Romanian American - Romanian American Culture

Romanian American Culture

Romanian culture has merged with American culture, characterized by Romanian-born Americans adopting American culture or American-born people having strong Romanian heritage.

The Romanian culture can be seen in many different kinds, like Romanian music, newspapers, churches, cultural organizations and groups, such as the Romanian-American Congress or the Round Table Society NFP. Religion, predominantly within the Romanian Orthodox Church, is an important trace of the Romanian presence in the United States, with churches in almost all bigger cities throughout the country. American children of Romanian origin are often taught both Romanian and English.

Romanian cuisine is also praised very often in the United States and included in newspaper reviews (Chicago Tribune, for example). One of the best known foods of Romanian origin is Pastrami.

    It is not part of a true culture to tame tigers, any more than it is to make sheep ferocious.
