'''Ion Dragoumis''' was a [[Greece|Greek]] diplomat and nationalistic activist.

Dragoumis was born in [[Athens]] on [[September 2]], [[1878]], the son of politician [[Stephanos Dragoumis]] who was Foreign Minister under [[Charilaos Trikoupis]]. He studied law at [[Athens University]] and, after 1899, entered the diplomatic branch of the Greek Foreign Ministry. In [[1897]], he enlisted in the Greek Army and fought in the [[Greco-Turkish War (1897)|Greco-Turkish War]].

In [[1902]], Dragoumis was made Deputy Consul in the Greek consulate at Monastir (Vitolja). In [[1903]] he became head of the Consulate at [[Serres]] and later went on to serve in Philippoupolis (Plovdiv), Pyrgos (Burgas), Alexandria and Dede-Agach ([[Alexandroupolis]]. In [[1907]] he was assigned to the Embassy in [[Constantinople]].

Ion Dragoumis became instrumental in the [[Macedonian Struggle]] assisting his brother-in-law, [[Pavlos Melas]], until the latter's death in [[1904]].

In [[1909]] the [[Goudi Revolt]] broke out and his father became Prime Minister of Greece, however, the force behind the new Prime Minister is [[Eleftherios Venizelos]].

When the [[First Balkan War]] broke out, Dragoumis travelled to [[Thessaloniki]] as an attache to Crown Prince (later King) Constantine.

In [[1915]], Dragoumis resigned from the diplomatic corps and entered Greek politics as an independent. He was elected to Parliament from [[Florina prefecture|Florina]]. In that same year he was exiled to Corsica as a result of his disagreement with [[King Constantine I]] who refused to enter [[World War I]] eventhough the Bulgarian Army occupied a large part of eastern [[Macedonia]].

On [[July 30]], [[1920]] an assassination attempt is made against Venizelos at the train station of Lyon, France. On the very next day, [[July 31]], Dragoumis is stopped by policemen loyal to Venizelos and is executed as an accomplice to the assassination attempt.
