The issue of Romanian national identity has acquired new values in the context of modernity, of the integration into the EU and in the wider context of internationalization and globalization. National identity is defined by a nation’s own national features such as the language, culture, religion, traditions, customs, but also by aspects of material culture: the land, the state territory, the national heritage, the national costume, the architectural, artistic and literary creation. The national character of the Romanians results from the representations and myths rooted in the collective memory, it is inherited but also acquired, it is part of the line of a historical evolution, which gives it stability but at the same time results from the ways of action, the ways of life, the habitual activity of the Romanians, which gives it dynamism. The love for the country where we were born begins and grows in the family we belong to, as well as in the school we attend. Every nation on the face of the earth must have love for itself, but also for the other, and knowledge of the value of its own national characteristics. The more national you are the more room you make for diversity. Because the dialogue has always been based on differences, we must each identify with the roots of the nation.
