Alternate Timelines

Scenarios about 'Bucharest'

Bucharest is the capital and largest city of Romania, with a history dating back to the 14th century when it was first mentioned as the residence of Wallachian prince Vlad III Dracula. The city evolved through Ottoman influence, became the capital of Romania in 1862, and experienced significant architectural and cultural transformation during the communist era under Nicolae Ceaușescu. In alternate history scenarios, Bucharest often serves as a pivotal location for divergent Eastern European political developments or as a flashpoint between competing imperial or ideological powers.
