Another thing is many here (chiefly westerners) visit Romania and are prone to take every Gypsy for a local (since they are many in Romania) and from there the darkwashing of Romanians on the net. And, while you can find some people with certain Gypsy admixture among Romanians (which pretty much doesn't exist in the rest of Balkans), they are nowhere as common as some believe them to be, nor would anyone in their right mind include them in statistics like those I do (it's like including a half Nigerian in a study of Sweden).
