Note: The rector, the archbishop and the great landowners’ representative of the Orthodox Consistory were nationally unaligned and pursued their own interests. However, the rector was rather leaning towards the German and the two others to the Romanian national cause. The figures for Jewish and Armenian members reflect the de facto position; they were formally included, respectively, under the German and Polish headings.
