    1. For anyone interested, I made a video on the Royal Aviation during the Great War, which is part of a mini-series about the beginnings of the Romanian Aviation. I think following the next episode (or next series - this one has 2 more episodes planned), I will beging creating content only in English.

       

    2. Unfortunately, I couldn't find an exact answer to your question, but I recommend you the book "Artileria Română în date și  imagini"/ "The Romanian Artillery in datas and images". I can give you a link to the book (I think it's only in Romanian, so you must translate it, but is a very good source of information):

    3. Indeed, the Romanian army got a bad time in 1916. The soldiers had the morale and determination, but were ill equiped and poor trained. They recoveredd in the winter between 1916-1917 thanks to the French Military Mission under Henri Mathias Berthelot, and rezisted preety well against the german offensives from august 1917, as I already mentioned in "Revival of the Romanian Army 1917" and "Battle if Oituz". Unfortunately for them, Russia, their only allied that offered direct support by sending units to the Romanian front, got out from the war in november 1917. This situation forced Romania, now fighting alone against all the Centrals Powers, to sign an armistice, later the Buftea Peace on 9th of March 1918, which was not cosidered legit by king Ferdinand, who didn't sign it. Later, on 10th of November 1918, seeing that the fate of the cinflict is on the side of the Entente, Romania remobilised its army and re-joined the war.
