Summary/Abstract: The paper herein aims to analyse the state and nation, as these two concepts were reflected in the legionary and communist discourse on the Romanian political scene in the 20th century. More precisely, we shall make a comparison between the discourse of the best known legionnaire of his epoch, in the person of Corneliu Zelea Codreanu, and that of the best known communist leader and President of the Socialist Republic of Romania (1974-1989), Nicolae Ceaușescu.
