Summary/Abstract: The Russian-Lipovan population represented a basic element in the ethnic picture of the historical province of Dobrogea even after 1945. After the arrival of Soviet troops, some of the Lipovan Russians who were attracted by the Soviet propaganda, from villages such as Jurilovca, Russian Slava, Slava Cercheza, Sarichioi, Dunavățu de Jos, Old Chilia, showed a strong tendency to emigrate to the U.S.S.R. In 1949, in order to get rid of the „gentry/nobility“, considered the exploiting class in the villages, the process of forced collectivization began, which also included the Russian-Lipovan communities from Dobrogea. Nicolae Ceausescu's era was characterized by a restrictive regime over minorities, which were referred to with the phrase „cohabiting nationalities", the policy of the communist state being one of assimilation of all ethnic groups, especially of those the least numerically significant.
