Summary/Abstract: The Phanariot period in Romanian history is synonymous for many people with the corruption, the excessive fiscal policies, the denouncements , the hope of rapid enrichment, the endless conflicts between Boyars of Wallachia and Moldavia, the Greeks and the rapacious rulers, the monasteries dedicated to the Holy Places of the Orient and especially, the resentments of population against the privileges of the clergy and monks Greek etc. A closer look at social realities reveals the interest of some rulers to the good functioning of the administration, education and culture in the Principates, often appealed to the concepts and reformist ideas. But it's really important was that the Wallachia and Moldavia did not lose their autonomy although it was limited. The presence of a Christian ruler at their head was the symbol of the preservation of the statehood. The rest are details or are the pages from lives people who have lived in that period full of major provocations.
