Шаблон:History of Romania

Elections for 680 of the 1,228 delegates to the Great National Assembly of Alba Iulia took place in Transylvania and neighbouring regions of the Hungarian Democratic Republic inhabited by Romanians between November 20 and December 1, 1918. Called by the Шаблон:Ill, the elections were open exclusively to ethnic Romanians, with women excluded from the process in most of the places. Voting procedure was highly irregular, ranging from universal vote direct vote to indirect elections and even acclamation by local self-proclaimed "Romanian national councils".

History

  • November 13–15, 1918 - Negotiations are held in Arad between the Hungarian government of Károlyi Mihály and the Шаблон:Ill, without reaching any agreement.

  • November 1918 - During a 12-day interval, elections are held for the Great National Assembly. Its 1,228 members are elected 5 each from the electoral districts established in 1910 (600 members in total), and 628 to represent different social, professional and cultural organizations (clergy, teachers' unions, military).

  • On December 1, 1918 (November 18 Old Style), the Great National Assembly, consisting of 1,228 elected representatives of the Romanians in Transylvania, Banat, Crișana and Maramureș, convened in Alba Iulia (Gyulafehérvár) and decreed (by unanimous vote) the Union of Transylvania with Romania
