Well, the name was based on Vlad Dracula (Draculea). Dracul was his father. Ruse, still upset that we chased away your spy, C*****?

The one who had a Romanian counterpart? Not a reason for me to be upset. Being a traitor to your own country is much worse than spying for a foreign one, don't you think?

K, k, i vote for Kri. He convinced me. BTW, I saw you talking about the folk dance called „sârba”. According to the dictionary, „sârba”, is a Romanian folk dance who was popular in the past also in the neighboring countries and with the Jews. I don't know the origin of the name but obviously has something to do with the Serbs, Probably it was influenced or popular with the mercenaries from the XVII-th century known as seimeni who were mostly Serbs or form Serbia. This one is played by Zamfir, It's called in fact Sârba bătrânească. Second one it's one of my favorites. And since the future moderator is a Serb, some Serbian attempts at playing Romanian songs:

Sejmeni were the citizens of villages in ottoman Turkey who were Bulgarians, read a little before coming to conclusions. There are two names of such villages in Turkey and both of them are close to the Bulgarian border.

Seimeni (plural of Seimen) designates the group of flintlock-armed infantry mercenaries charged with guarding the hospodar and his Court in 17th and 18th century Wallachia and Moldavia. They were mostly of Serb and other Balkan origin.
The designating term is of Turkish origin: seğmen means "young armed man". In modern transcriptions of Slavonic, it may also appear as simén (plural: siméni) or siimén (siiméni). [edit] Rebellion
Menaced by the growing privileges of boyars and threatened to lose land grants or be turned into serfs, the Wallachian seimeni rebelled in 1655, being crushed after Prince Constantin Şerban enlisted the help of George II Rákóczi, Prince of Transylvania, as well as that of Moldavia's Voivode Gheorghe Ştefan.
After exercising a rule of terror in Bucharest, capturing and executing several boyars, they were decisively defeated by Rákóczi on June 26, 1655, in a battle on the Teleajen River.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seimeni

It seems this Sejmeni is a name of a town also found in Rep. Srbzskvzá. Regardless of its origin, Sârba is connected to Serbs. Serb and Romanian music influenced one another and as the saying goes, "Music is the soul of languages." As such, one can say that Serbs and Romanians have shared, to a small extent, one of their most intimate shares of their folklore. Too bad the same cannot be said about other neighbors in the south. This shows, once again, that love cannot be forced upon; and your imprint on Romanian adminitrative culture was forced by a small elite and not chosen by the common people. When the common people, backed by enlightment and a new intellectual elite had a say in this matter, they repelled your legacy in the same fashion a doctor tries to seperate a virus from the organism.

Well, we are happy the names of some of your places remain in the way Bulgarians say it. Like Cherna Voda, which in Serbian would be Crna Voda. Anyway, your folklore and the Serbian one have little to do in common. It's a shame that I have to tell you this. p.s. Would you do some search for me wherever in the net and show me some similarities between Romanian and Serbian folklore? Thank you in advance.
