Iancu Flondor

Iancu Flondor (3 August 1865 – 19 October 1924) was a Romanian politician who advocated Bukovina's union with the Kingdom of Romania.

He was born in the town of Storozhynets (Romanian: Storojineṭ) in Northern Bukovina (now in Ukraine).

[1] Married to Elena de Zotta, he fathered three sons: Șerban (1900–1971), Neagoe (1901–1952), and Mircea (1908–1928).

Under those circumstances, the Romanian government in Iași, wishing to protect the population, decided to send to Bukovina the 8th Division under the command of General Iacob Zadik, who entered Cernăuți, on 9 November 1918.

On 15/28 November 1918, the debates of General Congress of Bukovina opened at the Metropolitan Palace in Cernăuți and decided: "The unconditional and eternal union of Bukovina — within its old boundaries up to the rivers Ceremuș, Colacin, and Dniester — to the Kingdom of Romania".
