Sad story... The truth is we are expanding way too much, we want perfect gardens, no "pests", no nothing, just perfect totally unnatural grass directly from the shelf, and in doing that we are destroying irreversibly whole habitats...
So, still sorry for those people...
Not much to say, but maybe you consider to put it here:

Wasps are treated with a very healthy respect here. They can appear quite often in the attics, but people are very weary when this happens. Everyone knows how they look and what they can do to us, so overall not a big problem, nothing specific to Romania.
That article I think is mistakenly put there, it's not about Romania.
The body of the wasp and the outside structure of the nest was more like in the links below...

I don't think it's paper wasp, the wasps colors are different.. In this picture is hard to see because you can't make it bigger...

I really don't know, it's not in my area. I saw wasp nests with the exterior texture like this, but they were in the ground...
