|
Turks, Russians, Bulgarians, Croats, Tartars, Czechs, Greeks, Jews, Armenians, |
|
Polish and Albanians. The Carpathians form a mountainous arc in the center of |
|
the country, bordered on both sides by hills and plateau and finally the great |
|
plains of the outer rim. Forests cover over a quarter of the country and the fauna |
|
is one of the richest in Europe including wolves, bears, deer, lynx and chamois. |
|
The mighty Danube forms the southern boundary of the country terminating in |
|
the Delta on the Black Sea, a heaven for countless native and migratory birds. |

|
Republic of Moldavia and the Ukraine. |
