July 1878 CE

Romania seeks unification with Bukovina, ceded to Austria by the Turks in 1775, upon the former country's achievement of informal independence in 1878.

It does so because Bukovina is not only the historical cradle of the Moldavian principality but also the repository of the finest examples of Romanian art and architecture, having unique painted monastic churches of the fifteenth and sixteenth centuries.

Austria, regarding Bukovina as a strategic link between Transylvania and Galicia, refuses.
