Two centuries later, the principalities were still surviving, surrounded in a sea of empires, who still desired the Romanian lands. The biggest change is that the Russian empire had replaced the Polish empire to the east. As of 1794, Poland no longer existed, itself being the victim of surrounding empires. |
