Description of Romania

Romania is located in southeastern Europe and borders with Hungary, Yugoslavia, Bulgaria, Ukraine and Moldova. Romania occupies an area of 237,500 square kilometers, which is greater than combined areas of Bulgaria and Hungary. All of Romania, with the exception of the Black Sea coast, is part of the Danube basin. 2850 km long Danube passes through nine countries and finishes the way by its Delta in Romania. To the south of the Delta is the Black Sea coast, to the south-west - the Danube lowland. The bow-shaped Carpathian Mountains with mountain pastures on the top and dense forests at the bottom occupy the third of the country. Another third is covered by hills and plateaus, abundant orchards and vineyards. A fertile plain, where cereals, vegetables, herbs and other crops are cultivated, occupies the rest of the country.

Romania is a republic country. The head of the country is the president, the head of the government - the prime minister. Administratively, the country is divided into districts (counties), cities and communes. Hotels, motels, visiting homes and campgrounds are located throughout Romania.
