Summary/Abstract: Entering into World War II in an alliance with Hitler, Romania led by Marshall Ion Antonescu sought, at the end of 1943 and the beginning of 1944, the best ways to break free from the Third Reich. Our study follows the manner in which the coalition of the Opposition around Iuliu Maniu succeeded, the role played by the Communists and the decisive involvement of the King in the August 23rd coup, analyzing the political preliminaries of this major act of the contemporary history of Romania.
