Summary/Abstract: This article examines two important historical moments: the establishment of a Romanian honorary consulate in Warsaw in the late 19th century, and the assignment of a Minister plenipotentiary in the same city at the end of the First World War. Efforts to establish a Romanian consulate in Warsaw began as early as April 1896 and were completed in 1899. After the First World War, at the beginning of 1919, Romania had 13 legations abroad. Only one diplomatic mission was founded in 1919, that in Warsaw, led by an experienced diplomat Alexandru G. Florescu.
