There is a street called Bustel in the city of Luca-Napoca in Transylvania. There is a three-story red building on the street. This is the headquarters of the Romanian National Party. The current leader of the party, Ion Ra
Ziu has also noticed that the relationship between Transylvania and Romania is strengthening. As the leader of the Memorandum Movement, Ion Laziu is a person who relies on prestige and talent, but now there are too many voices within the National Party. Ion Laziu
Wu Ye has been running the party that was founded because of the memorandum movement in a bumpy way.
"Now there is a new situation. Many people from our region go to Romania to work. They claim that Romania does not oppress or discriminate against them, but rather cares about them. This makes many people yearn for Romania. Our party organizations have found it everywhere
, and it also makes it more difficult for us to strive for autonomy."
Aurel Popol, a senior member of the National Party, expressed his worries to Ion Laziu. As a minority that advocates negotiations with Austria-Hungary, Popol has always believed that relying on protests and strikes to fight for rights can only
It would make the Romanians in Lansylvania even more suppressed. So he hoped to negotiate to reduce the persecution of the Hungarians. Although most party members did not agree, Popol did so.
"What can we do, Popol? Tell our compatriots not to go to Romania. After all, we are all one nation, and Romania has helped us a lot over the years. Everyone in the party has a good impression of Romania, which will cause confusion for everyone." said the party leader.
Qiu walked to Popol and looked out the window and said comfortingly.
"But····"
"Well, Popol, in fact, our strengthened ties with Romania, on the other hand, might be putting pressure on Budapest."
After Raziu sent Popol out, he sat on a chair and pondered the way out for the National Party. There was a lot of quarrel within the National Party now because of the debate about "cooperation" and "non-cooperation", and Raziu was not one of them.
A very skillful person, he can sit on the position of party leader because he has led the memorandum. He has no solution to this problem that existed when the party was founded. He can only ease the relationship between the two parties. Now this
The method is about to fail.
Just as Raziu was struggling with internal disputes within the Romanian National Party, a decree from Budapest made the National Party angry again. The decree stated that in order to be better accountable to the Hungarian Parliament, MPs living outside Budapest would be punished
Conduct review, and if the standards are not met, they will be banned from participating in proposals and voting in parliament. Because most of the members living outside Budapest are non-Hungarians, this is seen as depriving other ethnic groups of their right to participate in politics. It also cited other issues in the Kingdom of Hungary
The National Party is also very angry about the national protests and dissatisfaction.
Two days later, Raziu, Varisi Geldish, Urel Popol and other top leaders of the National Party discussed this bill that was completely aimed at the participation of other ethnic groups in politics. “We should sue them to Vienna for their unreasonable bill.
"Urel Popol first expressed his attitude, pinning his hopes on Habsburg's benevolent remarks, which caused Varisi Geldish to retort. "The lessons we learned in the memorandum are not enough.
"Crown Prince Ferdinand will support us," Urel Popol reasoned.
The Crown Prince of Austria-Hungary only made remarks about national autonomy, which aroused dissatisfaction among the Germans and Hungarians, the ruling ethnic groups, who believed that this was a statement that would shake the foundation of the empire. For other ruled ethnic minorities, it did see hope.
It was not without reason that Popol pinned his hopes on Crown Prince Ferdinand.
“I think we still need to organize workers’ strikes and peasants’ refusal to pay taxes to mobilize us Romanians to oppose this proposal.” Varisi Geldish expressed his opinion, “If Hungary suppresses this, we alone will not be able to do it.
It can be solved." Popol was not optimistic about Gerdi's proposal at all. "Can the problem be solved by kneeling down and begging Habsburg?"
"Well, we are all trying to find a way out for the Romanians. Now we are thinking about what to do. Don't be too angry."
Raziu persuaded them to stop arguing. When the two of them heard the party leader's persuasion, they turned their heads angrily and did not look at each other. Both groups believed that they were right and did not consider the other's feelings at all. Raziu
Seeing the two gangs quarreling again, they felt a headache. They all insisted on their own opinions and could not be persuaded at all, which made Laqiu quite helpless.
Just when the National Party was unable to make a decision due to disputes at the top, the middle and lower levels of the National Party were also discussing the bill. Siriano, who was the head of the Cluj region, invited many people who were dissatisfied with the weakness of the top leaders.
Discussing this issue, they are now sitting together in a small villa on the outskirts of Cluj.
"Now these high-level officials have too many opinions and have no idea of responsibility for the suffering people who support us." Siriano, as the host, was the first to speak. "They are betraying the people." Ogo, the head of Sibiu
Ga also expressed his dissatisfaction. "I think Transylvania must unite with the Kingdom of Romania so that our people can live a life without oppression and discrimination." Lukaccio, the senior secretary of the Deva region, said,
It's a bit of a scary point of view at this time. Now most national parties have not thought about uniting with the Kingdom of Romania. Most of them think about autonomy.
"This is also a way out, at least it is better than negotiating with Budapest." Isaac, who is in charge of Bistrica's publicity, also stated the reasons for his support. Obviously, the people sitting together to discuss are all bold leaders. "Now
The culture and economy of us and the Kingdom of Romania are both strengthening, and sooner or later we will be closely inseparable. This is our best choice, but it is also the most difficult choice." Siriano expressed his opinion. Everyone heard Siriano
When thinking about the gap in national power between Austria-Hungary and Romania, everyone here expressed silence. They did not expect that Austria-Hungary would fall apart ten years later.
When the Romanian National Party talks about the Kingdom, there are also people in the Kingdom of Romania who are paying attention to them.
"Your Highness, the Nationalist Party has been in trouble recently because of Hungary's plan to ban other ethnic groups from participating in politics. The top management has been unable to come up with measures, and the middle and lower levels are also very disgusted with the incompetence of the top management. If this continues, I'm afraid they will split."
Calust told Edel about the recent news in Transylvania. Edel stood up, turned around and looked at the map of Romania behind his back. Hanging a map behind his back, which was a normal move in his previous life, is a bit unacceptable now.
But no one dared to say anything about the crown prince.
Every time he sees the current map, Edel has a sense of urgency. The Transylvania region is too important to Romania. With the Transylvania region kingdom, it can greatly increase its national power, population and resources.
It will also be an important supplement to Romania, and the defense pressure faced by Central Europe will also be greatly reduced.
"Now the National Party cannot split, we must help them. We can increase the intensity of assistance and send personnel to tell them that we hope that the Romanian people in Transylvania will unite so that they will be less humiliated by the Hungarians." Looking at it.
Edel, who was holding a map on the wall, told the captain of the guard behind him his request.
Soon Edel's opinions and assistance were sent to the National Party headquarters. Although there were no countermeasures against the Hungarian bill, at least the serious differences within the National Party were suppressed, and the two groups also knew the huge harm caused by the split. At least a few
It is unlikely that the National Party will have another internal quarrel within this year. This is enough for Edel. In ten years, this party will not be needed.
When Eder had just finished dealing with the issue of the Romanian National Party, a piece of good news from the United States made the crown prince very happy. Ford had built the Model T car.
