Rumlar • Romans | A Greek Dance Tribute 🇬🇷 (Ρωμιοί)

Rumlar! The Romans, as being called in Turkish language, are the Greek descendants of the Eastern Roman Empire (Byzantine) who most of them are in Turkey. The Orthodox Christian citizens of modern Turkey or in other words the pre-Islamic ethnocultural Christian minorities have a rich culture that dates centuries and centuries ago. I'm here to present a dance tribute with popular folk songs and dances from Greeks from Cappadocia, Pontus, East Thrace, Constantinopole (Propontis region), Cyprus, Bithynia and Ionia. All historical regions of modern Turkey. All being traces of the multiethnic monocultural Eastern Roman Empire. Enjoy! ☦️ The video contains a map with historical/traditional name places of many important centers of Greek culture. 🇬🇷 ♦︎ Also, SUBSCRIBE to my channel!
