Wikipedia: The origin of the Romanians - the ethnogenesis of the Romanian people - can be traced back to the region’s Romanized inhabitants living, within the Roman Empire, in the lands north of the Jireček Line (an imaginary line which had divided the influences of the Latin and Greek languages in Southeastern Europe before the 7th century). Besides the Romans and the Romanized autochthonous population, the Slavs also played a vital role in the formation of the Romanians. The early Romanian language, perhaps as early as the 10th century, began to split into four dialects which later tended to become languages in their own right.
