  1. Insulin by Nicolae Paulescu , wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicolae_Paulescu
  2. The Cholera Vaccine by Ioan Cantacuzino , wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ioan_Cantacuzino
  3. The first anti-diabetic treatment by Nicolae Paulescu
  4. The first geriatric therapy by Ana Aslan , wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ana_Aslan
  5. The first oil refinery in the world, invented by brothers Teodor and Marin Mehedinteanu in 1857 , wiki: https://ro.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industria_petrolului_%C3%AEn_Rom%C3%A2nia (use Google Translate, is in Romanian)
  6. The pen was invented in Romania first, by Petrache Poenaru , wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Petrache_Poenaru
  7. The first European city with electric lightning was Timisoara on November 12, 1884 , wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Street_light
  8. The first flight with a machine heavier than air, by Traian Vuia , wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traian_Vuia
  9. The first jet engine invented by Traian Vuia
  10. The first 10 in the history of gymnastics by Nadia Comaneci , wiki : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nadia_Com%C4%83neci
  11. The first number 1 in world tennis by Ilie Nastase , wiki : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ilie_N%C4%83stase
  12. The inventor of the Voronet blue color , wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vorone%C8%9B_Monastery
  13. Dracula, the story based on Vlad the Impaler , wiki:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vlad_the_Impaler

From the list above, most probably 90% of the people that do not know nothing about Romania, will recognize only Nadia Comaneci and Ilie Nastase, because even Dracula is not recognizable as it was a story written by Bram Stoker, a british author.

Romania means much more, stay tuned for more articles related to this beautiful country.
