ROMANIA
    Modern Romania comprises old Wallachia, Moldavia, and Transylvania.  In ancient times there was a strong independent kingdom called Dacia.  Took the Romans a couple of centuries to destroy it, then they occupied and Romanized it for a few centuries, then a bunch of nomads came and went.  Modern Moldova was split off from Romania after World War II and would have joined Romania if the Russians had not forbidden it.
