>Loses war
>Nearly triple in size

This is actually pretty crazy. No I'm not a "seething Hungarian", I am Swedish, but reading ww1 this caught my attention.
Interesting how Wilsonian principles were rigorously enforced in some cases during peace negotiations but not in others. Why was Romania so overwhelmingly favored in the best possible way?
What's even more interesting is that not even Hitler was fully interested in reversing it. He only gave Hungary a 'corridor' of the original land.

>Why was Romania so overwhelmingly favored in the best possible way?
Because the lands were mostly Romanian and it wouldn't make sense otherwise.

>What's even more interesting is that not even Hitler was fully interested in reversing it.
Because Hitler was interested in keeping Romania as a future base for Barbarossa and punishing it too much would make that difficult.
>He only gave Hungary a 'corridor' of the original land.
And even that was not majority Hungarian.

>loses war
It's more like they lost one war and won the next.

They lost WW1, signed a separate peace treaty with the CP, then entered a new war. The war of Austria-Hungary successor states should be counted as a separate war really, it was largely fought by new states after the armistice of 1918.

You cannot even say that Romania broke a peace treaty since Austria-Hungary stopped existing. They beat the Hungarian Red Army and got all the way to Budapest, they won fair and square.

Duchy of Bukovina now split between Romania and Ukraine.

>Why was Romania so overwhelmingly favored in the best possible way?
That was mainly because the Entente was scared of the Soviets, and wanted to beef up states bordering them as much as possible. They hoped that an alliance of these nations could keep the reds out. Hungary just went commie a year before, so they were never counted as a possible part of this cordon, so they were weakened to make the other countries stronger.

Of course, the plan never worked because the other countries (especially Poland) also had disputes with each other, so the alliance couldn't function.

Honestly, Germany should turn to communism. Breaking away entente bullshit treaty.
>>
reality has a romanian bias.
>>
>>18373985
Two reasons I can think of
>Romanians were very francophile and pro-west (funnily enough this lasted even during WW2 when Romanian officers kept pissing their German allies by refusing to speak in German and only communicating in French)
and their neighbours were either pro-Germany or pro-Russia and Romanians to their credit were not prone to genociding all other ethnic groups in their lebensraum unlike most other balkanoids
>Romania entered WW1 in what can only be described as a leroy jenkins tier suicide mission, their plan was to rush into Transylvania and try to push as fast as possible to kill Austria-Hungary or otherwise (which is what actually ended up happening) they'd be stuck fighting all 4 Central Powers on the longest frontline of the war with a shitty outdated army and the Russians as their only ally in the region (and then Russia killed itself, Romania only surrendered after that despite losing 2/3 of their territory at the time because they did eventually manage to stop the Central Powers and stall the entire front), they got some compensation for the sheer audacity I guess
>>
>>18373985
>No I'm not a "seething Hungarian"
you sure sound like one though kek
romania not only won the second balkan war and ww1, but had to be contained and rolled back from hungary in 1919
area nearly doubled not tripled

>Romania, seeking security and support from Austria-Hungary, signed a secret treaty with the Empire of Germany and the Austro-Hungarian Empire. This 1883 guaranteed alliance was a response to the fear of Panslavism and the influence of Russia.
Those gypsy are worse backstabber alongside shitalian.

>>18376145
>bad gypsy you have to die to defend germoid interests
>defensive alliance does not apply to offensive wars? backstabbing gypsy
>hey gypsies we always hated you and now we conquered all your friends, so give your land to vatniks, slavshits and mongoloids, btw all your oil is now ours and you are our bitch, so you have to be canon fodder for us
>whats that gypsy? we are overexposed and you saw vatniks building up a massive offensive? pff leave the military stuff to actual humans
>you retarded gyspy we lost because of you.. what do you mean you're switching sides? I KNEW YOU ARE ALL THIEVES AND SUBHUMAN TRASH ALL ALONG
Germans and Hungarians are retarded

>new angloid-amerimutts order instead Europva
Roma far more retarded

>>18373985
They presented themselves as useful to the great powers, and saw the weakness of their neighbours. That's all.
>>18373995
"Romanian" identity was wholly invented by the state for the explicit purpose of population control. It still works.
>>18374004
>What are successor states Radu
More like they realized that nobody cares about upholding laws.
>>
>>18378089
>Romanians were invented by the French to punish Hungarians and Slavs
Even if this wasn't schizo babble it wouldn't be a bad thing, if anything it's based, I wish Romanians were invented purely to cause mongoloid seething

You cannot read, but that is to be expected of you.
>>
a couple reasons
the entente needed new fronts and they bribed the romanians with promise of land fully knowing theyll get demolished
after the war was over, they were very eager and ready for action, unlike the ex central powers or the entente so they occupied territories left right and center
what do you do with such an ally? you just had a gigantic war, nobody wants to fight any longer, and in the bumfuck nowhere a bunch of balkan ppl cant stfu up about their rightful ancient claims, you know nothing about the region so in the end you just let them have it

shitler didnt want to reverse it for the reason romanian oil was needed and they were an ally for the upcoming invasion of the USSR, so pissing them off too much was out of the question

Hilter was pro-vampire cult. He have good taste on gothic subculture.
>>
>>18373985
The entente, particularly France, wanted to make nations like Romania and Czechoslovakia strong and fortified to help deter and contain any possible resurgence of Germany, Austria, Hungary or the new USSR.
>>
>>18378794
France losing in 1940 now karma
>>
>>18378293
I can read but with every post you make you keep making Romanians sound more and more based.
Am I meant to laugh at the pagan Mad Max village military parade?

What the West doesn't know is that 90% of those men have nothing to do with civilisation and rational culture.
In a post apocalyptic world these men would make Crossed look like a bed time story for toddlers.

Bukovina, Moldavia, and Bessarabia will never be part of "Romania/Byzantium" (Wallachian larpers)
>>
Romanians producing extreme amounts of seething by virtue of merely existing will always be funny.
Is it because they're a reminder that Romans used to own the Balkans and it wasn't always steppenig/ slavshit land?
Or is it just because they're in the way for panslavic and "greater" Hungary retards?
I genuinely don't think any other nation in Europe gets dogpiled as much, even Albanians get less hate.
>>
>>18379990
What are you talking about? Half of Bukovina is already part of Romania and the same goes for all of western Moldova. Bessarabia and the northern part of Bukovina is all they're missing.(Budjak too but I doubt anyone cares about that ethnic melting pot)
