Ion Antonescu: Encyclopedia II - Petre Dumitrescu - Initial successes

However, on March 25, 1941, he was made commander of the Third Army, a post which he would hold for the duration of the war.

The Eleventh Army covered Dumitrescu's left flank while he advanced towards the Bug River. In September of that year, Dumitrescu repulsed a Soviet attempt to cross the Dniestr in the east, behind the Eleventh Army. Dumitrescu then led the Third Army to t ...

Ion Antonescu: Encyclopedia II - Nicolae Ceauşescu - A rough sketch of Ceauşism

While the term Ceauşism became widely used inside Romania, usually as a pejorative, it never achieved status in academia. This feature can be explained taking in view the largely crude and syncretic character of the dogma. Ceauşescu attempted the inclusion of his views in mainstream Marxist theory, to which he added his belief in a "multilaterally developed socialist society" as a necessary stage between the Marxist concepts of Socialist and Communist societies (a critical view reveals that the main reason for the interval is ...

Ion Antonescu: Encyclopedia II - Romania during World War II - The war begins

On April 13, 1939, France and Britain had pledged to ensure the independence of Romania, but negotiations on a similar Soviet guarantee collapsed when Romania refused to allow the Red Army to cross its frontiers. On August 23, 1939 Nazi Germany and the Soviet Union signed the Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact, which stipulated, among other things, the Soviet "interest" in Bessarabia, along with the explicit lack of any such German interest in the area. Eight days later, Nazi Germany invaded Poland. Romania officially remained neutral, granting refuge ...

Ion Antonescu: Encyclopedia II - Piteşti - History

The earliest traces of human settlements in this area relate to the Paleolithic. Piteşti itself was first mentioned on May 20, 1386. Piteşti was one of the temporary residences of Wallachian rulers. Due to its positioning on the junction of important routes, the town used to be renowed as an important commercial center. In the 1950s, the town gained an ill notoriety, when the communist authorities used the local detention facility to subject political detainees to the infamous Reeducation, in which violence between inm ...

Ion Antonescu: Encyclopedia II - Romania - History

Main article: History of Romania In 513 BC, south of the Danube, the tribal confederation of the Getae were defeated by Darius during his campaign against the Scythians (Herodotus IV.93). Over half a millennium later, the Getae (also named Daci by Romans) were defeated by the Roman Empire under Emperor Trajan in two campaigns stretching from 101 to 106, and the core of their kingdom was turned into the Roman province of Dacia. The Gothic and Carpic campaigns in the Balkans during 238–256 forced the Roman Empire to reorganize a new Roman province of Dacia south of Dan ...

Ion Antonescu: Encyclopedia II - Porajmos - Aryan Racial Purity

In the thousand years that nomadic Roma tribes wandered through Europe, they were subject to persecution and humiliation; they were stigmatized as habitual criminals, social misfits, and vagabonds. Given the Nazi predilection for "racial purity," it would seem inevitable that the Roma would be among their first victims. Nevertheless, in the earliest days of the Third Reich, the Gypsies posed a problem for Hitler's racial ideologues. The Gypsy language Romany is one of the Indo-Aryan languages, originating in northern India. Nazi anthropologi ...

Ion Antonescu: Encyclopedia II - Petru Groza - As Premier

Within days of becoming premier, Groza delivered his first major success. On March 10, 1945, the Soviet Union agreed to hand over Northern Transylvania, over 17,400 square miles of territory formerly held by Romania from 1918 to 1940. Groza promised that the rights of each ethnic group within the newly acquired territory would be protected (mainly, as a reference to Hungarians), while Joseph Stalin declared that the previous government under Rădescu had permitted such a large degree of sabotage and terrorism in the region that it would have ...

Ion Antonescu: Encyclopedia II - Fascism - Italian Fascism

Fascism - Early history. Main article: Fascio Etymologically, the use of the word Fascism in modern Italian political history stretches back to the 1890s in the form of fasci, which were radical left-wing political factions that proliferated in the decades before World War I. One of the first of these groups were the Fasci Siciliani who were part of the first movement that consisted of the Italian working-class peasants that made real progress. The Fasci were revolutionary socialists that were led by Giuseppe De Felice Giuffrida. See also:

Ion Antonescu: Encyclopedia II - Communist Romania - The Ceauşescu regime

Gheorghiu-Dej died in 1965 in unclear circumstances (his death apparently occurred when he was in Moscow for medical treatment) and, after the inevitable power struggle, was succeeded by the previously obscure Nicolae Ceauşescu. Where Gheorghiu-Dej had hewed to a Stalinist line while the Soviet Union was in a reformist period, Ceauşescu initially appeared to be a reformist, precisely as the Soviet Union w ...

Gheorghe Gheorghiu-Dej - Under Soviet directives. Soviet influence in Romania under Joseph Stalin nonetheless favored Gheorghiu-Dej, largely seen as a local leader with strong Stalinist principles. The economical influence of the Soviet Union were highlighted by the creation of SovRom companies, which directed Romania's commercial exchanges towards unprofitable markets.
