Summary/Abstract: The duchy of Bukovina has experienced a great development after obtaining its autonomy. The new status and the internal organization allowed Bukovina to significantly reduce the gap in development with other provinces of the Empire. Unfortunately, the autonomy of the province of Bukovina in the Empire was a short one and the reduction of the gap in economic development was not enough to surpass other provinces. The great conflict at the beginning of the XXth century changed everything as the industry of the province was mostly destroyed and the union with Romania led to the loss of its autonomy.
