Muntenia ((:munˈteni.a), also known in English as Greater Wallachia) is a historical province of Romania, usually considered Wallachia-proper (''Muntenia'', ''Țara Românească'', and the seldom used ''Valahia'' are synonyms in Romanian). It is situated between the Danube (south and east), the Carpathian Mountains (the Transylvanian Alps branch) and Moldavia (both north), and the Olt River to the west. The latter river is the border between Muntenia and Oltenia (or ''Lesser Wallachia''). Part of the traditional border between Wallachia/Muntenia and Moldavia was formed by the rivers Milcov and Siret. ==Geography== Muntenia includes ten counties entirely: *Brăila *Buzău *Călărași *Argeș *Dâmbovița *Giurgiu *Ialomița *Ilfov *Prahova *Teleorman and parts of three others: *Vrancea (southern part) *Vâlcea (eastern part) *Olt (eastern part) Romania's capital city, Bucharest, is situated in Muntenia. Other important cities are: *Brăila *Buzău *Pitești *Ploiești *Târgoviște 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Muntenia」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
