Summary/Abstract: In this study, we wish to determine to what extent Vasile Mangra’s political career depended on the education received in his family environment. We would also like to reveal the most important figures in the entire network of friends and acquaintances that parliament member Vasile Mangra acquired during his life, namely, Ioan Slavici and Eugen Brote. Based on published sources, this paper presents lesser-known details about the political life of the Romanians living in Transylvania and Hungary in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.
