Nice video, too bad that it was raining. I have to say that you saw only half of what you could've seen in Bucharest, the guide from the car ,,Andrew" (Andrei) was horror :) probably you caught him in a bad day also he sometimes presented with a form of negativism beside that his infos was, lets say, incomplete, he presented you some buildings with ,,Russian influence" when in fact they were Neoclassicism architecture combined with other styles . I dont know from where to start, for start never existed a Hungarian Empire, it was a Austrian Empire that for a period time the German ruling class made a compromise and added the name ,,Hungarian" after some revolts of Hunagrians. I'll try to not judge him about his feelings about the Orthodox religion (Romanian Orthodox Patriarchate), but its silly to think that a few million euros (from public money, because a large part of the building cost is from donations) allocated each year (building project for 10 years) for the new cathedral its causing problems to a public health system that is funded with billions of euros per year, its a nonsense. The biggest part of Romanians (Wallachians, Aromanians, Megleno-Romanians, Vlahi etc), like the rest of the planet population, was illiterate until the half of the XIX century, to be even more explicit, until around the XIX century didnt existed a public education system. In Europe, the empires, countries etc used Lingua franca for their ruling classes and religious cults. Ruling class and church (almost exclusively Catholic) from aprox half of Europe until the XVIII-XIX century were using a much improven Latin writing language, and the rest of Europe ruling class and church (Orthodox) were using Greek and Slavonic (Cyrillic) writing language . I have a lot of infos to give because of the strange guide you had, but i dont have so much time to continue. Best regards from Romania
:) OMG, the guy was so full of negativism, he presented everything with a form of hate and so simplistic, beside that he provided a mix of real and partial fake infos and sometimes incomplete
Enjoyed watching that. Looking forward to going to Bucharest with some Romanian friends next year.
