Summary/Abstract: In the years between 1920 and 1925, except for 1924, comparing to 1919, „Great Romania” is not so much dealt with on Corriere della Sera. Three articles out of four, referring to 1920, speak about Little Entente. As to 1921 four articles are treated: the first one, on furnishing of French weapons to Poland and to Romania against Russia; the other three articles concerning Little Entente and its relationship with Hungary. About 1922 six articles are issued. Four of them focus on relations between Italy and Little Entente; also relationships between Great and Little Entente; moreover they clarify the enlarging of Little Entente. The last two articles deal with the consolidation of the relations between Yugoslavia and Romania thanks to marriage politics. Referring to 1923, of the two articles presented, the first one speaks about Little Entente and the second one about its extension to Poland and Greece. As to 1924, we find thirteen articles regarding a larger variety of subjects: relations between colonial countries and the latest ones; Bessarabia Question; relationships between France and Romania; between England and Romania; relations between Yugoslavia and Romania; between Russia and Romania; the Act about mines and western powers’ reaction; the conflict between Italian press and Romania; political parties in Romania; in the end, once again, Little Entente theme. The three articles of 1925 refer to the delivery of German ships to Russia; to Marghiloman’s death; to the Romanian Royal Family’s visit in Venice. Finally we find conclusions about France’s and Italy’s plans towards Danubian-Balcanic area.
