Ferdinand I (Ferdinand Viktor Albert Meinrad; 24 August 1865 – 20 July 1927),
nicknamed Întregitorul ("the Unifier"), was King of Romania from 10 October
1914 until his death in 1927.
Ferdinand I was the son of Leopold, Prince of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, and
Infanta Antónia of Portugal (1845–1913), daughter of Queen Maria II of
Portugal and Prince Ferdinand of Saxe-Coburg and Gotha, heir to the
Slovakian-originated Hungarian magnates of Kohary on his mother's side.[1]

Prior to 1948, the national holiday of Romania was set to be on May 10,
which had a double meaning: it was the day on which Carol I set foot on
the Romanian soil (in 1866), and it was the day on which the prince ratified
the Declaration of Independence (from the Ottoman Empire) in 1877. In
Communist Romania, the date of the national holiday was set to August 23
to mark the 1944 overthrow of the pro-fascist government of Marshal Ion
Antonescu. Every year, an annual military parade on Constitution Square in
Bucharest is held in honor of the occasion. A parade is also held in the city
of Alba Iulia.

Great Union Day (Romanian: Ziua Marii Uniri, also called
Unification Day[1]) occurring on December 1, is the national
holiday of Romania. It marks the unification of Transylvania,
Bessarabia, and Bukovina with the Romanian Kingdom in 1918.
This holiday was set after the Romanian Revolution and
commemorates the assembly of the delegates of ethnic
Romanians held in Alba Iulia, which declared the Union of
Transylvania with Romania.
