I only corrected your simplistic view on the demography of Northern Dobrogea.
No, this region was not Bulgarian, there were twice as many Romanians compared to Bulgarians before Northern Dobrogea became part of Romania. Yeah, there were many Tatars at that time in Dobrogea, but they were actually recently settled by the Ottomans. They originally came from Crimea, forced to move after the many wars between the Ottomans and the Tsarist empire (fought in the previous 100 years). After Northern Dobrogea became part of Romania 20k Turks left for Turkey and half of the Tatars were assimilated by the Romanians. Still, at that time (late 19th century) the province was super impoverished and depopulated, and only the Romanian rule made Northern Dobrogea relatively prosperous in the area - keep the things in perspective my man.
