Variaș
Variaș ( hu, Varjas; german: Warjasch; sr, Варјаш, Varjaš) is a commune in Timiș County, Romania. It is composed of three villages: Gelu, Sânpetru Mic and Variaș (commune seat). Etymology The name of the locality comes from ''varjú'', which in Hungarian means "crow". The name ''Varjas'' is probably related to the heraldic element of a departed noble family. After the repopulation of Variaș with German settlers, the Germanization of the name in ''Krähendorf'' was unsuccessfully attempted. The name ''Varias'' appears on Count Mercy's map of 1723 and is repeated on the maps of 1753, 1777 and 1783, respectively (in the form of ''Wariosch''). Immediately after the union of Banat with Romania in 1918, the commune bore the official name ''Dănciulești'', a name that was given up on the occasion of the administrative-territorial reform of 1925. Geography Variaș is located in the northwest of Timiș County, on the border with Arad County, about 41 km northwest ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Romania National Under-21 Football Team
The Romania national under-21 football team, also known as Romania under-21s or Romania U21(s), is considered to be the feeder team for the Romania national football team.

As long as they are eligible, players can play for Romania at any level, making it possible to play for the U21s, senior side, and again for the U21s. It is also possible to play for one country at youth level and another at senior level (providing the player has not played a senior competitive game in his previous country.)

Romania qualified for the 1998 UEFA European Under-21 Championship, and under Victor Pițurcă reached the quarter-finals, where they were knocked out by the Netherlands. ...

FC Steaua București
FC Steaua București was a Romanian professional football club of which two current entities are claiming the records. The original ''FC Steaua București'' team was part of the namesake CSA Steaua București sports club and belonged to the Ministry of National Defence. In 1998, the club and facilities were separated from the sports club and taken over by a group of shareholders in a post-Ceaușescu privatisation scheme, allegedly leading to one of the shareholders (Gigi Becali) acquiring full ownership five years later. However, CSA Steaua București sued the football club in 2011, claiming that this was a new entity; the two have since been in a legal conflict regarding the ownership of the Steaua brand and honours, which resulted in multiple court cases and the forced change of the name of ''FC Steaua București'' to FCSB in early 2017. UEFA and LPF are attributing all of the original club history to FCSB. According to the newest court decision, CSA Steaua holds all honours up ...
