The 1950 Divizia B was the 11th season of the second tier of the Romanian football league system.
Also this was the first season played in the spring-autumn system, a system imposed by the new leadership of the country which were in close ties with the Soviet Union.
Most of the teams have changed their names to have Soviet, communist, military or working class related inspiration.
Among the popular names used were: Partizanul (The Partisan), Flamura Roșie (The Red Flag) or Metalul (The Metal), but also some inspired directly from the Moscow teams: Dinamo, Locomotiv or Spartac being the Romanian alternatives for Dynamo, Lokomotiv and Spartak.
Socec București and Banca de Stat București merged, Socec being absorbed by Banca de Stat, which also took its place in the second league and was renamed as Spartac București.
