1849

After a series of serious Austrian defeats in 1849, the empire came close to the brink of collapse.

Following the Hungarian Army's surrender at Világos (now Șiria, Romania) in 1849, their revolutionary banners were taken to Russia by the Tsarist troops and were kept there both under the Tsarist and Communist systems (in 1940 the Soviet Union offered the banners to the Horthy government). After the Ausgleich of 1867, the Principality of Transylvania was once again abolished.

1897

The red dividing band was originally not part of the coat of arms. ==In popular culture== Following the publication of Emily Gerard's The Land Beyond the Forest (1888), Bram Stoker wrote his gothic horror novel Dracula in 1897, using Transylvania as a setting.

1918

Elected representatives of the ethnic Romanians from Transylvania, Banat, Crişana and Maramureş backed by the mobilization of Romanian troops, proclaimed Union with Romania on 1 December 1918.

Alba Iulia also has historical importance because at the end of World War I, representatives of the Romanian population of Transylvania gathered in Alba Iulia on 1 December 1918 to proclaim the union of Transylvania with the Kingdom of Romania.

Magyarization policies greatly contributed to this shift. The percentage of the Romanian majority has significantly increased since the declaration of the union of Transylvania with Romania after World War I in 1918.

1920

In 1920, the Treaty of Trianon established new borders, much of the proclaimed territories became part of Romania.
