Summary/Abstract: The modern foundations of the establishment and development of the Land Forces can be placed in the second half of the 19th century, following the revolutionary process in 1848, the creation of the modern Romanian state through the Union of 1859 and the fulfilment of the military policy of Alexandru Ioan Cuza. The evolution of the Land Forces is closely related to the evolution of the Romanian society throughout time, to the transformations occurred within the Romanian Armed Forces in various stages of its existence. The Land Forces command has been exerted by structures that have different names: command, directorate or staff. The need for transformation has led to major developments in this field. In the mid-90s, the Tanks and Infantry Command was reorganised in the Land Forces Command, with subordinated directorates and weapon inspectorates.
