Language of Love and Romance?

     French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Romanian are the five most spoken Romance Languages. What is a Romance Language?  Romance language has nothing to do with romance and love, but with the Latin base of the language or in other words based on the language of the ancient Romans.
