 | | In January 1995 a governing pact was signed with the anti-Semitic Romania Mare and the ex-communist Socialist Labour Party. | | | There is a two-chamber legislature, comprising a 341-member chamber of deputies (lower chamber), in which additional seats are set aside for minorities, and a 143-member senate (upper chamber). | | | A minority administration, formed under Nicolai Vacaroiu, only narrowly survived a series of no-confidence motions by the more reformist-minded opposition, and in March 1994 two far-right nationalist parties, Romania Mare and the Romanian National Unity Party, were brought into the coalition in an attempt to strengthen its position. |

| | The Soviets pressed for inclusion of Romania's heretofore negligible Communist Party in the post-war government, while non-communist political leaders were steadily eliminated from political life. | | | The fascist Iron Guard movement, exploiting a quasi-mystical nationalism, fear of communism, and resentment of alleged foreign and Jewish domination of the economy, was a key destabilizing factor, which led to the creation of a royal dictatorship in 1938 under King Carol II. | | | Romania then moved closer toward a political system dominated by two large political blocs. |

| | After the Second World War, the Communists gradually established their political hegemony within the Government: in 1947 the monarchy was deposed and the Government declared the Romanian People’s Republic. | | | Nicolae Ceausescu assumed the post of First Secretary of the Romanian Communist Party (RCP) in 1965 and held power in the country until the dramatic, bloody and largely unpredicted revolution during Christmas 1989. | | | After Ceausescu's death, the new government, under the provisional leadership of Ion Iliescu (the former Communist Central Committee Secretary) was faced with a number of acute problems: the pacification of the country; the disbanding of the Securitate; the restoration of the economy; and the need to prepare Romania for peaceful multi-party elections. |
