 Demographics of Romania - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
About 89.5% of the people of Romania are ethnic Romanians, a group that — in contrast to its Slavic or Hungarian neighbors — traces itself to Latin-speaking Romans, who according to one theory, in the second and third centuries A.D. conquered and settled among the ancient Dacians, a Thracian people.
As a result, the Romanian language, although containing words of Slavic, Turkish, and other origins, is a Romance language related to, among others, Italian, Spanish, French and Portuguese.
