Hungary invades Romania in the 1990s

[futurist]

What if, for whatever reason, Hungary had a hyper-nationalistic government in the 1990s and would have thus decided to invade Romania in order to get Northern Transylvania back?

For what it's worth, I expect a Romanian victory in this war as well as a NATO military intervention (possibly limited to air strikes against Hungary, but still very significant nonetheless) to help Romania fight against Hungary. I certainly don't think that NATO would be willing to tolerate Hungarian aggression after the end of the Cold War even if Romania isn't a NATO member yet.

Also, I expect Romania to implement regime change in Hungary in this scenario after it kicks Hungary out of its territory. Think of a repeat of 1919, if you will.

How does Hungary get a far-right regime in the 1990s? A more likely scenario would be Romania electing Gheorghe Funar and having him antagonize the Hungarian minority inside Romania.

OK, let's go with your scenario here instead.

Best of all, this scenario happened in Zhirinovsky's Russian Empire.
