History
History
Romania's first official statistics body was the Central Office for Administrative Statistics (Oficiul Central de Statistică Administrativă), established on July 12, 1859, under the reign of Alexandru Ioan Cuza. The organisation, one of the first national statistics organisations in Europe, conducted its first public census between 1859 and 1860. The Romanian national statistics organisation was known under various names throughout the country's history, as can be seen in the table below: • English name — Romanian name — Period • Central Office for Administrative Statistics — Oficiul Central de Statistică Administrativă — 1859–1892 • State Directorate for General Statistics — Direcția de Statistică Generală a Statului — 1892–1925 • State Institute for General Statistics — Institutul de Statistica Generală a Statului — 1925–1936 • Central Institute of Statistics — Institutul Central de Statistică — 1936–1951 • Central Directorate of Statistics — Direcția Centrală de Statistică — 1951–1989 • National Commission for Statistics — Comisia Națională pentru Statistică — 1989–1998 • National Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies — Institutul Național de Statistică și Studii Economice — 1998–2001 • National Institute of Statistics — Institutul Național de Statistică — 2001–present
