Summary/Abstract: This way, Aromanians agreed to support the Ottoman multinational state within they thought they could find their place and political supporting. Moreover, Aromanians contributed to the reformation and modernization of the Ottoman state, leading to the creation of conditions favouring the assertion of the Aromanian community from the Balkan region. The Aromanians’ myths generally are not founding, they rather retell the destruction of a place (Moscopole, Gramoste and others). The myth from 1913 as being considered „the black year” for the Aromanians certainly refers to the appearnce of borders in the territories with Aromanian inhabitants, to the impossibility to have a traditional living standard and to the breakage of the union of the Aromanian world. Regarding this year, there are many impressions, many suppositions and many critics as well as the events that happened then.
