Looking back, the political figures Gheorghe I. Brătianu and Nicolae Iorga are much in the shadow of the historians with the same names. However, in the interwar period, the two were at the forefront of public life primarily as politicians. Iorga supported Brătianu not only at the beginning of his scientific career, but also when he launched into politics. The great historian hoped his young disciple would follow his grandfather and his father as president of the National Liberal Party. The first tensions appeared after Brătianu created his own political party (June 1930) and increased in intensity after Iorga became prime minister (April 1931). Although they clashed frequently, we cannot say that an open conflict broke out between them. However, after the fall of the Iorga government, their relations remained polite, but far from the warmth of the past.
