Romania has the same borders as the Dacian Kingdom. Are Romanians genetically descended from Dacians? Is Romanian the closest language/ethnicity to the Dacians? If so, why did the Wallachians, Moldavians, & Transylvanians create a new "Romanian" identity instead of revitalizing the Dacian identity?
