Early modern war was a complex phenomenon that marked not only the lives of soldiers and civilians directly involved in conflicts, but also the technology, the economy and the culture of the epoch. Current intellectual approaches to war nevertheless tend to ignore that war was also experienced as a particular series of sounds, from drums to cannons and cries. In fact, aural perception constituted in many circumstances the primary source of information about the progress of military events. This article explores the sonic nature of the Eighty Year's War through a renewed analysis of the many accounts left by Spanish soldiers and officers and other international chroniclers. More specifically, it shows that sound was a defining characteristic of armies and that the disciplining of sound constituted a fundamental development in early modern wars. Sound control was associated with a crucial rise in discipline and logistics that was developed at the time and that played a key role in the nocturnal and diurnal strategies of one of the most important conflicts of the early modern epoch. Drawing on abundant, if often overlooked, information about sound and sensory perceptions found in military treatises and war chronicles, this article analyses the whole range of sonic interaction between townsmen and soldiers, and stresses the uses of sound to produce fear, force negotiation, and express joy over victories. It also reveals how war sounds affected the pattern of communications in the Low Countries and the responses of local inhabitants to the conflicts. The increasing intensity of war sounds was not merely a by-product of firearms. War sounds were integrated in early modern culture and affected the lives of numerous people, they modified the perception of civic life and helped redefine the boundaries of religious and communal identities.

With the disintegration of the Russian Empire, Romania annexed Bessarabia, a region on its eastern border, in 1918. The integration of the new region was implemented through a centralized process in which the security forces played a significant role. This article examines the beginnings of the Romanian police in Bessarabia, the main security force in its urban areas, focusing on the development of the police and its workforce. It presents a case study of one of the 14 police stations Romania opened there, focusing on the career of a former tsarist policeman and his various attempts to join the new police force. In this way, this study contributes to a better understanding of the role law enforcement played in building a homogenized Romanian nation-state, an issue that has been poorly researched. Relying on archival documents of the tsarist and Romanian administrations and building upon studies on police history which have tried to determine the degree of centralization of the new police systems, as well as using studies on post-imperial administrations that discuss the strategies the new states applied to integrate former imperial structures, I demonstrate that Romania built the police in Bessarabia from scratch and with the army's help. It selected its police workforce centrally and regarded loyalty as a key qualification. This was achieved not by selecting employees from among former tsarist civil servants or the local population, but by importing policemen from pre-1918 Romania. The beginnings of the Romanian police in Bessarabia reveal an institution in the making, conceived mostly as a career springboard for civil servants from other parts of the country, an institution that also sought to be independent from the army troops stationed there.
