L’organisation militaire en Valachie durant l’époque des Princes Phanariotes (1716-1821)

Military organization in Wallachia during the time of the Phanariot princes (1716-1821). The communist historiography period (1946-1989) had credited the idea that one of the negative consequences of the establishment of the Phanariot rulers in Wallachia and Moldavia was the abolition of the earthly armies. Today we can state as clearly as possible the fact that the Phanariot rulers significantly reduced the military numbers of the armies from the two romanian countries. The Ottoman Empire never requested this, on the contrary, it allowed, in time of war, the Phanariot lords to increase their troops. Throughout the Phanariot era, Romanian military troops played the role of " auxiliary troops" for the ottoman army.Neagoe Claudiu.
