This attribute controls the content of the description and og:description elements. | The first of the Romanian principalities, Wallachia, was formed in 1330, gaining independence from the kingdom of Hungary. The second, Moldavia, was founded in 1350 east of the Carpathians on the Prut River valley, and became a vassal state of the kingdom of Poland. However, by 1396 Wallachia became a vassal state of the Ottoman Empire; Moldavia became a vassal state in 1512. After the Turks conquered Hungary in 1526, Transylvania enjoyed a brief period of autonomy, becoming a Turkish vassal in 1541. In 1552 the Banat also fell under Ottoman rule. Although these principalities paid annual tribute to the Ottoman sultan, Transylvania, Moldavia, and Wallachia retained their autonomous status under Turkish sovereignty. The Austro-Hungarians drove the Turks from Transylvania in 1606 and from the Banat in 1701. Austria received the Bukovina area of Moldavia in 1775 for assistance in a war against Russia. |
