Regions of the People's Republic of Romania

Between 1950 and 1968, a Soviet-inspired experiment organised the Romanian People's Republic into various different regions.

September 19, 1952 – Decree nr.331. By merging, the number of regions was reduced to 18.

1956 – An intermediary step in which the regions Arad and Bârlad were absorbed by their neighbours.

1960 – As of 24 December, the final step, with territory redistribution and some regions renamed. The Magyar administrative entity was renamed Regiunea Mureș-Autonomă Maghiară (Mureș Region – Magyar Autonomous), also modifying its territory. By the end, the number of regions was reduced to 16.
