Summary/Abstract: In the Carpathian-Danubian-Pontic region, a series of migrators have settled between the 3rd and 13th centuries and have evolved over time, together with the main Romanian element or within the framework of some state hyperconstructions (Kingdom of Hungary, Ottoman Empire, Tsarist Empire, Austro-Hungary, etc.), or, especially, after December 1, 1918, within the Romanian state, whose current borders were established by the Paris Peace Treaty, signed on February 10, 1947 and published in the Official Gazette number 199 of August 30, 1947 (Articles 1 and 2). At present, national minorities are represented in the national parliament, either in both chambers (Senate and Chamber of Deputies), as is the case with the Hungarian minority, or with one representative in the lower chamber of the legislative forum, as is the case with the other 18 ethnic minorities.
