History
After World War I, as a result of the Treaty of Trianon, Fogaras County along with most of Transylvania was transferred from the Kingdom of Hungary to Romania, Făgăraş County was created with an identical territory.

The new county divided into three administrative districts (Шаблон:Lang-ro), it neighbored Târnava-Mare County to the north, Brașov County to the east, Muscel and Argeș counties to the south, and Sibiu County to the west. In 1938, the county was disestablished and incorporated into the newly formed Ținutul Mureș, but it was re-established in 1940 after the fall of Carol II's regime. In World War II, the county was invaded and occupied by Soviet forces. As in other parts of the country in 1945, part of the Saxon population of Făgăraş County was deported to the Soviet Union, where some survivors returned after about five years.
Following the administrative and territorial reform of 1950, made after the Soviet model, all counties were abolished and regions and districts established. The territory of the county then became part of Țara Făgărașului. On 17 February 1968 the administrative and territorial divisions were returned to counties, but Făgăraș County was not re-established. The territory Țara Făgărașului was divided between the counties of Brașov and Sibiu.
