December 1st<\/sup>, 1918 \u2013 the Great Union Day that marks the unification of Transylvania, Bessarabia, and Bukovina with the Kingdom of Romania. It is a national holiday in Romania nowadays, as well as a reason for Romanian citizens all around the globe to celebrate, including in the Republic of Moldova. Now, it is the moment to look back in the history and see what has changed since 1918.<\/p>\n

Back in 1918<\/h4>\n

At the end of World War I, the Country Council, called \u201cSfatul \u021b\u0103rii\u201d proclaimed<\/a> the independence of the Moldovan Democratic Republic (Bessarabia) and afterwards, on March 27th<\/sup>, 2018 voted for the unification with the Kingdom of Romania, formed previously only of Moldova and Wallachia regions. The Bessarabia\u2019s example was followed afterwards by other Romanian regions – Transylvania, Cri\u0219ana, Bukovina, Banat and Maramure\u0219. Therefore, the territory of newly formed Romania almost doubled. The Great Union happened at Alba Iulia, were the unification declaration was read in front of more than 100,000 Romanians.<\/p>\n\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The events evolved on the background of larger scale events such as the Bolshevik Revolution outbreak in the Russian Empire and the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. These two huge powers weren\u2019t ready to easily lose important territories that were previously under their influence. Therefore, as history shows, Romania was going to lose some of its territories: Banat was divided between Yugoslavia, Romania, and Regency Hungary in 1920, Cri\u0219ana was divided between Romania and Regency Hungary in the same year, Bessarabia (today the Republic of Moldova) and North Bukovina were occupied by the Soviet Union in 1940.<\/p>\n

Beside the political issues of gaining and losing territories, the Romanian population of that times, as described by the historians<\/a> today, was having a lot of shortcomings, intercultural and language problems, while living on a territory devastated after the World War I and regional conflicts.<\/p>\n

Almost reunification<\/h4>\n

An important turning point in the history of the Republic of Moldova and Romania was the period of 1989-1991. While people in the Moldovan SSR gathered in 1989 on the main square of the capital to request the officialization of the Romanian language and the Latin script, people in Romania were fighting in one of the most violent revolutions in the contemporary history. Both countries were heading to the elimination of the communist power. Then, the so-called \u201cBridge of flowers<\/a>\u201d in 1990 happened. Thanks to the more open political reforms of the Soviet Union and the efforts of the local organisations, for the first time in the history citizens from the left and right banks of the Prut River could cross the border without any papers. Even though it happened only for few hours, there was a great hope that things could change, and an eventual union was possible.<\/p>\n

In 1991, the Republic of Moldova gained its independence from the Soviet Union and the unification of Romania and Moldova seemed to be closer than ever. But something went wrong. Politicians didn\u2019t come to an agreement. People of both countries were, just like in 1918, not asked about what they wanted. Russia strengthened its influence on the left bank of the Dniester River, in Transnistria. The civil war began in the Republic of Moldova in 1992.<\/p>\n

The Great Union today<\/h4>\n

The Republic of Moldova and Romania are two countries that are part of the same nation. They share the same culture, language and traditions. The Republic of Moldova is the \u2018poorer sister\u2019 that always was torn apart between the great powers. The last and most important power takeover was the Soviet occupation by the Red Army in 1940. Even today, after 27 years of independence, Russia still exercises control on Moldova through the conflictual Transnistrian region, the army forces established there and the weak political forces of the government of Moldova.<\/p>\n

Some of the Moldovans still dream of the Great Union. On March 27th<\/sup>, when 100 years of the Union between Bessarabia and Romanian Kingdom were celebrated, more than 20 thousand people from the Republic of Moldova and Romania gathered<\/a> together in the city centre of Chi\u0219in\u0103u. Still, the genuine patriotism demonstrated by the Moldovan people is being craftily used by the politicians in the context of the future parliamentary elections in February 2019. For example, the Liberal Party of Moldova came up<\/a>, during the one of the Parliament meetings, with a draft law on the Declaration of Unification of the Republic of Moldova with Romania.<\/p>\n

Romania seems to have supporters of an eventual unification too. According to a poll<\/a> carried out by the Centre for Urban and Regional Sociology (CURS) in January 2018 on 1068 respondents from Romania, 27% of them consider the unification of Romania and the Republic of Moldova as important. On the other hand, a survey<\/a> executed by the Centre for Sociological Research in Moldova in March 2018, questioning 1550 persons from Moldova, shows that 35% would vote for the unification if a referendum were organized. In both cases, the numbers appear to be too inflated, taking into consideration that no concrete measures, beside the symbolical celebration of 100 years from the Great Union, are taken.<\/p>\n

In Romania, the most awaited event<\/a> today is a military parade of more than 2000 soldiers in Alba-Iulia \u2013 the city where the declaration of unification was voted in 1918. Also in Alba-Iulia, a series of other events will be held: a religious ceremony, a March of Union, a traditional costume parade, the reading of the National Assembly Resolution, as well as various concerts and spectacles. Similar manifestations are organised in Bucharest.<\/p>\n

For reinforcing the event of reaching 100 years from the Great Union, free phone calls<\/a> between Romania and the Republic of Moldova can be made on December 1st<\/sup>. The decision was taken after signing several bilateral agreements between Romania and the Republic of Moldova.<\/p>\n
