Romania (Europe)

Introduction ::Romania

Background:

The principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia - for centuries under

the suzerainty of the Turkish Ottoman Empire - secured their

autonomy in 1856; they united in 1859 and a few years later

adopted the new name of Romania. The country gained recognition

of its independence in 1878. It joined the Allied Powers in World

War I and acquired new territories - most notably Transylvania -

following the conflict. In 1940, Romania allied with the Axis

powers and participated in the 1941 German invasion of the USSR.

Three years later, overrun by the Soviets, Romania signed an

armistice. The post-war Soviet occupation led to the formation of a

Communist "people's republic" in 1947 and the abdication of the

king. The decades-long rule of dictator Nicolae CEAUSESCU, who

took power in 1965, and his Securitate police state became

increasingly oppressive and draconian through the 1980s.

CEAUSESCU was overthrown and executed in late 1989. Former

Communists dominated the government until 1996 when they

were swept from power. Romania joined NATO in 2004 and the EU in 2007.
