The term "Romaioiaboo" is a combination of "Romaioi" and "-aboo," used to describe someone who has an intense and often obsessive interest in Byzantine culture. It is a portmanteau of "Romaioi," the Greek word for the Byzantine people, and the suffix "-aboo," which is used to describe someone who is a super-fan of a particular subject or culture. A Romaioiaboo would likely be extremely knowledgeable about Byzantine history, art, architecture, literature, and other aspects of the civilization, and would be highly enthusiastic about sharing their knowledge and passion with others.
Maria is such a Romaioiaboo that she spends all her free time reading about Byzantine history, listening to Byzantine music, and learning to speak Medieval Greek.
