history
Crai Nou was founded after the First World War (1924–1926) through the settlement of Romanian colonists from the Apuseni Mountains and the Serbian Banat in the area of the village of Rudna. Many of the first settlers could not adapt to life on the plains and moved back to the mountains. In 1954 Crai Nou was still part of the village of Rudna. Later it became an independent village.
After the Second World War, the population along the Romanian-Yugoslav border was classified as a security risk by the Romanian government after the falling out of Stalin with Tito and his exclusion from the Cominform alliance. For this reason, on June 18, 1951, he was deported to the Bărăgan steppe regardless of ethnicity. At the same time, the Romanian leadership aimed to break the resistance against the impending collectivization of agriculture . When the Bărăgan abductees returned home in 1956, the houses and farms expropriated in 1945 were returned to them. However, the field ownership was collectivized. The residents of Crai Nou were also affected by the deportation.
