ROMANIA & CRAIOVA
ABOUT ROMANIARomania is situated in the southeastern part of Central Europe and shares borders with Hungary to the northwest, Yugoslavia to the southwest, Bulgaria to the south, the Black Sea and Ukraine to the southeast and to the north and the Republic of Moldova to the east. Incorporating over 22 million people, Romania is the second largest country in the area, after Poland.
Romania's territory features splendid mountains, beautiful rolling hills, fertile plains and numerous rivers and lakes. About a third of the country consists of the Carpathian Mountains (also known as the Transylvanian Alps). Forests cover over one quarter of the country and the fauna is one of the richest in Europe including bears, deer, lynx, chamois and wolves. Another third is hills and plateaus, rich with orchards and vineyards. The final third is a fertile plain, largely devoted to agriculture. The legendary Danube River ends its eight-country journey through eight European countries at the Black Sea by forming one of the biggest and most interesting wetlands in the world, the Danube Delta.
