The Romani (also Romany, Romanies, Romanis, Roma or Roms; exonym: Gypsies; Romani: Romane or Rromane, depending on the dialect) are an ethnic group living mostly in Europe, who trace their origins to medieval India.

The Romani are widely dispersed with their largest concentrated populations in Europe, especially the Roma of Central and Eastern Europe and Anatolia, followed by the Iberian Kale in Southwestern Europe and Southern France, with more recent diaspora populations in the Americas and, to a lesser extent, in other parts of the world.

Their Romani language is divided into several dialects, which add up to an estimated number of speakers larger than two million. The total number of Romani people is at least twice as large (several times as large according to high estimates), and many Romani are native speakers of the language current in their country of residence, or of mixed languages combining the two.

Legend of Zelda Majora's Mask: Do I have to have Romani's Mask?
Q. I am really frustrated with having to talk to the same people over and over and over and frankly I am sick of trying to fight off the aliens to get Romani's mask. My question is do I have to have Romani's mask to progress forward? Must you collect every mask to progress (other than the transformation masks of course). I really just want to go to Great Bay because like I said I'm tired of constantly doing the same exact thing over and over. Thanks for your help!

A. Hi, alright, no you do not have to do it (I highly reccomend it though). If you're having trouble with it try playing the song of time backwards to slow time, it makes the aliens move really slow so it's a piece of cake. The reason you should get it is because at the end of the game if you collect every mask you get one final one (fierce deity) that is incredibly powerful. Also on the gormon bros. chase you have unlimited arrows so as soon as one starts to approach wreak havoc on him until the cows come home.

Social-Protection(Roma in Romania and Italy)?
Q. Hi, would someone be able to assist me in an assignment I am doing. We are required to write a report about social protection in three EU countries, one of which must be a recent member. I have decided to do the Irish Traveller and the Romani people living in Italy and Romania. Does anyone know where I could get info in relation to the Romani people in terms of healthcare, access to education etc. Thanks.
