Moldavian Subcarpathians
Moldavian Subcarpathians ( ro, Subcarpații Moldovei) is a geographic area located in the northeast of Romania, to the east of the Eastern Carpathian Mountains. The Moldavian Subcarpathians are considered to be part of the Moldavian Plateau. They are composed of: * ( ro, Culmea Pleșului) * ( ro, Depresiunea Neamțului) * ( ro, Dealul Boiștea) * ( ro, Dealurile Cornii) * ( ro, Depresiunea Cracău–Bistrița) * ( ro, Dealul Runc) * ( ro, Dealurile Bărboiu) * ( ro, Culmea Pietricica) * ( ro, Depresiunea Tazlău–Cașin) * Oușuru Hills ( ro, Dealurile Oușoru) * Zabranț Hills ( ro, Dealurile Zabranț) * Răchitaș Hills ( ro, Dealurile Răchitaș) The Moldavian Subcarpathians are separated from the rest of the Moldavian Plateau by the Siret and Moldova River valleys (north and east), and are bounded by the Curvature Subcarpathians ( ro, Subcarpații de Curbură) to the south. The highest point is Pleșului Ridge (northwest of Târgu Neamț Târgu Neamț (; german ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Eastern Carpathian Mountains
Divisions of the Carpathians are a categorization of the Carpathian mountains system. Below is a detailed overview of the major subdivisions and ranges of the Carpathian Mountains. The Carpathians are a "subsystem" of a bigger Alps-Himalaya System that stretches from western Europe all the way to southern Asia, and are further divided into "provinces" and "subprovinces". The last level of the division, i.e. the actual mountain ranges and basins, is usually classified as "units". The main divisions are shown in the map on the right. To generalize, there are three major provinces (regions): Western Carpathians, Eastern Carpathians, and the Southern Carpathians. Naming conventions The division is largely (with many exceptions) undisputed at the lowest level (except for the Ukrainian part), but various divisions are given for the higher levels, especially for the penultimate level. A geomorphological division has been used as much as the data was available; other new physio ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

The Moldavian Plateau ( ro, Podișul Moldovei) is a geographic area of the historical region of Moldavia, spanning nowadays east and northeast of Romania, most of Moldova (except the south), and most of the Chernivtsi Oblast of Ukraine (where it is known as the ''Pokuttyan-Bessarabian Upland''). Limits The Moldavian Plateau is bounded (in clockwise order): * to the west by the Eastern Carpathian Mountains ( ro, Carpații Orientali), * to north and north-east by the Podolian Plateau ( ro, Podișul Podoliei), * to the east and south east by Black Sea Lowland across which to the east stretches the Pontic Plain ( ro, Câmpia Pontică), part of the Eurasian steppe ( ro, Stepa Eurasiatică) and to the south towards the Black Sea the Bugeac Plain ( ro, Câmpia Bugeacului, Câmpia Moldovei de sud), (3,210 km2 in Moldova) * to the south by the Romanian Plain, also known as Wallachian Plain and Bărăgan Plain ( ro, Câmpia Română, Câmpia Bărăganului), and * to the southwest b ...

Sub Carpathians
The Sub Carpathians of Curvature, ''Ciucaș'', or Curvature Carpathians ( ro, Carpații de Curbură, hu, Kárpátkanyar), are located between the Trotuș and Slănic rivers in Romania. They are a range of high hills (800–900 m), with knolls and parallel ridges (''Măgura Odobești''), which separate two geological depressions. The Sub Carpathians are one of the three traditional classifications of the Eastern Carpathians in Romania: * In the north, the Carpathians of Maramureș and Bucovina (''Munții Carpaţi ai Maramureșului și Bucovinei''). * In the center, the Carpathians of Moldavia and Transylvania (''Munții Carpați Moldo-Transilvani''). * In the south, the Curvature Carpathians (''Munții Carpați de Curbură'').

Târgu Neamț
Târgu Neamț (; german: Niamtz, hu, Németvásár, he, נאמץ טרגו, la, Ante Castrum Nempch) is a town in Neamț County, Western Moldavia, Romania, on the river Neamț. It had, , a population of 20,496. Three villages are administered by the town: Blebea, Humulești, and Humuleștii Noi. History Originally a market town, hence its name (in Romanian "târg" = ''market''), it had an important role in Moldavian culture. It was first mentioned in a late-14th century document. The name '' neamț'' is a generic name of Slavic origin for the German people in the Romanian language. This has led to speculation of a German foundation of Târgu Neamț, according to which Saxon colonists crossed the Carpathians from the Bistrița area and built a commercial township. Some Romanian historians, including Bogdan Petriceicu Hasdeu consider that Târgu Neamț was probably a German settlement from the 13th century, when the Teutonic Order made incursions from Transylvania against t ...

Regions Of Europe
Europe, the westernmost portion of Eurasia—is often divided into regions and subregions based on geographical, cultural or historical factors. Since there is no universal agreement on Europe's regional composition, the placement of individual countries may vary based on criteria being used. For instance, the Balkans is a distinct geographic region within Europe but individual countries may alternatively be grouped into Southern Europe (as is often the case of Greece), in Southeastern Europe (as in the case of Bulgaria), or less commonly altogether lumped with East Central Europe. Regional affiliation of countries may also evolve over time. Malta was considered an island of North Africa for centuries but is now generally considered part of Southern Europe. The exact placement of the Caucasus has also varied since classical antiquity and is now regarded as a distinct region within or partly in Europe. Greenland is technically part of North America but has been politically and cu ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
