History of Europe

What was Romania call before the Romans named it romaina?

The territory that is now Romania was known as Dacia before the Romans conquered it. The name "Dacia" was first used by the Greeks in the 5th century BC to refer to the region inhabited by the Dacians, a Thracian people. The Romans used the name "Dacia" for their province established in the region after their conquest in 106 AD. The province of Dacia included parts of present-day Romania, Moldova, and Ukraine.
