2. The southern and eastern parts of Romania were under the Ottomans domination, so the people from the towns were dressing like in the Turkish – Oriental Empire (Balkans, Near East, Middle East).

3. The rural part of Romania conserved the ancient Dacia’s clothes with some ancient Roman influences.
