The story about Vlad Tepes inviting people to a great feast for free and than burning them alive is not about gypsies, it's about all the beggars and thieves, regardless of their origins. One fact about Vlad and the gypsies is that he offered them freedom in exchange for service in the military, which they happily accepted and created their own regiment with the crow mounted on a pole as their symbol. Upon first contact with the janissaries they instantly broke though, hence the popular saying: brave like a crow on a stick (when you're calling someone a coward).

Historians on the other hand, know that Vlad was always heavily outnumbered by the Turks and needed realistic ways of getting more soldiers. In this case it was freedom and spoils of war.

Fun Fact - The Institution of "King of the Gypsies" was already present in Poland as early as the XVIIth century. The Gypsy King was officially nominated by the King of Poland himself. He was however most of the time a random nobleman who wasn't even a Gypsy, and his job was to collect taxes from the Romani, and represent their interest in the Polish Parliment. The practice of Gypsy King was disbanded after the Polish Partitions, but it was brought back along with the regaining of independence of Poland in 1918.

A nation that doesn't know where their ancestral homeland is can't have one Up until our times the majority of people including the Romani themselves thought that they originate from Egypt and even today most of them still falsely believe the same thing Furthermore especially today I don't think that there is a single country in the world that will willingly give up even a square inch of their land to the Romani so that they can create their own country

[@svansy]

I'm Roma. i have never in my life met a Roma who wanted a nation of our own. we aren't a single people. that would be like a nation of all native peoples of the Americas - a super silly idea - each tribe has its own culture and even ethnicity. this entire idea is a concoction of European leaders trying to get rid of us, not our own idea. and Israel? Egypt? those are also not our ideas. also Europeans trying to get rid of us. in reality, our origin is a vanity fact - something nice to know, but has little to no impact on our contemporary cultures or lives. there might have been historical support by SOME Roma for these silly ideas (e.g. the ones becoming "kings"). but absolutely not a large portion 😁 we migrate to find a home where we can feel safe. and we continue migrating because there are very few places where we find safety.

The "King of the Gypsies" is a silly concept, many random Romani have claimed the title "King of the Gypsies", often to deal with an immediate threat by outsiders, they don't correspond to any "monarchy" we would recognize. And a country for the Romani is problematic - many Romani don't WANT a homeland, they embrace nomadic life. Morris Berman's "Wandering God" claims, among other things, that nomadic living is more often ideological choice rather than an economic necessity, and most modern nomadic societies began as countercultural movements that adopted travelling as a rejection of the social order (and to avoid government control). Thus they are feared and hated by governments (and publics) that can't track and control them.

This is very interesting. Here is what Wikipedia says about Romani in the USA: It is estimated that there are one million Romani people in the United States, occasionally known as American Gypsies. Though the Romani population in the United States has largely assimilated into American society, the largest concentrations are in Southern California, the Pacific Northwest, Texas, Florida and the Northeast as well as in cities such as Chicago and St. Louis.[1][4] The largest wave of Romani immigrants came from the Balkan region in the late 19th century following the abolition of Romani slavery in 1864,[1] which occurred as the Ottoman Empire was weakening. Romani immigration to the United States has continued at a steady rate ever since, with an increase of Romani immigration occurring in the late 20th century following the collapse of communism in Central and Eastern Europe.[1] The size of the Romani American population and the absence of a historical and cultural presence, such as the Romani have in Europe, make Americans largely unaware of the existence of the Romani as a people.[1] The term's lack of significance within the United States prevents many Romani from using the term around non-Romani: identifying themselves by nationality rather than heritage.[5]

The second-wave of Asian migration to America is a bit wayward if I grasp it correctly. The premise is that thousands of years after Central Asians followed megafauna across the Bering Strait to North America a more traditionally East Asian population were pressured to cross the Bering Straits. But when these migrants arrived on the new continent, the already settled Native Americans did not permit them to travel much south of the Arctic Circle and thus they were trapped in the Arctic Circle, in which time they adapted to some of the most extreme weather imaginable. I’ve got to imagine that when those East Asians decides to migrate they weren’t planning on settling for the Arctic Circle.

When we were young, our parents used to say that the gypsies would steal us from them if we didn't behave. Great tactic, I mean I did behave better but still kind of offensive lol

2:57 the institution of King of the Gypsies was known in Poland in 17th and 18th century (they were basically tax collectors, not necessarilty being Gypsies themselves); 8:55 Kwiek is pronounced like Kvyek (v like in van and ye like in yen); also if someone would be interested here's link to the whole video showed in the beginning kzbin.info/www/bejne/jmfOepSFqddse9U

gypsies were tax collectors? i find that hard to believe given they are nomads.

I’ve actually always wondered if there was a Romani equivalent to Zionism. I’ve heard people say that the Roma are proud of their nomadic and others say it’s just a stereotype I also say Roma and Romani because many of them find the term “Gypsy” extremely offensive. It goes to show the level of systemic racism towards Romani peoples in Europe.

[@GumSkyloard]

I don't think that Romani people have any sort of grand Zionism like movement, because no one seemed to actually decide on a homeland. Would it be in South Africa? Abyssinia? India? Central Asia? No one was sure.

[@therealspeedwagon1451]

@@GumSkyloard it would be in India of course because that’s where they can trace their ancestry back to

[@boopdino8053]

Unfortunately,its a tragic and sad reality that hate and systematic raciam against us is normalized. Its extremely rare to see someone who understands that romani people are more than their stereotype,and that the culture they are born in doesnt define them as people. Many of us are well integrated into society,and yet the first thing i was taught in life was to tell no one about your true identity. And for me its absurd that in the year 2022 such mindless animalistic hate is such a normality

[@passchen-fail3704]

They are not Roma. That is what Italians like me call Rome. They are not Romani. That is what Romanians call themselves ethnically. They must find their own way instead of being in the shadows of others.

The Gypsyes and the Jews went through the same sufferings, and that is why they are brothers. Only a Jew can understand the pain of a Gypsy and only a Gypsy can understand the pain of a Jew. As a Jew and a Zionist I definitely support a "Gypsy Zionism".

So you believe that Romani people should relocate to India and kick native families out of the homes they have been living in for thousands of years?

[@gajjc]

The nation of Romani has been largely based in the city of Roma, and have long since disappeared. One of their surviving descendant nation today lives in Romani-a - the land of Romani; or properly translated to English land of Romans. Roma - Rome; Romani - Latin plural form for romans; the Roma - gypsy name for Gypsy people This naming is linguistically and historically painful, and more so deceptive ..
