history
The first written mention of Omori nagypuszta comes from 1895.
Over the centuries different spellings of the place name appeared: Kisomor , 1913 Kisomor , 1916 Gézafalvá , 1921 Omoru Mic , Kisomor , 1925, 1932 Omorul-Mic , 1956 Omoru Mic , 1960 Roviniţa-Mică , 1972 Roviniţa Mică .
Kleinomor was founded in 1896 by German settlers as a so-called inland settlement. The first settlers came from the area around Groß-Betschkerek , mostly from Kathreinfeld and Klek in the Serbian Banat. 154 house spaces were measured for the village to be created. Later immigrants came from Rudolfsgnad , Lazarfeld , Sartscha , Pardan and Ernsthausen . After 1900 some families came from Greater St. Nicholas .
On June 4, 1920, the Banat was divided into three parts as a result of the Treaty of Trianon . The largest, eastern part, to which Kleinomor also belonged, fell to the Kingdom of Romania .
As a result of the Waffen-SS Agreement of May 12, 1943 between the Antonescu government and Hitler's Germany , all men of German origin who were conscripted into the German army. The Germans from Romania had to pay for this after Romania switched sides on August 23, 1944. Before the end of the war, in January 1945, all ethnic German women between the ages of 18 and 30 and men between the ages of 16 and 45 were deported to the Soviet Union for reconstruction work .
The Land Reform Act of March 23, 1945 , which provided for the expropriation of German farmers in Romania, deprived the rural population of their livelihoods. The expropriated land was distributed to smallholders, farm workers and colonists from other parts of the country. The collectivization of agriculture was initiated in the early 1950s .
The nationalization law of June 11, 1948 , which provided for the nationalization of all industrial and commercial enterprises, banks and insurance companies, resulted in the expropriation of all commercial enterprises.
In 1921 Klein-Omor was still a municipality seat, in 1935 it belonged to Denta, 1956 to the municipality of Rovinița Mare (German: Groß-Omor), 1966 to the municipality of Breştea and since 1972 it has belonged again to Denta.
Rovinița Mică is away from all traffic routes; there was neither a train station nor a bus until the early 1970s. This was one of the most important reasons that contributed significantly to the fact that the Kleinomor village community fell apart. In June 2010 there were only 4 dilapidated houses apart from the prayer house.
Demographics
In 1920 there were 465 inhabitants in Kleinomor, 454 of them Germans. In the 1930 census, 408 Germans were registered with a population of 98 percent. In 1940 459 people were registered as Germans. By 1980 the village community had reduced to 51 inhabited houses, two years later there were only 33. In the summer of 1983, 22 houses were still inhabited. Unlike in other German villages in the Banat, no Romanians moved into the vacant houses, so the village was left to decay. At the 1992 census, there were 14 people in Rovinița Mică, including 8 Ukrainians , 4 Romanians and 2 Hungarians . In 2002 only 4 Ukrainians, 3 Romanians and 2 Magyars were registered.
