Wales, Romania and Israel, what a year. 

Yes, I think so.

Or because Romanians are craving for praising words. A Romanian won't look for English videos to understand his history.

​@@ciprianpopa1503 you'd be surprised. For myself I searched a lot of things about Dacia in English just because I wanted to find information which is not so biased. You know all too well that in Romanian what information you find about Dacia is either "the greatest empire that ever was" or "absolutely nothing coherent" 😅. I found more reliable information in English than in Romanian...

​@@octavian8b Exactly! Two Romanian historians I've heard lately, saying we DON'T KNOW what happened, nothing is been verified,.... yet foreign books and historians, talk a ton about the region' activities.

@@octavian8b relatable or reliable? If it's relatable than you are into the cited confirmation bias.

Some of us are interested. But it's true a lot of natives have internalised the hostility and propaganda against it.I don't know how weshould challenge this.

More Welsh business will help change things.

I know, I'm fascinated by Welsh culture.

As an Englishman I strongly believe in fostering the native British languages. English of course is NOT the native British language although I have always considered myself very British but I fully understand the resentment of the Welsh concerning the emasculation of their language.

Multumesc.

Sper că circumstanțele îmi permit.

​@@BenLlywelynYou know to speak romanian? / Știi să vorbești românește? Or are u using google translate?

@@BenLlywelyn e... circumstantele, Ryan Air e ieftin.

Thank you. And good suggestion of a very debatable and misty time in history.

I think Romania is doing quite well.

Will rise well once the corruption is diminished . Because I do not see it sufficiently dismantled in Romania to where it would become statistically insignificant.

After the 1989 coup d'état, Romania's leadership is 90% allogeneic. These allogens were busy destroying everything Romanian. ..Romania in reality it's doing quite bad @@BenLlywelyn

Thank you.

Sper că circumstanțele îmi permit.

​@@BenLlywelyn Spermata 😅😅

@@BenLlywelyn is that google translate? cos that was impeccable :)

@@BenLlywelyn WizzAir is also cheap, and Hungarian... lol

Kind indeed. Thank you.

Thank you for being on this journey.

I found out from Ben Dacian "codru' Welsh"coedwig" Both meaning forest

Love it. Thank you.

If you are ever in the Abertawe (Swansea) area, let me know. I cannot promise I will be free, but worth a shot.

@@BenLlywelyn most certainly will.

Calling a Welshman an Anglo-Saxon is like calling an Estonian a Russian. Whoa there. :)

@@BenLlywelynYou’re not a Welsh-man though. You live in Wales and have a British passport, that’s it.

@@BenLlywelyn Aaaah. Got it.

Stii tu ca nu e Welsh .....@@JB-wh9ux

He is Welsh,noti Anglo-Saxon.This is like you called me Austro-Hungarian,though I am a Transylvanian Romanian.When I was a boy I was watching at the Romanian TV a series about the Knights of the Round Table and I wad reading ''How green was my valley ''by Richard Llewline.I recommenf both of them to you.

Romano Britons is a goos subject.

I don't know, but a video on that subject is likely. Diolch yn fawr.

Happy New Year!

Fascinating.

Thank you very much. Plenty of Welsh history content and a few lessons here for you in the prior videos.

There is some of that in the Celts in Romania video. And thank you.

@@BenLlywelyn i'll go watch that too then, I don't know why youtube didn't recommend it to me. I also love Welsh history, sounds like it's going to be an amazing year on youtube!

Fantastic.

We are pray for Israel every Shabbat at my synagogue.

Diolch yn fawr. Da dy weld yma eto. Blwyddyn newydd dda.

Astute, and fascinating.

Romania was much less time and only 20% of the territory was under Roman occupation. But we are the etruscans ancestors and also the goths that destroyed the Roman empire in 410.( visigoths are dacians, the getae). So the Roman empire, we made it, we Destroyed it 😂.

And you invented Japan and velcro.

Locul idiotilor ca tine e pe alt canal . Omul asta tocmai s-a lamurit , nu de mult cat de imbecili pot sa fie unuii din natia noastra . Tu esti exemplul !@@mihaiilie8808

​@@BenLlywelyn 😂😂😂😂 I thought the polish did that

On a British legion in Dacia*

Google "People of Birdoswald" You'll see writings that after the 1000 strong "Cohorts Aelia I Dacorum" some other 11000 followed to Hadrian's wall, for work or enroll in Roman army

See the video about the Welsh Dragon origins, but yes, the Dacian Legion in Britain could be interesting. Though that is covered about as deep as I can go in the Welsh Dragon video.

@@Edarnon_Brodie if there was one, why not? But I know there was a Dacian one in Britain.

Thank you Dianne. Maybe putting off the synagogue makes it more sweet or more of a realisation that it was what was to be done in the end? Between Hungary, Wallachia, Transylvania, Jews and so many other groups, Romania is a country with many layers to uncover!

Nice.

Croeso / Welcome. Like you in a way, I am flabbergasted at the response of many to 7th October, siding against our friends in the region and toward our enemies in terrorist organisation and Jihadist ideas, and turning on the Jewish community when WW2's ashes were the foundations of our current ethics. Short memories it seems.

@@BenLlywelyn Yes. Unfortunately they don't understand this war isn't Israel-Palestine, it's Israel-Hamas/Jihad, and horrors like 9/11 too will be repeated if the circle of terror doesn't end. I do hope and pray for peace, I believe everyone does. In the end of the day we're all humans who just want to live their life.

I have to learn about that first.

Stalin was not a nice fellow.

Yes, mystery creates attraction.

Alexandru Ioan Cuza and his Legacy.

Peace is the best hope.

Wdym not equal? Ive never been treated as less than equal, perhaps you are a romani and therefore dont look european, unlike real romanians. If you are a romani, do not call yourself romanian

DNA test needed.

See my DNA of the oldest european( civilisationS) that emerged from under the Black Sea. Where the Occitania visigoth dacians and the etruscans come from. i.postimg.cc/7hmt2wwz/mt-DNA-T1-map.png

Interesting. According to my DNA tests (I've done 3 with different companies), it seems I am basically Ashkenazi Jewish with a small bit of Norwegian. That in itself is not a big deal but apparently I have this Norwegian bit on bth maternal and paternal sides. One test result did indicate some Eastern European and Central European. But in none was Italian present. I find that odd because to buy knowledge the Ashkenazi culture began with Jews making their way from Northern Italy over the Alps into Switzerland and Austria and into the Rhineland of west Germany and North France (where etc Ashkenazi culture had it's genesis). From my known paternal ancestry (just before leaving Europe) was from Bukovina, the Carpathians in what is present day Romania. My maternal ancestry just before leaving Europe was from Moldavia/Moldova. I have been to Israel twice and it was amazing to be there. The people are amazing , the food is amazing, the land is amazing. The one thing that Oct 7 did, was to unite ALL OF US JEWS from every corner of the planet.

@@Lagolop Welp; we can take a guess at why your ancestors left Norway at least xD "In 1687, Christian V rescinded all Jewish privileges, specifically banning Jews from Norway, except with a special dispensation. Jews found in the kingdom were jailed and expelled, and this ban persisted until 1851". [History of the Jews in Norway - wikipedia]

Zionism is an integral part of Judaism. The daily prayers, the beliefs, the culture. The fringe anti-Zionist Jew sect do not represent 99% of Jews.

@@BenLlywelyn should i understand that before the end of 19th century, judaism wasnt complete! .. Sect..?? Being zionist is not about religion, is about politics.

​@@cip5949 Zion is from the Torah.

@@achilles7607 not the contemporary sort

@@cip5949 Explain...

I believe he refers to the Hamas organisation and not Palestine altogether. He said that Israel is fighting an organisation, not a country, so this is what I understood at least... But again, what I understood is not necessarily to be what he meant to say 😅 😅

I want Israel to live in peace. And I want Palestinians liberated from Hamas and radical Jihadist ideology, and for young men to be able to be gay in Gaza without being murdered.

​ @blodaumelyn? *..Semintiei tale* ( ABRAHAM..ISAAC ) *dau ȚARA asta, **____dela rîul Egiptului_*_ (Nil ) _*_pîna la rîul cel mare, rîul Eufrat____* Geneza/Facerea 15:18 ..vorbimsecolul 18 ÎEN in zona numita CANAAN... Datorita unei FOAMETE, israelitii se duc in Egipt ( un trib de citeva familii) si cind se intorc ( 3 milioane) gasesc teritoriul OCUPAT dupa care urmeaza *EXODUL* si recucerirea CAANANULUI Deci teritoriul accordat lui ABRAHAM: parte din Egipt, Peninsula Sinai, toata IORDANIA, ISRAELUL, Lebanonul, Siria, parte din Irac, parte din Arabia Saudită...unii speculeaza ca toata Arabia Saudită. Niciodata nu a avut Israelul aceasta suprafată, completă: 300,000 mile2 = 776,996.433 km2, azi detin 8130 mile2, mai putin de 10% din teritoriul atribuit de DUMNEZEU în Geneza 15:18 lui ABRAHAM si urmasilor lui. ISRAELUL este singura tara din omenire careia DUMNEZEU ii desemneaza un ACT de PROPRIETATE = TITLE DEED _____Geneza 23:1-20 Abraham _*_CUMPĂRĂ_*_ pămint în tinutul Hebronului ca s-o îngroape pe Sarah_____ Sunt tot timpul abordati, Israelul de azi, sa CEDEZE teritoriu in schimbul PĂCII? Seriously? 😢😢😢 Cel mai aproape de teritoriul original, a fost sub regii *Saul, David, Solomon* Chiar foarte aproape, cam pe la 1000 ÎEN, cind au fost scrisi PSALMII Israelitii au fost împrăștiați printre natii care i-au persecutat.... 2500 de ani, dar tot au existat evrei in zonă, chiar si dupa ce IERUSALIMUL si TEMPMUL sunt distruse de *ROMANI in 70 EN* Evenimentul este descris de istoricul evreu JOSEPHUS in cartea *Razboiul evreiesc* in care printre altele pomeneste de Ioan Botezatorul si de ISUS.. A fost o CONTINUITATE si e aceaiasi situatie cu continuitatea dacica in Romănia. Ca sa-i umileasca pe evrei, și să li se stearga numele, , Romanii RENUMESC tara: *PALESTINA de la FILISTINA* in loc de *JUDEEA* ( West Bank = CISORDANIA ) asta in 132 EN, dupa a 3 a rebeliune evreiasca împotriva romanilor condusă de BAR KOKHBA .. Tot felul de Imperii se succed peste aceasta zonă: Egipt, Siria/Asiria, Babilon/Irac, Persii/Iran Grecia,Romanii, Bizantinii, Cruciatii, Mamelucii, Otomanii În 1917, Imperiul Otoman, pierde razboiul impreuna cu Germania. Imperiul Britanic, ia conducerea zonei si prin *DECLARATIA de la BALFOUR* Israelului i se accorda un teritoriu destul de mare care cuprindea Iordanul de azi, clar si la Vest de Iordan la Est si West de riul IORDAN. Deci erau evrei in Palestina? in 1917 de s-a pus problema sa li se alocheze un spatiu. Atunci de ce toata lumea, azi pretinde ca pina in 1948 14 mai, evreii nu aveau bucata lor de pamint? Familia Hussein, iordanieni, se opune si in 1922, Declaratia BALFOUR este renegata de Parlamentul Britanic. Se creaza, din portiune acordată Israelului TRANSJORDANIA in estul riului Iordan si Israelul in Vestul Iordanului. Churchill, in 1922, a retrasat cu creionul si rigla, o linie de-a lungul IORDANULUI, Nord-Sud, granitele, in favoarea arabilor, ...evreilor accordindu-le un spatiu mult redus decit cel accordat de DUMNEZEU in Geneza 15:18, si de Declaratia originala de la Balfour din 1917 Ca acuma, sa stea pe o mica FÎȘIUȚĂ de teritoriu si să le spună ară boii că sunt impostori? Ilegitimi? Impostori sunt Palestinienii. Romanii au numit zona Palestina. Se vehiculeaza ca ei se trag din filisteni, dar ADN ul lor este siriac, egiptean si lebanez. În timpul otomanilor nu erau granite bine definite intre aceste grupuri etnice si circulau intre ele in stînga si-n dreapta, la sud la nord... tinuturile erau ale tuturor si a nimanui in acelasi timp, cu un numitor comun, Imperiul Otoman, urmat de cel Britanic PS: Galateni 3:29 *..si daca sunteți ai lui HRISTOS SINTETI SĂMÎNTA lui ABRAHAM* Nu sunt evreica

Într-un interview dat de omul de afaceri si politician, palestiniano-Iordanian TALAL-ABU-GHAZALEH a declarat: *Israelului îi e frica de moarte. Israelul nu ar SACRIFCA O SINGURA PERSOANĂ. Moartea pentru ei este străină si dezgustătoare. La noi, palestinienii, un parinte își cară copilul pe umeri cu o banderolă pe frunte pe care scrie: CĂUTĂTOR de MARTIRIAT. Alt parinte spune: "Vreau ca copilul meu sa moară" O mama palestiniană spune la noi: "Am născut copii, pentru ca ei să devină MARTIRI. Asta nu exista în mentalitatea ZIONISTĂ. Noi BINEVENIM MOARTEA* Copii de 9-12 ani sunt învatati de parinti si profesori/invatatori, sa spună: *În momentul acesta sunt gata sa devin o bomba suicid* *Voi lupta pentru ISIS, Statul ISLAMIC* *Sunt gata să înjungîi un evreu si să calc peste el cu masina* *Înjunghiind si călcînd cu mașina peste evrei, aduce DEMNITATE Palestinienilor. Noi trebuie să ne luptam cu ei, sa facem RAZBOI* Bombardarea acelui Spital a fos facuta de gruparea JIHADUL PALESTINIAN ISLAMIC, nu de Hamas. Presedintele lor a declarat: *Asasinarea/omorirea evreilor VA CONTINUA. ASASINEAZA, ASASINEAZA în Numele lui ALLAH pînă cînd VOR DISPĂREA* Cu asta se confruntă VESTUL. Face Pace cu ei vor omorî din nou.

@@BenLlywelynThey would throw gay people off the nearest tall building if they were found in gaza. Thanks to Israel there will be no tall building anymore ;) The only place ALL people are safe and protected in that part of the world, is in Israel ... and that includes even muzlims. Am Israel Chai, thank God for Israel and God bless our soldiers. And Ben, welcome to the tribe. We are a very special people to say the least ... unusual and very special. As you are aware we never proselytize and there is no missionaries in Jewish life. It's hard to convert for sure, but conversion is the way a person not born to a Jewish mother, gains membership into the tribe. Once converted the converts are held in the highest regard. My brother's wife converted from Catholicism. She is native American. But because she converted prior to giving birth, all their kids are automatically Jews. Not because of my Ashkenazi brother, but because of their convert mother. Their kids are members of 2 aboriginal peoples, two tribes :)

Croeso mawr!

If I had the opportunity to live in Romania with a good income and life for a year or two, I would take it.

@@BenLlywelyn make RU-vid your income, living in Romania in villages is dirty cheap, for real, you can rent a decent house for 100 quid a monthor maybe for 200, as a non resident no taxes to pay, genuine fresh food from neighbours is also cheap, you cook you eat, or pay someone to add you to their family menu and don't cook, you can live under 300 quid a month there. In the cityes is different, Cluj will cost more than Wembley, Bucharest is not far behind, Timisoara and Brasov are at about 60% lower than Cluj, so not worthed, besides cityes are perverted, fast food, multilingual, good for tourism for a week, but that is all. Internet in Romania is the fastest in Europe for now. Run the math, and think of it.
