Cultural Note

Nostalgie overlaps significantly with the concept of 'dor' in Romanian but is more specifically tied to memories of the past. After the fall of communism in 1989, Romanians developed a complex relationship with nostalgie — sometimes called 'ostalgie' for the communist era, where people miss certain aspects of the old system despite its oppression.
