Kingdom of Romania under Fascism

The Kingdom of Romania was under Fascist rule for a total of six to eight months, comprising two separate regimes headed by two different parties. First there was the National Christian Party between December 1937 and February 1938, then the Iron Guard between September 1940 and January 1941. The sole legal party from 1938 to 1940, the National Renaissance Front, was also called fascist, as was the dictator Ion Antonescu (1940–1944).
