Internet is literally considered as a practical key or essential to human development and social advancement causing massive innovation in the world. Over the years, the advent of new media has permeated most aspects of our lives, especially that of the young generation. It is against this background that this paper aims to analyses the present use of the new media by youth to gauge their usage in relation to political participation. This study is a country wide survey covering resources posted on Facebook related Romanian military sites. Practically users are split into groups that accept more or less the politically correct ideas and sometimes accept or fierce reject some kinds of historiography. Besides a survey research using questionnaire as instrument was used to obtain data paper take its data from of samples of content and information's publicly posted on this social engine. The data was analyzed descriptively and inferentially using SPSS 20.0 From the results, majority of the respondents, 89% are social media users having a social media account. A discouraging trend with regard to participation is the very low level of giving comments on general societal issues ranging from social issues, the environment to politics. The youth are more inclined to using the new media for entertainment and finding resources for surface education on hot topics. It is time to use the new media to engage with community leaders and trained historians to comment on issues related to study research data.
