Regat Germans
Regat Germans or Old Kingdom Germans are an ethnic German group of the eastern and southern parts of Romania. The Regat is land that was part of Romania before the First World War. This territory includes Moldavia, Dobruja, Muntenia, Oltenia and the Hertza region. The Regat Germans, like all other German groups in Romania, are represented in politics by the Democratic Forum of Germans in Romania.
