Romania was an ally of the Entente and the U.S. in World War I, and was granted substantial territories with Romanian populations, notably Transylvania, Bessarabia, and Bukovina, after the war.
Romania is a country of considerable potential: rich agricultural lands; diverse energy sources (coal, oil, natural gas, hydro, and nuclear); a substantial, if aging, industrial base encompassing almost the full range of manufacturing activities; an educated, well-trained work force; and opportunities for expanded development in tourism on the Black Sea and in the mountains.

 Daily carries Transylvanian intellectuals' memorandum on "Romania of regions"   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
We consider that the basic principle of regional construction is that of allotting certain administrative and political prerogatives to the territorial entities, rather than to national or ethnic communities, because in the regional model the latter are benefiting from political and judicial guarantees that ensure their specific interests.
We believe that besides granting political, economic, and cultural attributions to the regional authorities, which the latter should exercise in concordance with the principle of subsidiarity and with the other customary norms in the European Union, a radical decentralization should be carried out also in the field of information policy.
A new regional construction requires a new political construction as well, which cannot be achieved without reforming the constitution, in concordance with the basic principles of the European constitution, which is currently being elaborated.
