Corneliu Zelea Codreanu was a Romanian politician and founder of the Iron Guard, a far-right paramilitary organization. Born on September 13, 1899, in Ploiești, Romania, he died on November 30, 1938.

His assassination marked the end of the Iron Guard's influence, but its ideology had a lasting impact on Romanian society. more

“Democracy destroys the unity of the Rumanian nation, dividing it among political parties, making Rumanians hate one another, and thus exposing a divided people to the united congregation of Jewish power at a difficult time in the nation's history. This argument alone is so persuasive as to warrant the discarding of democracy in favor of anything that would ensure our unity - or life itself. For disunity means death.”
