		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.

		In the foreign arena, Romania faced Hungarian, Soviet, and Bulgarian demands for restoration of territories lost under the treaties; Romania geared its interwar network of alliances toward maintaining its territorial integrity.

		Romania’s economic and social backwardness was explained as the martyrdom of a nation, which sacrificed itself so that the West could build cathedrals, roads and industries.
		The Greater Romania form of speech became a drug meant to medicate the growing shortcomings of everyday life by identifying a well-defined perpetrator: international capital which was striving to buy Romania for nothing; the Hungarians who longed to retake Transylvania; the new politicians, already corrupted, who made easy money by selling their offices.
		Greater Romania took over from the Legionary Movement the idea of the everlasting culpability of the political class, who are forever incompetent and corrupt, and therefore must be replaced with representatives of the Party.

		In the 2000 campaign, Tudor made the famous declaration that Romania "can only be ruled with a machine gun." Toma subsequently spent a good deal of time explaining that his boss meant the machine gun should remain slung on the shoulder as a deterrent.
		But Romania loves a strong leader, and Vlad Tepes, the 15th-century prince better known as Dracula, was a real law-and-order man. Despite his gruesome habit of impaling his enemies on long stakes, Vlad is fondly remembered in Romania today for his crime-fighting and his promotion of Romania's independence from hostile neighbors.

	The Nationalism Project: Book review of Cultural Politics in Greater Romania
		In 1918, “Greater Romania” was formed by the Great Union of the Old Kingdom (Wallachia and Moldova), Transylvania, Bukovina and Bessarabia.
		Cultural Politics in Greater Romania is an excellent text on Romanian ethnic relations in the 1920s; while more consideration is given to the Romanian discourse on those problems, in this case it is a strength since Livezeanu is able to focus on that position and give excellent archival support.
		For scholars of nationalism, her suggestion in the introduction that Gerschenkron's theories of state intervention in industrialization can be applied to nationalism - “the state can substitute cultural policies for the structures of industrial society which Gellner stipulates as a prerequisite for the development of nationalism”; (6) - is intriguing.
