Abstract

The beginning of military justice in the Romanian Principalities regard the Organic Regulations’ era, where provisions concerning military discipline of the newly formed land-militia of both historical provinces were recorded. Subsequently, military justice continued to develop during the reign of Barbu Dimitrie Stirbei and prince Alexandru Ioan Cuza’s time, whose reign also concerns, among other military reforms, the unification of military criminal legislation, by adopting a single regulation in both historical provinces. The Military Justice Code was adopted in 1873, being subsequently modified and completed in the years of 1881, 1894, 1905, 1906, 1916 and 1917, in order to keep up with social, economic and legislative changes, but especially with the ever-changing battlefield reality, in the era of turmoil that hit Europe at the end of 19th and beginning of 20th century.
