'''Transylvania''' ({{lang-de|Siebenbürgen}}) is a Central European region located in the eastern half of the [[Carpathian Mountains|Carpathian Basin]], today in central [[Romania]]. Bounded on the east and south by the Carpathian mountain range, historic Transylvania extended in the west to the Apuseni Mountains; however, since 1919, Transylvania also encompasses, in the north-west, parts of the historical regions of Crişana, Maramureş and Partium, and in the west, eastern Banat.

Transylvania is an ancient land. After 106 AD the [[Roman Empire]] conquered [[Romania|Dacia]] and its wealth (gold and salt) was systematically exploited. After the Romans' withdrew in 271 AD, it was subject to various temporary influences and migration waves: [[Visigoths]], Carpians, [[Huns]], and Gepids ([[Slavs]]). Before the 10th century [[Hungarians|Magyar tribes]] slowly subdued Transylvania, which became part of the [[Kingdom of Hungary]] (11th–16th century). As a political entity, Transylvania is mentioned from the 11th century (after the Hungarian conquest) as a province of the [[Kingdom of Hungary]]. After the battle of Mohács it became an autonomous [[principality]] under the [[Ottoman Empire]], before returning to Hungary<ref name=Britannica/>, ruled by the [[Habsburg Monarchy|Habsburgs]] in 1711, and subsequently part of [[Austria-Hungary]] in 1867.

Following the defeat of Austria-Hungary in [[The Great War]] Hungary was brutally dismembered by the victorious [[Plutocracy|plutocratic]] western liberal Allies who awarded Transylvania to the [[Kingdom of Romania]] in the [[Treaty of Trianon]] despite Romania changing sides during the war, as well as their complete defeat.<ref name=Britannica>{{cite encyclopedia|title=Transylvania|url=http://britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/603323/Transylvania|encyclopedia=[[Encyclopædia Britannica]]|publisher=Encyclopædia Britannica, Inc.|year=2008|accessdate=2008-08-01}}</ref>

Outside Romania, it is strongly associated with [[Bram Stoker]]'s novel ''[[Dracula]]'',<ref>[http://www.afn.org/~vampires/tsd.html Transylvania Society of Dracula Information]</ref><ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20131208064145/http://www.nytimes.com/1993/08/22/travel/travel-advisory-lure-of-dracula-in-transylvania.htmlTravel Advisory Lure of Dracula In Transylvania - New York Times]</ref><ref>[http://www.icromania.com/infoTransylvania.asp Romania Transylvania]</ref> while within Romania and Hungary the region is known for the scenic beauty of its [[Carpathians|Carpathian]] landscape and its rich history.
