He was elected Prince of the Romanian United Principalities on 20 April 1866 after the overthrow of Alexandru Ioan Cuza by a palace coup d'etat. In May 1877 he proclaimed Romania an independent and sovereign nation. The defeat of the Ottoman Empire 1878 in the Russo-Turkish War secured Romanian independence and he was proclaimed King on 26 March O.S. 14 March 1881. He was the first ruler of the Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen dynasty which ruled the country until the proclamation of a socialist republic in 1947. During his reign Carol I personally led Romanian troops during the Russo-Turkish War and assumed command of the Russo/Romanian army during the siege of Plevna. The country achieved internationally recognized independence via the Treaty of Berlin 1878 and acquired Southern Dobruja from Bulgaria in 1913. Domestic political life was organized around the rival Liberal and Conservative parties. During Carol's reign Romania's industry and infrastructure were much improved but the country still had an agrarian-focused economy and the situation of the peasantry failed to improve leading to a major revolt bloodily suppressed by the authorities. He married Princess Elisabeth of Wied in Neuwied on 15 November 1869. They only had one daughter Maria who died at the age of three. Carol never produced a male heir leaving his elder brother Leopold next in line to the throne. In October 1880 Leopold renounced his right of succession in favour of his son William who in turn surrendered his claim six years later in favour of his younger brother the future king Ferdinand.

24791'Sinaie i.e. Sinaia Romania ce 1. Mai 1882'. Not only an unusually intimate letter for a member of royalty to write but also an interesting communication from a poet to her mentor. On Ulbach’s death the Pall Mall Gazette 20 April 1889 referred to Elisabeth as ‘the poet-Queen of Roumania’ stating that it was to Ulbach whom ‘she owed the publication of the “Pensées d’une Reine†Some years ago Ulbach was travelling in Roumania and was presented to the Queen at her summer residence at Sinaia.’ Perusal of the queen’s album of her writing in French ‘so delighted Ulbach that he induced the Queen to allow a selection to be made from its contents and published at Paris under the title of “Pensees d’une Reine.â€â€™ The present item is 8pp landscape 12mo. On two bifoliums of grey paper each with a large printed facsimile of the queen’s signature ‘Elisabeth’ at top left of the first page. In good condition lightly aged. A long letter of closely-written text in French addressed to ‘Mon cher Monsieur Ulbach’ and signed ‘Elisabeth’. Having received ‘un petit chef-d’oeuvre’ from him she begins with a mannered apology for her silence declaring that she will never forget ‘toute la peine que vous vous êtes donnée pour moi!’ ‘Monsieur Urechia’ has asked her to write a book ‘pour nos écoles’ and she has found ‘rien de mieux à faire que d’inventer des légendes sur les montagnes de Sinaia’. She has been ‘horriblement bouleversée’ by the news of the death of ‘la soeur de ma cousine’ i.e. Princess Marie of Waldeck and Pyrmont 1857-1882 ‘morte en couches hier matin. Elle était belle comme le jour respirant la vie et la joie’. A few weeks before she had thought that her own life was at an end ‘et voilà que ma petite soeur doit s’enaller à ma place dans la plénitude de sa force et de sa jeunesse!’ She continues: ‘Vous savez que dès que je n’ai plus été aveuglée par les douleurs je me suis plongée dans vos livres! - Mes favoris restent toujours Moline Fernel et le Comte Orphée!’ She praises his writing at some length and in particular his understanding of women. ‘Ah! quels beaux enfants on pourrait avoir si l’on savait certaines choses ou si l’on y pensait! Mais nous sommes des ignorants et des étourdis et nous compromettons l’avenir pour nous étormer ensuite.’ She wishes he could visit Sinaia again so that she could have a talk with him: ‘Je vous trouverai un endroit pour écrire où rien ne vous dérangera! Et nous causerons!’ After more praise for his writing she ends: ‘Je vous remercie encore et encore pour tout ce que vous avez fait pour moi!’ See Image. 'Sinaie, [i.e. Sinaia, Romania] ce 1. Mai 1882'. unknown
