In December 1989, Romanians overthrew dictator Nicolae Ceasescu, ending more than forty years of Communist totalitarianism.
Twenty years later, Romania is a thriving democracy, an economic success, and a member of NATO and the European Union.
What's the story behind the Romanian miracle?
Join former United States ambassador to Romania Jim Rosapepe and his wife, award-winning journalist Sheilah Kast, on an amazing tour of an amazing land—beyond Dracula, beyond orphans, beyond Communism, to the vibrant culture, unique history, and 21st century skills that define modern Romania.
More than a travelogue or memoir, Dracula Is Dead: How Romanians Survived Communism, Ended It, and Emerged Since 1989 as the New Italy presents Romania through American eyes, taking you with Jim and Sheilah as they discover a remarkable country of boundless hospitality, brilliant skills, and a bright future in a peaceful Europe.
A strong, creative, charming, democratic nation following years of dictatorship and isolation, Romania really is the new Italy.
See for yourself.
