Ferdinand I of Romania Ferdinand I (24 August 1865 – 20 July 1927)

1. Ferdinand I of Romania Ferdinand I (24 August 1865 – 20 July 1927), nicknamed “the Unifier”, was King of
Romania from 10 October 1914 until his death in 1927. Despite the setbacks after the entry into war, when Dobruja
and Wallachia were occupied by the Central Powers, Romania fought in 1917 and stopped the German advance into
Moldavia. When the Bolsheviks sued for peace in 1918, Romania was surrounded by the Central Powers and forced
to conclude the Treaty of Bucharest, 1918. However, Ferdinand refused to sign the treaty. When the Allied forces
advanced on the Thessaloniki front, they knocked Bulgaria out of the war, and Ferdinand ordered the re-mobilization
of the Romanian Army. Romania re-entered the war on the side of the Triple Entente. The outcome of Romania’s war
effort was the union of Bessarabia, Bukovina and Transylvania with the Kingdom of Romania in 1918. Ferdinand
became the ruler of a greatly enlarged Romanian state in 1918–1920 following the Entente's victory over the Central
Powers, a war between the Kingdom of Romania and the Hungarian Soviet Republic, and the civil war in Russia. He
was crowned King of Romania in a spectacular ceremony on 15 October 1922 at the courtyard of the newly opened
"Coronation Cathedral" in the historic princely seat of Alba Iulia, in Transylvania. A new period of Romanian history
began on the day of the Union of Transylvania with Romania (Great Union Day).
