INTRO
This AAR, if it forsters enough interest to continue, will follow an alternate scenario whereby Romania held its own in WWI against the Central Powers and its economical losses were considerably lesser, while its military modernized. This story will not cover that part in any detail, but will deal thoroughly instead with Romania in World War II. It will be thoroughly ahistorical, and all of my writing effort will be for the war period, strictly.
In this scenario, Romania was much more trouble in WW1 and participated on Poland's side in their war with the Soviets, and emerges as a very strong nation, having successfully navigated the wall street crash.
