Romanistan

Romanistan, Romastan or Romanestan is the name of a proposed country for the Romani people.

In the early 1950s, Roma leaders petitioned the United Nations for the creation of their own state, but their petition was rejected. Creation of such a state was also reportedly suggested by the leaders of Romani party in Hungary and party in North Macedonia known as the Party for the Complete Emancipation of Roma in the early 1990s at Šuto Orizari.

Given the origin of the Romani people in medieval India, Romanistan has been envisaged as being within the borders of India.
