Summary/Abstract: At the end of 1918 and the beginning of 1919, Hungary was occupying a series of Romanian territories from the western part of Transylvania that were situated in the border line area. The Romanians that felt under the Hungarian domination were victims to such atrocities that are hard to imagine. As a response to the Hungarian violence, on March 18th 1919, at the initiative of the Reunion of Romanian women from Sibiu was established the Border Line Victim’s Fund. Through it the victims of the Hungarian oppressions were about to get help. The inhabitants of Sibiu County donated to the Border Line Victim’s Fund a total sum of 111.251 crowns and 46 fillers.
