よくある質問
The Iron Guard was a radical movement in interwar Romania that originated as the Legion of the Archangel Michael in 1927. Emerging from a climate of intense nationalism and religious mysticism, it was characterized by student radicalism and significant political violence. Unlike other European fascist movements of the 1920s, the Iron Guard was deeply rooted in a specific kind of religious fervor and the unique social soil of Greater Romania following World War I.
Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, often referred to by his followers as "The Captain," was the central figure and leader of the Iron Guard. Born Corneliu Zelinski in 1899, he was raised by a nationalist father and influenced by radical antisemitic professors. Codreanu was viewed more as a religious prophet than a traditional politician, maintaining a powerful aura that drove the movement's growth from its beginnings at the University of Iasi into a major political force.
The Legion of the Archangel Michael was founded in 1927 during a period of intense political and social transition in interwar Europe. It grew out of student radicalism at the University of Iasi, fueled by the ideas of Corneliu Zelea Codreanu and his associates. The movement was grounded in the concept of Greater Romania and combined deep religious mysticism with hardcore nationalist ideologies, setting the stage for the violent political landscape of the 1920s and 1930s.
