This book debunks the myths and historical forgeries about Central-Eastern Europe, which are still present today in treatises and encyclopedias, due to the lack of opposing voices. It uses numerous Latin, Byzantine, Papal, German, Slovak, Saxon, Swabian, Hungarian, Ruthenian and Romanian sources, and synthesizes the works of the most important authors who have focused on the middle basin of the Danube: George Barițiu, Ioan Slavici, Robert William Seton-Watson, Milton Lehrer, Johann Weidlein, and David Prodan. This research brings to light a unique, paradoxical social phenomenon, in which a minuscule minority dominates, through a culture of intolerance, a non-homogeneous but overwhelming majority. The truth revealed here is brilliantly and unquestionably confirmed by genetics, a science that cannot be manipulated.

Octavian Căpățînă was awarded a master's degree in electronics in 1971. As a researcher in the computing field between 1974 and 2000, he built the first microprocessor computer in Romania in 1976, and later wrote the bestselling technical book Designing with Microprocessors. Between 1980 and 1985, he designed and built a plotter and three generations of command units for electrohydraulic robots, as well as the command units for a flexible manufacturing cell. His latest book in the field of technology, The Large Grid Integration of Small Photovoltaic Cells, was published in 2020. Căpățînă is also the author of several published books in the field of European culture and history, including The Towns of Transylvania (1995), The Encyclopaedia of Outstanding Romanian Personalities (2013), Culture, Confession, Ethnicity and Race in Transylvania, Tisa Plain and Pannonia (2017) and The Spirit of Europe along with a Chronology (2022).
