Bukovina Governorate
The Bukovina Governorate ( ro, Guvernământul Bucovinei) was an administrative unit of Romania during World War II. Background and history In 1775, the region of Bukovina, historically part of the Romanian principality of Moldavia, officially became part of the Austrian Habsburg monarchy after having invaded it one year earlier, which would start a strong process of Ukrainization. Years later, in 1812, Moldavia also lost Bessarabia to the Russian Empire. In 1859, Moldavia united with another Romanian principality, Wallachia, creating the first modern Romanian state. During World War I, Romania was promised the obtaining of, among other territories, Bukovina as a condition for entering the war. It ended in victory for the country, and Bukovina declared unification with Romania on 28 November 1918. The earlier incorporation of another territory, Bessarabia, into Romania, strained relations between the country and the newly-formed Soviet Union (USSR). Romania tried to defen ...
