Alexandru Averescu, Romanian military leader and politician, 24th Prime Minister of Romania (born 1859)

Alexandru Averescu was a Romanian marshal, diplomat and populist politician. A Romanian Armed Forces Commander during World War I, he served as Prime Minister of three separate cabinets. He first rose to prominence during the peasants' revolt of 1907, which he helped repress with violence. Credited with engineering the defense of Moldavia in the 1916–1917 Campaign, he built on his popularity to found and lead the successful People's Party, which he brought to power in 1920–1921, with backing from King Ferdinand I and the National Liberal Party (PNL), and with the notable participation of Constantin Argetoianu and Take Ionescu.

This is a list consisting of all the heads of government of modern and contemporary Romania, since the formal unification of the Principalities of Moldavia and Wallachia in 1862 to the present day.
