ABSTRACT
The chapter presents several leading East Central European geographers active during the First World War and the Paris Peace Conference. The Ukrainian, Stepan Rudnyćkyj, the Pole, Eugeniusz Romer, and the Serb, Jovan Cvijić, supported the propaganda efforts of politicians with their know-how, creating works that were both engaged and fully professional. They were also appreciated by international experts in the field. Unlike amateur cartographers sketching out imaginary future borders of their fatherlands, the attachment of the three geographers to methodological correctness lent a political and at the same time scientific slant to their expert activity.
