This index presents historical and modern wars and conflicts taking place in the present territory of, or relating to, Romania. The principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia - for centuries under the suzerainty of the Ottoman Empire - secured their autonomy in 1856; they were de facto linked in 1859 and formally united in 1862 under the new name of Romania. Romania was recognized as independent in 1878.
