#1923
- Scapegoat — A famous Romanian idiomatic phrase used to designate an innocent person, a low-ranking subordinate, or a minor employee who is administratively or politically sacrificed and turned into a scapegoat, being held solely responsible for a catastrophic error, corruption, or gross negligence committed by superiors or caused by a systemic failure. The origin of the idiom stems from a historical event in 1923, when a major train accident in Vintileanca station was blamed exclusively on a railway switchman named Ioan Păun to shield corrupt upper management.
