The country gained recognition of its independence in 1878. It joined the Allied Powers in World War I and acquired new territories &#8211; most notably Transylvania &#8211; following the conflict. In 1940, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/romania-google-maps\/\">Romania<\/a> allied with the Axis powers and participated in the 1941 German invasion of the USSR. Three years later, overrun by the Soviets, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.searchdrivingdirections.com\/maps\/romania-google-maps\/\">Romania<\/a> signed an armistice. The post-war Soviet occupation led to the formation of a communist &#8220;people&#8217;s republic&#8221; in 1947 and the abdication of the king. The decades-long rule of dictator Nicolae CEAUSESCU, who took power in 1965, and his Securitate police state became increasingly oppressive and draconian through the 1980s.
