Roumania Enters War Against Austria Hungary
The Roumanian declaration against Austria Hungary ends neutral hopes and reshapes the war. It strengthens the Allied cause as 800 000 Roumanian troops plus 300 000 reservists enter the conflict, threatening Bulgaria and isolating the Central Powers while Italy joins against Germany. The moral and strategic impact on Europe is considered decisive, with some hope for a swift end if German resolve weakens.
