Movile

Movile is a village noted for its medieval fortifications constructed by German immigrants at the behest of the Hungarian King in the 12th and 13th centuries.

In 1910 the population was 247 Saxons. Movile was part of Austria-Hungary until 1918, when it was transferred to Romania. By 1992, all of the Germans had left and the population was made up of 347 ethnic Romanians.

gollark: Are you just meant to act *as if* they are? Because that doesn't sound very... accurate to reality.
gollark: I remember reading about the AI box thing, but I don't know how it's meant to actually work as an experiment, given that the people are presumably aware that the other person is *not* a superintelligent AI and cannot do much to them.
