| Summary: | Following the Turkish invasion, Transylvania preserves its autonomy and therefore represents in the Magyar collective consciousness the cradle of identity, the embodiment of resistance and the reservoir from which to draw the energy of reconquest. In the 19th century the unification of national and peasant demands gave birth to the Romanian national movement. Reunited with Hungary, Transylvania becomes a constant reference of the federalist projects before and after the First World War. Then it is by virtue of the Treaty of Trianon attached to Romania and constitutes a major stake in Hungarian revisionism. The second Vienna Award in 1940 allowed part of the territory to be returned to the borders of the Kingdom of Hungary. |
