Moldavian-Muntenian Carpathians

The Moldavian-Muntenian Carpathians (in Romanian, Munţii Carpaţi ai Moldo-Munteniei) are a group of mountain ranges in Romania.

These ranges are considered part of the Outer Eastern Carpathians. Within Romania, however, it's traditional to divide the Eastern Carpathians in Romanian territory into three geographical groups (north, center, south), instead in Outer and Inner Eastern Carpathians. The Romanian categorization is indicated below.
