In the 1920s and 1930s, Romania's political landscape was fractured, and out of it emerged one of Europe's most unusual fascist movements: the Iron Guard, or Garda de Fier. Founded by Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, it blended Orthodox Christianity, peasant mysticism, and violent nationalism into a cult-like organization that briefly threatened to take over the country. This episode focuses on the Guard's ideology, its assassination of Prime Minister Ion G. Duca in 1933, the violent rivalry with King Carol II, and the eventual crackdown that executed Codreanu in 1938. We explore the 'Legionary spirit', the role of its student organization at Iași, and how the movement's mystical rituals—like drinking from shared cups and wearing green bags of soil—created a sense of sacred brotherhood. The episode also touches on the Guard's anti-Semitism and its complex relationship with Nazi Germany, leading to the National Legionary State of 1940 under Ion Antonescu. A deep dive into a dark, fascinating chapter of Romanian history that raises questions about faith, violence, and national identity. #IronGuard #CorneliuZeleaCodreanu #GardaDeFier #LegionaryMovement #Fascism #Romania #KingCarolII #IonGDuca #IonAntonescu #OrthodoxMysticism #StudentProtests #MihailManoilescu #NationalLegionaryState #InterwarEurope #History #FexingoHistory #Totalitarianism #20thCentury Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
