ROMANIA 

 

Extending inland halfway across the Balkan Peninsula and covering a large elliptical area of 237,499 square kilometers (91,699 sq. mi.), Romania occupies the greater part of the lower basin of the Danube River system and the hilly eastern regions of the middle Danube basin. 

The Black Sea Coast (245 km long) and the Danube Delta (the largest in Europe) border Romania on the South-east.
