The Romanian expression România Mare (Great or Greater Romania) refers to the Romanian state in the interwar period and to the territory Romania covered at the time. At that time, Romania achieved its greatest territorial extent, almost 300,000 km 2 or 120,000 sq mi [ 266 ] ), including all of the historic Romanian lands.
