The term Daco-Roman describes the Romanized culture of Dacia under the rule of the Roman Empire.

The colonization with Roman or Romanized elements, the use of the Latin language and the assimilation of Roman civilization as well as the intense development of urban centers, had led to the Romanization of part of the autochthonous population in Dacia.

The Daco-Romans now begin to assimilate the Slavs to form the Romanian people in a process that is probably concluded by the tenth century.
