Caracal, Romania : ウィキペディア英語版 | Caracal, Romania
Caracal ((:kaˈrakal)) is a city in Olt county, Romania, situated in the historic region of Oltenia, on the plains between the lower reaches of the Jiu and Olt rivers. The region's plains are well known for their agricultural specialty in cultivating grains and over the centuries, Caracal has been the trading center for the region's agricultural output. Caracal has a population of approximately 31,000 and is the second largest city in the region. ==Etymology== While 19th century historians thought that the name of Caracal is linked to Roman Emperor Caracalla, the current accepted etymology is that city's name is derived from the Cuman language ''kara kale'' meaning "Black fortress"〔I. A. Candrea, ''Elemente de toponimie cu privire specială la toponimia Olteniei'', 1932-1933, Facultatea de litere și Filosofie din București, p. 24〕 (''kara'', meaning "black", and ''kal'', either from the Turkish ''kale'', or the Arabic ''qal'at'', both meaning fortress).
