Ion I. C. Brătianu
Ion I.C. (Ionel) Brătianu was an engineer, politician, the
President of the National Liberal Party, and an honorary
member of the Romanian Academy from 1923.
When he took over party leadership, Brătianu outlined his
foreign policy objectives, including Romania’s detachment
from the Triple Alliance and its orientation towards the
Entente. It was, in his opinion, the only measure meant to
achieve the unification of all Romanians in one state. As
head of the government at the end of the First World War,
he was the decisive force in the creation and international
recognition of united Romania.
After the Resolution of Union of Transylvania with Romania,
on December 1, 1918, a new government, led by Brătianu,
was soon established. Ministers hailing from all Romanian
historical provinces became part of the cabinet for the first
time in Romanian history. This government ratified the act
of union of Transylvania and Bukovina with Romania
