Elections for 680 of the 1,228 delegates to the Great National Assembly of Alba Iulia took place in Transylvania and neighbouring regions of the Hungarian Democratic Republic inhabited by Romanians between November 20 and December 1, 1918. Called by the National Romanian Central Council , the elections were open exclusively to ethnic Romanians, with women excluded from the process in most of the places. Voting procedure was highly irregular, ranging from universal vote direct vote to indirect elections and even acclamation by local self-proclaimed "Romanian national councils".
History
[edit]- November 13–15, 1918 - Negotiations are held in Arad between the Hungarian government of Károlyi Mihály and the National Romanian Central Council , without reaching any agreement. News about the armistice of Belgrade reach the Romanian (Transylvanian) delegation. The National Romanian Central Council retreats from negotiations and decides to hold elections and convey for December 1 [O.S. November 18] 1918 the Great National Assembly, and to hand power to the latter.
- November 1918 - During a 12-day interval, elections are held for the Great National Assembly. Its 1,228 members are elected 5 each from the electoral districts established in 1910 (600 members in total), and 628 to represent different social, professional and cultural organizations (clergy, teachers' unions, military).

Well, that’s interesting to know that Psilotum nudum are known as whisk ferns. Psilotum nudum is the commoner species of the two. While the P. flaccidum is a rare species and is found in the tropical islands. Both the species are usually epiphytic in habit and grow upon tree ferns. These species may also be terrestrial and grow in humus or in the crevices of the rocks.
