Regionalism And Regional Autonomy In Romania

Summary/Abstract: Szeklerland (in Hungarian Székelyföld) is a historical region of Transylvania, a Hungarian province given to Romania by the Versailles peace treaties after the First World War. With a population consisting of an overwhelming proportion (80 percent) of Szeklers (Székelys), it constitutes an ethnic enclave within the territory of Romania. The Szeklers are a separate ethnic group amongst the Hungarians; they arrived at the same time as the Magyars (or perhaps even a little earlier) in the Carpathian basin and settled in the centre of Transylvania.
