Summary/Abstract: The problem of setting up a naval base for the Romanian navy became more important after 1913. If there was less discussion about the opportunity to build it, there were many opinions about choosing the place where it would be located. For the first time in Romania's military history, the issue of locating an important military base was brought up for public discussion. Newspapers at the time published dozens of articles on the subject. The subject was discussed with passion not only by military specialists but also by university professors or journalists, and in Constanţa public meetings were also organized to debate various opinions. The Romanian society of the time showed a keen interest in the problems of the navy. This article presents the most important opinions expressed then on this subject, emphasizing their diversity.
