Description

Seeker of the price of neutrality inthe near east

MUCH CONCERNED WITH THE PROBLEM OF THE READJUSTMENT OF POWER IN EUROPE: THE KING OF ROUMANIA, WHO WAS BROUGHT INTO GREAT PROMINENCE BY THE ASSERTION THAT HIS TROOPS MIGHT INVADE BULGARIA.

The strained relations between Roumania and Bulgaria, in view of the belief held by a good many that Roumanian troops might invade Bulgaria if King Ferdinand's advisers did not decide to give to Roumania that territory which she seeks as the price of her neutrality during the Balkan War, have, of course, brought into unusual prominence Charles I., King of Roumania. His Majesty was born on April 20, 1839, son of the late Prince Karl of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen. He was elected Lord of Roumania on April 20 (N.S) 1866, and entered Bucharest on the 22nd of the following month. On March 26, 1881, he was proclaimed King of Roumania°. The succession to the throne, in the event of his Majesty remaining childless, was settled upon his elder brother, Prince Leopold, who renounced his rights in favour of his son, Prince Wilhelm, who in turn renounced his rights in favour of his brother, Prince Ferdinand, the present Crown Prince, who in 1893 married Princess Marie, daughter of the Duke of Edinburgh.
