This short study aims to bring to the attention of the public the life and destiny of a fascinating personality of the Romanian diplomacy at the beginning of the 20th century, the military diplomat Livius Teiuşanu. During the Great War, Teiuşanu, as a military attaché, contributed to the sensitization of American public opinion to the cause of the Romanians. In the complicated context of the end of the war and peace negotiations from Paris, the acceptance by the Great Powers of the Romanian national ideals of unity and reunification was not easily achieved. Besides the great actors of history, such as I.I.C. Brătianu or Queen Maria, there were the Romanian diplomats who, through their effort, often unknown to the public opinion, helped to achieve the ideal of unity.
