I am here know, thank you for such undeserved praise.
So what is it that you seek young man? To know your heritage is to learn the history basics, then learn choose and pick some favorite heros, then learn about the regions, the costumes and the customs, the architecture and the language. The most amazing thing about this country is how it stood up, while having at least three "enemies" at all times and then of course, there its medieval history (evil laughter...)

If you just need the reasurence that you were flesh from a place of heroes, the anwers is yes, we did kick a lot of @$$ and case to be will continue to do so. But no worry, were far from perfect or the only ones, even though we did such good job at it and were not only survivors.
You need to be concide and if I know the answer you shall have it.

Greetings,

Well, to arms and armour used in the Late Medieval Wallachia, I have been gaining most of my reliable information from Stoic Romulus on the drachenwald forum-SCA Romania. Also, I have then been asking questions about armour, and weapons mainly on Sword Forum International.

Well, anything else is all up in their air, I don't know enough, or even know what to really ask.

Your input Radu, and Manolo, would be very helpful!

Look forward to talking to you! Cheers!
