In World War II Romania fought on both sides. In 1939, it declared its neutrality, while assessing its options. However, due to the Hungarian occupation of Transsylvania, and the Russian occupation of Bessarabia (Bulgaria also took a small south-eastern slice of territory), it entered the war on the Axis side. -EDIT: That was NOT the reason for Romania entering the Axis side, Russia was on the Allies side and Romania was far superior to Hungary so their influence meant nothing. The Romanians joined the Axis side because they believed that was the right side.

On 23rd August 1944, the King took the power back from Marshall Antonescu and turned arms back against the Axis and sided with the Allies. Romania was occupied by the USSR, but did not loose its independence. Instead, it became a Communist republic in 1948.
