Post your Romania 23andme Regions

[Seya]

Both Teleorman and Vaslui counties are highly rural and unsurprisingly underdeveloped.
There's one difference though: while Teleorman is aging superfast, Vaslui has very good birth rates. But having lots of young people in a place where there are no jobs (beside practicing subsistence agriculture) often leads to horrific events.

These young people need to be put into trades schools and moved to developed cities - there are no other solutions.

These are not the only ones mostly rural areas in the country. Before Dragnea no one talked about Teleorman or considered those people stupid

for Moldova region the Romanian administration after the annexation only had one policy: move the youth to other regions in hundreds of thousands to work to develop other regions, especially in factories but also as specialists once they finished college. Moldova was left agrarian, with no roads, no infrastructure, no youth. now we recover but it is a slow process. for West of Prut Moldova the annexation to Romania was in all honesty a bad choice, both economically and culturally.

but we're staying here to bring it up again, the past 10 years have been amazing and in this rhythm we'll be the top region in one or two decades.

Moldova underdevelopment is recent (it wasn't there during communism) and a result of having a very small government - the direct effect of having a 16% flat tax, which leaves no money for infrastructure spending. And so, really, investment happened only in areas where foreign money came in, and we know, very little foreign investment came to Moldova (basically none, outside Iasi and Galati).

Teleorman has been in top 5 least developed counties in Romania for a long time. But yes, it wasn't much of a topic before Dragnea moved all his Teleorman acolytes in the ministries (of the government) in Bucharest.

Sure. That must be the reason Moldavians like to drink in both moldovas. That’s the main problem.

Such degeneracy between Moldavians from RM like between these from Romania I never seen, despite we being less developed and poorer. In general Romania Moldova is a good window to us from RM, because looks basically the same like the Republic, in some areas looks even much worse, some places looks like India (if you know what I mean). Is a good example to shut up the mouths of apes who scream "Unire" on every corner till some local nigga will kick his ass.

You're very naive to think that Moldova will develop faster as a separate country. As it stands right now, Rep of Moldova is in a grey area, contested by both EU and Russia. No significant investment will come to the republic because of that. In Romania at least, Iasi, the capital of the Moldova region, gets some foreign investment. There are some multinational companies with regional headquarters in Iasi. Even Amazon has a large cloud development division in Iasi. Chisinau would have benefited from this kind of investment as well if it were part of Romania. Certainly, Moldova would still be the poorest Romanian region, but faster developing than now.

You seem to be really affected by the Moldovenism political trend from the republic, which is pushed by corrupt politicians who fear that the Union will lessen their grip on power. You need to understand one of the major benefits of being part of a larger country is that the center has power to remove these often corrupt and incompetent local politicians, that govern entire regions like their own family plot of land.

My nigga, you don't understand, vast majority of people are pro EU here, but at the same time vast majority don't want a union with Romania, because is one of the poorest and one of the most corrupted country in the EU. Is funny to hear from you about corruption here, and giving a impresion what Romania is some kind of promised land.
As I said early, Romanian Moldova is just a window to us, were we can see the hypothetical future if RM will become part of Romania. What is Romanian Moldova today? Correct, the most shittest and less developed part of Romania, with the fastest shrinking native population, indeed this region had a very glorious evolution after he became part of Romania aka Wallachia.

Corruption in Bucharest doesn't last long. Dragnea ended up in jail. Where's Plahotniuc now?

You're thinking in stereotypes my man. There's no policy in Bucharest to deliberately impoverish Moldova. It's only the effect of how little money the central goverment has and how little interest for foreign investors Moldova presents.

Btw, it's Wallachia that has the fastest shriking population (southern villages are dead), while Moldova has the best birth rates in the country. The problem is that this great birth rate occurs solely in the rural areas or places of no economic perspective. Even so, let's not compare Moldova with Rep of Moldova, please.

Romania is one of the poorest EU states, but it's leagues ahead of the Republic of Moldova, is it not? The comparison is between the R. Moldova and Romania, not Romania and the EU. I think R. Moldova would economically benefit much more than Romania would if a merger were to happen since Romania would have to support a poorer region to help bring it to the level of the rest of Romania. It's a similar case with Ireland and Northern Ireland where the Irish would have to pay more taxes if a merger were to happen to help bring NI to the level of the rest of Ireland.

I can understand Iasi, but why Galati? What's Galati's significance that helps it get foreign investment?

Galati is the second largest port in romania, after Constanta and it was the biggest until not long time ago
