollars, paid by an amateur historian, (not Romanian authorities) - Iosif Constantin Drăgan ; the inscription at the base says in Latin: DECEBALUS REX - DRAGAN FECIT (King Decebal - made by Dragan). Right on the opposite side of Danube, on the Serbian part, there is a 2000 yo antique memorial plaque: "Tabula Traiana"(4 by 1,75 meters), risen by Emperor Traian to celebrate Romans' victory against Dacians - and the story is told on the Traian's column in Rome.
From what I found out he was a far-right nationalist also having conflicts with the Romanian Legion. He managed to escape with the party 's treasury he was in charge of when the Soviet invasion started. He became a millionaire in Italy. His legacy is a cultural one as of the most far-right members.
Thank you very much for the beautiful videos of Romania. I was born there and love to see all those wonderful sites once again !! You are really wonderful and all your vlogs are amazing !
Hello beautiful people, as so many wrote more complete information about the Dacian culture, I am not going to add anything except this: "The word "barbarian" came from the word "Barbar" which means people who have a big beard, or better said, the beard people. Since the Roman empire was, a very interesting culture, most of the depictions of their culture show faces and statues of men without any beards, For them, Dacians were barbarians because all most all had beards. Different culture for Romans as they used nearly everything that today you can find in Walmart, perfumes, powders, and sophisticated types of oil, from all over the conquered world. Fashion is also another cultural difference since Dacians were traditionalists. There are many to say about this but, one more thing, the Roman empire didn't conquer all of Dacia, only 12% of it. Emperor Traian knew Latin and also knew the language spoken by Dacians which was slightly different. He didn't need a translator when he had to talk with Dacian people. That says a lot about those times, and Traian really appreciated Dacians and Decebal as their king. Last thing to add, aside from that there are many people with the first name Decebal. The name Decebal in the old Dacian language means this, BAL, is the name of a bear. This is what they called bears and DECE, is number ten. Now, if you put them together, DECE+ BAL you got DECEBAL, which means a man with the power of ten bears. I apologize for my long dissertation, but I thought it is nice to share this with you. Have fun and enjoy your life guys.
Did you just compare a state from USA of 4,5 million people with one country from Europe with 20 million people inside and 15 million outside the country and bonus thousands of years of history???? Do better American do better
It was not a barbaric king, even in the ancient Roman manuscripts the country was refers as “The Kingdom of Dacia”. The country had a capital city, hundreds of tons of gold, etc, they even had water pipes bringing water from far distances, the Romans didn’t conquer the capital city just by battle, they cut the water supplies going into the city. King’s Decebalus treasury was estimated at 165 tons of gold and about 330 tons of silver, the Romans found the treasury in the river Sargesia (modern river Strei). The gold and silver combined in that treasury was worth about 3.9 billion sesterces or roughly 6 years worth of the entire military budget of the Roman empire.
The second longest river on the continent after the Volga, the Danube crosses no less than 10 countries from its source to its discharge into the Black Sea, through the well-known Danube Delta on the territory of our country. The Danube originates in the Black Forest Mountains in Germany, and its route continues in Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine. Moreover, the Danube passes through four capitals - Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest and Belgrade. Love you ❤️❤️❤️
Ia uita-te pe o harta si explica-mi unde trece Dunarea prin Republica Moldova,ca sunt curios sa vad minunea asta.Poate s-a schimbat cursul Dunarii saptamana trecuta si eu nu am aflat,hahahahha Moldova are frontiera pina la varsarea Prutului in Dunare,din acel punct incepe teritoriul Ucrainei.
The good part of Romanian tourism is that there are many foreign vloggers who value our country much better than the Ministry of Tourism. Love yor work guys.
I love your video's. I have visited lots of times Moldova. But i never been to Roemenia. I love like Steve mici with mustard. I love the quietness of the countryside. 1 day i wanna move overthere. Thanks for the good and beautifull video's you make.
The state of many of the buildings at Băile Herculane is honestly a crime. It could probably be the nicest bath resort in Romania, perhaps in the region, but the whole potential is currently wasted.
That's because those are private properties and the owners are basically waiting for the old building to collapse in order to replace them with some kitsch hotels "Mamaia style". We can only blame the government for not coming up with laws that would confiscate historical buildings from owners who don't want or can't afford to renovate.
Hiii....Steve lvana, this is a nice relaxing vlog. Enjoy the nature, like Steve said , "God's grace all around you." The drone gives a fantastic, beautiful colourful view. Nothing beats to that. Thanks for showing us/me around in your travels. I stay home and enjoy watching those travelling. I don't know much of Romania but it's just a click on internet to find out/read on it. All l can remember is the gymnast Nadia, and the Romanian priest named Richard Wurmbrand, which l read decades ago . Very touching story of his persecution for his great faith and love for God, and for his fellow country men.
1. The only alive person I know who's name is Decebal is this famous Romanian journalist, also a Rapid fan, Decebal Radulescu. 2. Yes, Dacians were using coins and bread and other recipes. Actually, legend has it that the main attraction for the Romans to invade Dacia was fabulous gold reserve the Dacians owned. As a bonus, the Romans also discovered the Dacian beautiful women and delicious food. Next time, you have to make sure you visit Sarmizegetusa Regia, the capital of Dacia. 3. As side note for every good person who's about to visit that area, especially the wilderness there, be aware of the vipers! If you're a bad person, don't worry, there are no dangers and you may roam bearfooted. :)
@@JetLagWarriors Yes... you right but DECE it's the old latin language... If you listen very carefully how the Italians pronounces 10 =Dieci 🙂 Dacian language it is the mother of the all latin languages... 7 left in the world... Romanian, French, Italian, Portuguese,Spanish... etc Bal or balus ... pluralism They use to call bal a bear... language changed because we have some slavic influence as well... 🙂 When Traian came to fight Decebalul... hi said... " I came on my ancestors land" So... there we are... The beautiful thing is ... whit the Romanian language... you can "bend or melt" the words and people from that region will understand you... That means... thousands of years... Good luck 🙂
@@DukeOfTheYard he belives in that theory promoted by a guy, forgot his name... that dacians are the ancestors of the romans and that there are underground tunnels in the Carpathians with alien technology. 😂
There was no bread back then, but was mamaliga but not made from corn. And Dacians werent quite barbarians. They had religion and some sort of monetary system.
we dont need to create imaginary heroes like Superman,Iron-man,etc. we have Decebal,Burebista,Constantin Brancoveanu,Mihai viteazu,Stefan cel mare,etc.
Romans used the therm barbarian to describe any other people than romans. Barbarians were considered uncivilised, but actually it wasn't the case for all of them. When we speak about dacians, they were organised, they had cities, a king and a lot of evidence shows that they were pretty advanced. This is why romans conquered Dacia in such a long time. Besides that, romans were proud with this victory wich is considered the most important one (trajan column, arc of triumph with dacian soldiers, dacian sculptures in Vatican). So, they were so proud about conquering a tribal country!? I think not.
I saw a documentary that was saying that the dacian society was the second most technologically developed after romans in that ancient time, so dacians were not barbarians. Apart from this, awesome documentary, thank you for it. 🤗
The Dacian wall was famous, you can see it at Sarmisegetusa. Also the Dacian sword called a falx. The Romans designed a special kind of armour just to protect against this weapon. And their war flag in the shape of a wolf's head with a dragon tail.

Zarmizegethoúsa) or Ζερμιζεγεθούση (Zermizegethoúsē), was the capital and the most important military, religious and political centre of the Dacians before the wars with the Roman Empire. Erected on top of a 1200 m high mountain, the fortress, comprising six citadels, was the core of a strategic defensive system in the Orăștie Mountains Yes, they had towns... Cheers!
Oh my, how much I love you guys! I watched almost every video you have made in Romania. It's not just this country, but the way you see it it's so emotional for me as a romanian guy. Greetings from „The other Capital”, Alba Iulia.🤗
Hello explorers! If you want to know more about Dacians lifestyle and technolgy, I recommand to search "Dacians gold bracelet and coins". They also have an interesting story, you may find on Wikipedia. Thanks for this wonderful review, we appreciate :)
Thank you for the nice words. Often, we forget how beautiful this country is and we only focus on the negative things. Fortunately, there are still many foreign tourists who appreciate it. Respect!
One of you best videos i ever saw on your channel about Romania ...incredible drone scene....plus, all the history details you said , ..wow..impressive...you are 2 incredible awesome people.
I really appreciate your travel around Romania, but one thing that you should know is that the Dacians were not at all barbarian, there is a lot of information misunderstood by people in general about the Dacians, they had a very interesting culture.
LOVE you guys! Steve you appeared on television called Digi24. It was a video about how visitors enjoy Roumanian traditional food. You were presented enjoying “varza a la Cluj” and savarina!😊
OMG....Drobeta Tr Severin, Orsova, Cazanele Dunarii, Baile Herculane, Decebal Sculpture and all of this under an amassing beautiful blue sky , fall colors...are you guy in Heaven? NO.... NO ....is just the area where I spend quite of time years ago, Oltenia/Romania. Enjoy and a big THANK YOU for you videos and SIX STARS !!!
The barbarian stereotype that was encouraged by the Romans still lives on to this day. However the Dacians were a settled people, they had towns and fortresses (a few ruins remain to this day), they had a capital at Sarmizegetusa (the ruins can be visited), they built roads, they mined gold (a prime reason why the Romans invaded), practiced agriculture and wine making. The Dacian Kingdom was a powerful entity at the time of Cesar and its king, Burebista, threw his support behind behind Pompey in the Roman civil war. At this time Dacia had conquered the Greek city states on the shores of the Black Sea (Tomis, Histria, Callatis) and it is said that Burebista could muster an army as large as 200,000. This figure is high for this era of antiquity and is disputed, though what isn't disputed is that the kingdom was a rich and influencial entity at the turn of the first millennium.
Bro the dacians were not barbarians they had quite advanced Technology for the time the romans used the term "barbarian" for every nation of people that lived outside of the roman empire.
Just look up dacian gold and see for yourself what barbarians ( men with beards) did. Also, dacians were thracians, just not in the Roman Empire , a lot of roman eperors were thracians, really not barbarians in the sense you are insinuating, they were the same people separated by the Danube. Northern thracians (dacians) were not in the Roman Empire, thus barbarians. To be exact, the closest living language related to what ancient thracian people spoke is albanian because they resisted romanization up in the mountains, we have a lot of cognate words with them. Are they barbarians to you? Because they clearly weren't then, they were in the Roman Empire.
Madalina, vezi seria Noi Arianii Daci. Vei stii mai multe. "Barbarians" erau toti ne-grecii, denumire nascuta din cum ne auzeau ei limba, cu mult "bar" in ea. Iar cea mai apropiata limba de dialectul dacic e limba romana de azi, limba noastra.
@@sstoi Nu mai fuma ce nu trebuie. "Tracii" nu au existat niciodata ca etnie. Era o porecla (Traxus, Traxi, singural, plural) data noua/dacilor de catre greci (noi fiind zeii razboiului, aka Arieni, neamul lui Arie), de la zeul grecesc al razboiului, Trax. Arie e numele original, grecizat in Aries (cum il gasesti si in zodiac), apoi prescurtat in Ares.
@@sstoi Mersi ca mi-ai dovedit spusele. Daca nu intareai ce am spus, ramaneai doar drogat. Asa..., esti si prost butuc. Foarte probabil nici nu stii sa citesti (doar cateva cuvinte pe ici pe colo), ca daca stiai, stiai deja de am spus msi sus.
Romans are mixed descendants of Trojans and native Italians (Etruscan and many more). Trojans are from Thracian family, like the Dacians/Getae. So they are all related in one way or another.
We had family members travel the Danube by Riverboat through this area and they came enthralled by Romania. We planned another trip there but it was interrupted. We still hope to get back there soon. I was on a Danube cruise in Germany and Austria but it looks like Romania is more beautiful.
I hope Herculane Baths will rise again at it's first beauty because it is an unique place in Europe. Oltenia region is beautiful but is very underrated , everybody promoting only Transylvania.
Banatul e până la Severin inclusiv. Înainte de Ceaușescu, Banatul avea trei județe: Timiș reședință Timișoara, Caraș reședință Caransebeș, si Severin reședință Drobeta. Iar Herculane, în ziua de azi e în Caraș-Severin, prietene. Asa că stai liniștit, dar la câți olteni sunt în Timișoara, în curând o să pretindeti ca e Oltenia😂😂😂
Hi there, I am happy that you feel good in our Country , we wish you a nice stay. If you are amaze about our history of Dacians. Dacii were among the first nations in Europe just come to the capital of Dacia Ulpia Traiana Sarmizegetusa there as some amazing places here aka Hunedoara/Orăștie.
the Dacians were not barbarians . they had stronholds an citadels all over the country . you were in piatra neamt , over there is an stronghold Petrodava . in the N-NE part of the country lived the free dacians (no gold and very difficult terrain :D )
Excellent vlog Steve&Ivana 😍 Iron Gate Gorge is very special and great... I did the same route at the beginning of September, the barbarians were all the kingdoms that were not part of the Roman Empire, Dacia was a big powerful kingdom with strong cities and fortresses in the Orastie mountains in Hunedoara county you can visit the ruins of Daco-Roman cities.
i might be wrong but as far as i know romans used "barbarian" as a term for anyone who didnt speak latin, it had nothing to do with the level o civilization.
This is very interesting! I wish I knew this beforehand. The word ‘barbarian’ threw me off a bit. I had to slowly realize how sophisticated they were 👍
@@JetLagWarriors if you are looking for more interesting stuff about the romans vs dacians look up the "falx", is was the sword the dacians used that made the romans change the type of helmet they used and probably the reason is took them so long to conquire dacia :)
@@jhf893 they never conquered it entirely. There are Dacian descendants called "momârlani" in Apuseni(?) They mainly conquered the South, later Valachia
@@TOughC234 true but seeing how after trajan won the dacian tribes never united again i think its fair to say for the purpose of this discution that Dacia was conquired
Thank you for this nice video, also for not showing that much of Herculane, I know the historical center is in a very unfortunate state right now. Hopefully it will be done something about it in the future.
Danube flows southeast for 2,850 km( 1075km in Romania), passing through or bordering 10 countries: Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova, and Ukraine.
Lots of people all over the world they come to Romania. If im not wrong you both had the most time spend in Romania Beautiful Country ever been im glad you enjoy the here ❤
Please learn about the real history of Romania, and who the ancestors was... The Dacians were cousins with Traian of Rome...and the Latin language comes from the old romanian language . Same Italien, Spanish. .etc
I am not even Romanian myself and I notice the big mistake u guys made it in this video by calling the Dacians and their King Decebal barbarians. That my friend is far from truth because the Dacians that fight against the Roman EMPIRE even wining few times they have been very advanced people expecially for that time. Facts The Dacians knew about writing.Permanent contacts with the Graeco-Roman world had brought the use of the Greek and later the Latin alphabet.It is also certainly not the case that writing with Greek and Latin letters and knowledge of Greek and Latin were known in all the settlements scattered throughout Dacia, but there is no doubt about the existence of such knowledge in some circles of Dacian society.] However, the most revealing discoveries concerning the use of the writing by the Dacians occurred in the citadels on the Sebes mountains. Some groups of letters from stone blocks at Sarmisegetuza might express personal names; these cannot now be read because the wall is ruined, and because it is impossible to restore the original order of the blocks in the wall. 😉👍
The Danube is the biggest river in Europe and starts in like Germany or Netherlands and ends in the Romanian Delta spilling into the Black Sea. Also, that stone sculpture of Decebalus is the largest rock sculpture in Europe, and she is right, it's kind of like Romania's Mount Rushmore. Another great video guys, thanks 👍
Hey Steve and Ivona, since you are in Romania, you could go back to another neighboring country where you were, which is Serbia. Since you love sports events, you simply must not miss the basketball game of K.K. Partizan Belgrade in the Euroleague, where you have 20. 000 people in the sports hall cheering loudly, something unique in Europe and probably in the world. Also last time, you had one important task left to complete, which is to judge which city has a better barbecue, Niš or Leskovac. And to confirm or deny whether Serbian food is still in the top 2 foods in the world along with Malaysian food :D. Also, in addition to that, I would wholeheartedly recommend discovering the natural beauties of Serbia, reka Uvac (river), fortress Golubac, fottress Smederevo, Đavolja Varoš (Devils town), Stara planina, Mokra Gora (mount's), Palić lake. Мedieval monasteries built by our holy kings, with unique frescoes in Europe, Studenica, Mileševa, Žiča, and on Kosovo Dečani, Gračanica ...
We actually have people named after Decebal. And even one guy named Decebal Traian Remes ( check it out), who is now dead but was like a romanian politician. Decebal Traian, how cool is that? :D Thank you for the vlog, I love you both!!
Your videos are extremely lovely! By the way, guys, as far as I know the word barbarian was used by romans to refer to pretty much anyone else. Hope to see more of you two, you're incredible!
We should all donate to archaeologists who want to save relics still being destroyed, erasing a mighty culture and identity. But it is a sign we should be citizens of Heaven, never mind Earth
I don't know if it's already been mentioned and I won't get into details, but the Danube was actually not always that deep/wide there. In fact there's like sunken houses (wouldn't really say villages) in that area, due to the construction of the 2 dams a bit downstream.
Guys you have been almost everywhere in Romania, from north to south from west to east, I think theres only a few more places to see till you complete everything, Romania is not a big country, it is considered a medium country as size. Now that Lula de Silva won the elections in Brasil and the World Cup will start in 3 weeks, I can not wait to see the future brazilian vlogs too...
For vlogging maybe but not for life experince i visited 12 western european country working there but didnt understand almost nothing from their culture drinked with dukes in uk with contes in france and wreally rich people in Spain Germany Italy belgium and netherland and i speak read and write 5languages and i didnt understand shit from their culture they all about making money i dont need that im happy with what i have here and dont need more
After i saw u having the bath, are you ready for something similar in Tuscany ? (just trying to guess where you went this week) 😁, can`t wait to see your upcoming videos. Glad to see again, wherever you go enjoying each moment.
Decebalus` Dacia was full of gold and gold coins. This was the reason the romans wanted to conquer Dacia. Unfortunately, the gold they took from dacians brought luxuury and ruin and corruptions and inflation, because it was too much. You can visit a roman gold mine in Transylvania. It is said Traian's ancestors came from these lands of Dacia. Also, the romans called/named barbarians all the non-roman states from the north of them. Also, "barbar" means "barbat" or "human male".
Actually, barbarian is what the Greeks called the Romans, meaning non-Greek-speaker. Just like neamț=mute/can't speak Latin. The Romans adapted it. There are many statues of Roman Emperors with beards. It was just more practical to cut it as a military leader/soldier and Romans were the definition of practical. They didn't even have time to create their own gods, they just imported Greek gods as they were and then the Hebrew god.
Dacia had a lot of gold and silver and also really rich in salt, also had a developed sociaty. It is interesting history if you need something to read on a long train jurney ;)
The Dacians were not barbarians, if you go and visit Rome Italy there are many Dacian statues, including Constantine Arch opposite the Colosseum and Piaza di Popollo, where they are dressed as aristocracy. Also Trajan Columns shows faces and behaviours of Dacian, the reason of invasion was Gold mines in Carpathian mountains, Romans left with hundreds of tonnes (reported by them), of gold and silver.

Emperor Traian knew Latin and also knew the language spoken by Dacians which was slightly different. He didn't need a translator when he had to talk with Dacian people.

The name Decebal in the old Dacian language means this, BAL, is the name of a bear. This is what they called bears and DECE, is number ten. Now, if you put them together, DECE+ BAL you got DECEBAL, which means a man with the power of ten bears. I apologize for my long dissertation, but I thought it is nice to share this with you. Have fun and enjoy your life guys.
All of the stuff that you say is complete dacopat bullshit.
fascinating
In original "DECEBALUS". Example: "DECEBALUS PER SCORILLO"...
For a country the size of Oregon, Romania has all the beautiful landscapes that you want to visit. Enjoy!
Did you just compare a state from USA of 4,5 million people with one country from Europe with 20 million people inside and 15 million outside the country and bonus thousands of years of history???? Do better American do better
It was not a barbaric king, even in the ancient Roman manuscripts the country was refers as “The Kingdom of Dacia”.
The country had a capital city, hundreds of tons of gold, etc, they even had water pipes bringing water from far distances, the Romans didn’t conquer the capital city just by battle, they cut the water supplies going into the city.
King’s Decebalus treasury was estimated at 165 tons of gold and about 330 tons of silver, the Romans found the treasury in the river Sargesia (modern river Strei).
The gold and silver combined in that treasury was worth about 3.9 billion sesterces or roughly 6 years worth of the entire military budget of the Roman empire.
The second longest river on the continent after the Volga, the Danube crosses no less than 10 countries from its source to its discharge into the Black Sea, through the well-known Danube Delta on the territory of our country. The Danube originates in the Black Forest Mountains in Germany, and its route continues in Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, the Republic of Moldova and Ukraine. Moreover, the Danube passes through four capitals - Vienna, Bratislava, Budapest and Belgrade.
Love you ❤️❤️❤️
I was about to say but you've done a great job explaining. Well done!!
Ia uita-te pe o harta si explica-mi unde trece Dunarea prin Republica Moldova,ca sunt curios sa vad minunea asta.Poate s-a schimbat cursul Dunarii saptamana trecuta si eu nu am aflat,hahahahha Moldova are frontiera pina la varsarea Prutului in Dunare,din acel punct incepe teritoriul Ucrainei.

Decebal , King of Dacia (87-106 AD) was a badass
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decebalus
Glad to see you were in awe of the beauty along the big river and enjoyed yourselves in the healing mountain hot waters!
The romans considered "barbarians" all those who were not part of the empire. Dacians were not savages.
The good part of Romanian tourism is that there are many foreign vloggers who value our country much better than the Ministry of Tourism. Love yor work guys.
6:30 avvvv Serbia loves you and me too. Haha u say my "youtube" name. ❤️❤️❤️❤️🇷🇸🇷🇸🇷🇸
you should visit Decebal fortress called Sarmizegetusa Regia,located in Costesti Hunedoara...its a beautiful area,same as Cazanele Dunarii
the Dacians cooked cabbage according to the same recipe. VARZĂ is a word of Dacian origin, not Latin
I love your video's. I have visited lots of times Moldova. But i never been to Roemenia. I love like Steve mici with mustard. I love the quietness of the countryside. 1 day i wanna move overthere. Thanks for the good and beautifull video's you make.
This is one of your best videos.
The state of many of the buildings at Băile Herculane is honestly a crime. It could probably be the nicest bath resort in Romania, perhaps in the region, but the whole potential is currently wasted.
That's because those are private properties and the owners are basically waiting for the old building to collapse in order to replace them with some kitsch hotels "Mamaia style". We can only blame the government for not coming up with laws that would confiscate historical buildings from owners who don't want or can't afford to renovate.
Hiii....Steve lvana, this is a nice relaxing vlog. Enjoy the nature, like Steve said , "God's grace all around you." The drone gives a fantastic, beautiful colourful view. Nothing beats to that. Thanks for showing us/me around in your travels. I stay home and enjoy watching those travelling. I don't know much of Romania but it's just a click on internet to find out/read on it. All l can remember is the gymnast Nadia, and the Romanian priest named Richard Wurmbrand, which l read decades ago . Very touching story of his persecution for his great faith and love for God, and for his fellow country men.
1. The only alive person I know who's name is Decebal is this famous Romanian journalist, also a Rapid fan, Decebal Radulescu.
2. Yes, Dacians were using coins and bread and other recipes. Actually, legend has it that the main attraction for the Romans to invade Dacia was fabulous gold reserve the Dacians owned. As a bonus, the Romans also discovered the Dacian beautiful women and delicious food. Next time, you have to make sure you visit Sarmizegetusa Regia, the capital of Dacia.
3. As side note for every good person who's about to visit that area, especially the wilderness there, be aware of the vipers! If you're a bad person, don't worry, there are no dangers and you may roam bearfooted. :)
Thank you guys, for all you do for promote Romania. Wish all the Best.
Decebalus meaning...
The strength of ten bears
Dece= 10
Balus = bears
Enjoy 🙂
Oh cool!
I thought zece was 10 and ursus was bears though?
Anyway shoutout to Decebalus
@@JetLagWarriors I'm sure "balus" is the Dacian term, while "ursus" is Latin. Love all your movies!
@@JetLagWarriors
Yes... you right but DECE it's the old latin language...
If you listen very carefully how the Italians pronounces 10 =Dieci 🙂
Dacian language it is the mother of the all latin languages... 7 left in the world... Romanian, French, Italian, Portuguese,Spanish... etc
Bal or balus ... pluralism
They use to call bal a bear... language changed because we have some slavic influence as well... 🙂
When Traian came to fight Decebalul... hi said... " I came on my ancestors land"
So... there we are...
The beautiful thing is ... whit the Romanian language... you can "bend or melt" the words and people from that region will understand you...
That means... thousands of years...
Good luck 🙂
@@JetLagWarriors Cool, but not true. He just made that up.
@@DukeOfTheYard he belives in that theory promoted by a guy, forgot his name... that dacians are the ancestors of the romans and that there are underground tunnels in the Carpathians with alien technology. 😂
Romania indeed has an amazing nature!!!🇷🇴👌🏻
There was no bread back then, but was mamaliga but not made from corn. And Dacians werent quite barbarians. They had religion and some sort of monetary system.
we dont need to create imaginary heroes like Superman,Iron-man,etc. we have Decebal,Burebista,Constantin Brancoveanu,Mihai viteazu,Stefan cel mare,etc.
Romans used the therm barbarian to describe any other people than romans. Barbarians were considered uncivilised, but actually it wasn't the case for all of them. When we speak about dacians, they were organised, they had cities, a king and a lot of evidence shows that they were pretty advanced. This is why romans conquered Dacia in such a long time. Besides that, romans were proud with this victory wich is considered the most important one (trajan column, arc of triumph with dacian soldiers, dacian sculptures in Vatican). So, they were so proud about conquering a tribal country!? I think not.
I’m from Galati, and i actually know a guy named Decebal. 😊
exact asta i-am scris si eu :)))))))))) 🍻
I saw a documentary that was saying that the dacian society was the second most technologically developed after romans in that ancient time, so dacians were not barbarians. Apart from this, awesome documentary, thank you for it. 🤗
U did FOARTE BINE Guys......thank u for promovate Beauty ROMANIA! U GUYS AWESOME🥰✌
The Dacian wall was famous, you can see it at Sarmisegetusa. Also the Dacian sword called a falx. The Romans designed a special kind of armour just to protect against this weapon. And their war flag in the shape of a wolf's head with a dragon tail.
Thank you all for your support

Zarmizegethoúsa) or Ζερμιζεγεθούση (Zermizegethoúsē), was the capital and the most important military, religious and political centre of the Dacians before the wars with the Roman Empire. Erected on top of a 1200 m high mountain, the fortress, comprising six citadels, was the core of a strategic defensive system in the Orăștie Mountains
Yes, they had towns... Cheers!
Congratulations!You visited almost all Romania
Traian is a more common name in Romania, but Decebal is ultra-rare.
we had a one Decebal Traian Remes guy in the goverment some 20 years ago :))
True, I think you meet a couple in life, same for the ones with the name Dacian
Oh my, how much I love you guys! I watched almost every video you have made in Romania. It's not just this country, but the way you see it it's so emotional for me as a romanian guy.
Greetings from „The other Capital”, Alba Iulia.🤗
Wow! Thank you so much for these spectacular drone shots. This is why I love travelling with JLW. So so beautiful. 6 STARS!
Hello explorers! If you want to know more about Dacians lifestyle and technolgy, I recommand to search "Dacians gold bracelet and coins". They also have an interesting story, you may find on Wikipedia. Thanks for this wonderful review, we appreciate :)
Thank you for the nice words. Often, we forget how beautiful this country is and we only focus on the negative things. Fortunately, there are still many foreign tourists who appreciate it. Respect!
woow Romania is amazing ..
Beautiful!!,next time when you visit us try to go to the Raven Nest,is located in Transylvania and i guarantee that you will enjoy the view
One of you best videos i ever saw on your channel about Romania ...incredible drone scene....plus, all the history details you said , ..wow..impressive...you are 2 incredible awesome people.
I really appreciate your travel around Romania, but one thing that you should know is that the Dacians were not at all barbarian, there is a lot of information misunderstood by people in general about the Dacians, they had a very interesting culture.
Romanian culture and traditions are a way more than you would ever be able to understand. Wish you lots of fun
Oh, my God, you are so arrogant! 🤦♀️
LOVE you guys! Steve you appeared on television called Digi24. It was a video about how visitors enjoy Roumanian traditional food.
You were presented enjoying “varza a la Cluj” and savarina!😊
Cool! How come they left out the mici though... 😁
Wow very beautiful 🤗
OMG....Drobeta Tr Severin, Orsova, Cazanele Dunarii, Baile Herculane, Decebal Sculpture and all of this under an amassing beautiful blue sky , fall colors...are you guy in Heaven? NO.... NO ....is just the area where I spend quite of time years ago, Oltenia/Romania. Enjoy and a big THANK YOU for you videos and SIX STARS !!!
The barbarian stereotype that was encouraged by the Romans still lives on to this day. However the Dacians were a settled people, they had towns and fortresses (a few ruins remain to this day), they had a capital at Sarmizegetusa (the ruins can be visited), they built roads, they mined gold (a prime reason why the Romans invaded), practiced agriculture and wine making. The Dacian Kingdom was a powerful entity at the time of Cesar and its king, Burebista, threw his support behind behind Pompey in the Roman civil war. At this time Dacia had conquered the Greek city states on the shores of the Black Sea (Tomis, Histria, Callatis) and it is said that Burebista could muster an army as large as 200,000. This figure is high for this era of antiquity and is disputed, though what isn't disputed is that the kingdom was a rich and influencial entity at the turn of the first millennium.
also, Decebal is pronounced De-tche-baal (same 'ch' sound as in 'dacian'), not like 'decibel' in English.
Exactly, it is ridiculous the king DECIBEL
Forgot to mention, that your vlog is the best about Romania. not even native romaians can come even closer.
It used to be sort of a popular name in Romania, both Decebal and Traian 😀. Nowadays people go for western names for thier children
Bro the dacians were not barbarians they had quite advanced Technology for the time the romans used the term "barbarian" for every nation of people that lived outside of the roman empire.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful video.
Just look up dacian gold and see for yourself what barbarians ( men with beards) did. Also, dacians were thracians, just not in the Roman Empire , a lot of roman eperors were thracians, really not barbarians in the sense you are insinuating, they were the same people separated by the Danube. Northern thracians (dacians) were not in the Roman Empire, thus barbarians. To be exact, the closest living language related to what ancient thracian people spoke is albanian because they resisted romanization up in the mountains, we have a lot of cognate words with them. Are they barbarians to you? Because they clearly weren't then, they were in the Roman Empire.
Thracians and dacians were not ethnically the same but had the same culture and customs
Madalina, vezi seria Noi Arianii Daci. Vei stii mai multe. "Barbarians" erau toti ne-grecii, denumire nascuta din cum ne auzeau ei limba, cu mult "bar" in ea. Iar cea mai apropiata limba de dialectul dacic e limba romana de azi, limba noastra.
@@sstoi
Nu mai fuma ce nu trebuie. "Tracii" nu au existat niciodata ca etnie. Era o porecla (Traxus, Traxi, singural, plural) data noua/dacilor de catre greci (noi fiind zeii razboiului, aka Arieni, neamul lui Arie), de la zeul grecesc al razboiului, Trax.
Arie e numele original, grecizat in Aries (cum il gasesti si in zodiac), apoi prescurtat in Ares.

Romans are mixed descendants of Trojans and native Italians (Etruscan and many more). Trojans are from Thracian family, like the Dacians/Getae. So they are all related in one way or another.
bro thank you for your Awesome rewiev , Romania need people like you .
We had family members travel the Danube by Riverboat through this area and they came enthralled by Romania. We planned another trip there but it was interrupted. We still hope to get back there soon. I was on a Danube cruise in Germany and Austria but it looks like Romania is more beautiful.
I hope Herculane Baths will rise again at it's first beauty because it is an unique place in Europe. Oltenia region is beautiful but is very underrated , everybody promoting only Transylvania.
Herculane is Banat region my friend.
@@lupak99 no one is considering that is in Banat even if it's 10 km away from MH county

Hi there, I am happy that you feel good in our Country , we wish you a nice stay. If you are amaze about our history of Dacians. Dacii were among the first nations in Europe just come to the capital of Dacia Ulpia Traiana Sarmizegetusa there as some amazing places here aka Hunedoara/Orăștie.
the Dacians were not barbarians . they had stronholds an citadels all over the country . you were in piatra neamt , over there is an stronghold Petrodava . in the N-NE part of the country lived the free dacians (no gold and very difficult terrain :D )
The Warriors back at it!
Love from your romanian fans! 🇷🇴🇨🇦
Excellent vlog Steve&Ivana 😍 Iron Gate Gorge is very special and great... I did the same route at the beginning of September, the barbarians were all the kingdoms that were not part of the Roman Empire, Dacia was a big powerful kingdom with strong cities and fortresses in the Orastie mountains in Hunedoara county you can visit the ruins of Daco-Roman cities.
There are actually people named Dacian (boys) and Daciana (girls)
România îs amazing . Îs incredible . Thanks
The drone shots and history. 10 stars!!!
Overrated opinion those frames aren't even then best You can get from Clisura of Danube .. Romania has more beuatiful landscapes then this
Mulțumim pentru promavare!petreceti un timp minunat aici!💕
Sunt sigur ca va înțeleg ce spuneți în limba română 😂😂😂 !!!
i might be wrong but as far as i know romans used "barbarian" as a term for anyone who didnt speak latin, it had nothing to do with the level o civilization.
This is very interesting! I wish I knew this beforehand. The word ‘barbarian’ threw me off a bit. I had to slowly realize how sophisticated they were 👍
@@JetLagWarriors if you are looking for more interesting stuff about the romans vs dacians look up the "falx", is was the sword the dacians used that made the romans change the type of helmet they used and probably the reason is took them so long to conquire dacia :)
All big empires think they're l'ombelico del mondo.. cream of the flippin crop
@@jhf893 they never conquered it entirely. There are Dacian descendants called "momârlani" in Apuseni(?) They mainly conquered the South, later Valachia
@@TOughC234 true but seeing how after trajan won the dacian tribes never united again i think its fair to say for the purpose of this discution that Dacia was conquired
Thank you for this nice video, also for not showing that much of Herculane, I know the historical center is in a very unfortunate state right now. Hopefully it will be done something about it in the future.
There are 16 Decebal in Canada, 22 in USA, 2 in Brazil. 952 in the world, most of them in Romania or Romanian origin.
Danube flows southeast for 2,850 km( 1075km in Romania), passing through or bordering 10 countries: Germany, Austria, Slovakia, Hungary, Croatia, Serbia, Romania, Bulgaria, Moldova, and Ukraine.
Lots of people all over the world they come to Romania. If im not wrong you both had the most time spend in Romania Beautiful Country ever been im glad you enjoy the here ❤
Please learn about the real history of Romania, and who the ancestors was...
The Dacians were cousins with Traian of Rome...and the Latin language comes from the old romanian language .
Same Italien, Spanish. .etc
I am not even Romanian myself and I notice the big mistake u guys made it in this video by calling the Dacians and their King Decebal barbarians. That my friend is far from truth because the Dacians that fight against the Roman EMPIRE even wining few times they have been very advanced people expecially for that time. Facts The Dacians knew about writing.Permanent contacts with the Graeco-Roman world had brought the use of the Greek and later the Latin alphabet.It is also certainly not the case that writing with Greek and Latin letters and knowledge of Greek and Latin were known in all the settlements scattered throughout Dacia, but there is no doubt about the existence of such knowledge in some circles of Dacian society.] However, the most revealing discoveries concerning the use of the writing by the Dacians occurred in the citadels on the Sebes mountains. Some groups of letters from stone blocks at Sarmisegetuza might express personal names; these cannot now be read because the wall is ruined, and because it is impossible to restore the original order of the blocks in the wall. 😉👍
Wow 😳 more content like this. Really nice hiking trails. This is going to be on my bucket list.
Welcome to Romania , Bine ati venit in Romania!
The Danube is the biggest river in Europe and starts in like Germany or Netherlands and ends in the Romanian Delta spilling into the Black Sea. Also, that stone sculpture of Decebalus is the largest rock sculpture in Europe, and she is right, it's kind of like Romania's Mount Rushmore. Another great video guys, thanks 👍
The Danube is not the longest river in Europe.
Volga e cel mai mare râu din Europa iar Dunărea izvorăște din Germania, munții Pădurea Neagră🙂
The Dunabe starts in the Block Forest, Germany and it passes through 7 countries ❤
Hey Steve and Ivona, since you are in Romania, you could go back to another neighboring country where you were, which is Serbia. Since you love sports events, you simply must not miss the basketball game of K.K. Partizan Belgrade in the Euroleague, where you have 20. 000 people in the sports hall cheering loudly, something unique in Europe and probably in the world. Also last time, you had one important task left to complete, which is to judge which city has a better barbecue, Niš or Leskovac. And to confirm or deny whether Serbian food is still in the top 2 foods in the world along with Malaysian food :D. Also, in addition to that, I would wholeheartedly recommend discovering the natural beauties of Serbia, reka Uvac (river), fortress Golubac, fottress Smederevo, Đavolja Varoš (Devils town), Stara planina, Mokra Gora (mount's), Palić lake. Мedieval monasteries built by our holy kings, with unique frescoes in Europe, Studenica, Mileševa, Žiča, and on Kosovo Dečani, Gračanica ...
sounds good! But we will do this spring time next year😁 Thank you!!
Romania you nead a life time to see all
We actually have people named after Decebal. And even one guy named Decebal Traian Remes ( check it out), who is now dead but was like a romanian politician. Decebal Traian, how cool is that? :D Thank you for the vlog, I love you both!!
That's right, and purely Romanian he was known to have taken a bribe in palinca and sausages when he was minister in office (!)
Your videos are extremely lovely! By the way, guys, as far as I know the word barbarian was used by romans to refer to pretty much anyone else. Hope to see more of you two, you're incredible!
Are you sure you want to be saying the Dacians are Barbarians while staying in Romania? I do not think this word is accurate.
We all we should promote the country it is a duty if is not a love thank you for uploud
We should all donate to archaeologists who want to save relics still being destroyed, erasing a mighty culture and identity. But it is a sign we should be citizens of Heaven, never mind Earth
Hi guys!
We met at the top of the mountain, the dog you fed followed us afterwards, whole trip.
i'm glad you liked our country !
So cool! Nice to meet you, and thanks for watching :) . What a great hike!
I don't know if it's already been mentioned and I won't get into details, but the Danube was actually not always that deep/wide there. In fact there's like sunken houses (wouldn't really say villages) in that area, due to the construction of the 2 dams a bit downstream.
Guys you have been almost everywhere in Romania, from north to south from west to east, I think theres only a few more places to see till you complete everything, Romania is not a big country, it is considered a medium country as size. Now that Lula de Silva won the elections in Brasil and the World Cup will start in 3 weeks, I can not wait to see the future brazilian vlogs too...
For vlogging maybe but not for life experince i visited 12 western european country working there but didnt understand almost nothing from their culture drinked with dukes in uk with contes in france and wreally rich people in Spain Germany Italy belgium and netherland and i speak read and write 5languages and i didnt understand shit from their culture they all about making money i dont need that im happy with what i have here and dont need more

I went from Timișoara to around near Craiova which is 398km, where my grandma lives. And the Danube river is huuge!
After i saw u having the bath, are you ready for something similar in Tuscany ? (just trying to guess where you went this week) 😁, can`t wait to see your upcoming videos.

Decebalus` Dacia was full of gold and gold coins. This was the reason the romans wanted to conquer Dacia. Unfortunately, the gold they took from dacians brought luxuury and ruin and corruptions and inflation, because it was too much. You can visit a roman gold mine in Transylvania. It is said Traian's ancestors came from these lands of Dacia. Also, the romans called/named barbarians all the non-roman states from the north of them. Also, "barbar" means "barbat" or "human male".
they were called barbarians by the romans because dacians didn't shave, but the roman army had to :)) (barba in italian is beard; barba => barbarian)
Actually, barbarian is what the Greeks called the Romans, meaning non-Greek-speaker. Just like neamț=mute/can't speak Latin. The Romans adapted it. There are many statues of Roman Emperors with beards. It was just more practical to cut it as a military leader/soldier and Romans were the definition of practical. They didn't even have time to create their own gods, they just imported Greek gods as they were and then the Hebrew god.
It had nothing to do with beards, stop making things up!
Dacia had a lot of gold and silver and also really rich in salt, also had a developed sociaty. It is interesting history if you need something to read on a long train jurney ;)
Wow what a nice view .
you guys know more and much history of Romanians l like your videos .
The Dacians were not barbarians, if you go and visit Rome Italy there are many Dacian statues, including Constantine Arch opposite the Colosseum and Piaza di Popollo, where they are dressed as aristocracy. Also Trajan Columns shows faces and behaviours of Dacian, the reason of invasion was Gold mines in Carpathian mountains, Romans left with hundreds of tonnes (reported by them), of gold and silver.
