In the Autumn of 1918 we find in Banat a society deeply marked by the tragedy of the war, but also a world of divided ethnic and cultural diversity, the Banat being claimed by both Romanians and Serbs. The organization of the Romanians in the Vârşeţ area in the Autumn of 1918 is proof that there was a Romanian elite in the villages in the area, formed mostly by lawyers. Some of them stated themselves as true Romanian leaders and were involved in the Autumn events of 1918.
