Timisoara

   Also found in: Dictionary/thesaurus, Encyclopedia 0.04 sec.

Timişoara

Capital of Timiş county, western Romania; population (2002) 317,700. Industries include electrical engineering, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, textiles, food processing, metal, and footwear. The revolt against the Ceauşescu regime began here in December 1989 when demonstrators prevented the arrest and deportation of a popular Protestant minister who was promoting the rights of ethnic Hungarians. This soon led to large pro-democracy rallies.
