Summary/Abstract: In the present study, the author intends to analyze the historiographical approaches, older or newer, regarding World War I, from a Romanian perspective. Therefore, he takes into consideration the pro-Ententist and pro-German options existing at the level of the Romanian political class during the Great War, and the way in which historiography has presented them over time, until now. The author points out that the two political options reflected, in different ways, Romania's foreign policy priorities: national security and national unity. The Romanian historiography has differentiated the two political options, from one historical stage to another, which made extremely complex the historiographical approach of the First World War as a whole, from a Romanian perspective.
