Isn't it a bit like ring around the rosey? Ok kids, lets get with it. Due to excessive lameness, I have to rate this dance a 0. You can do better than that, I'm sure.

@DianaLuntenSweden Not really, I'm not Wallachian myself, I'm just fascinated with how culture has been shared and how folklore happens to be the best evidence for it, to the point where people that nobody expects to have much in common happen to have similar or the same dance, for example.

Besides, jag älskar Sverige. I've spent my childhood in Malmö :)

@Firewalkerbg Searching for relatives?

[Firewalkerbg]

That's strange, but there is a folklore dance popular in Northern Bulgaria and (as far as I know most of) Romania, called Shira. Are there any Wallahs in Sweden, have any of them migrated there before 19th century?
