caption_attribution_description: English: Derivative map since Qyd's map Romania-relief.png ([1]) and Marcussep's map Mapcarpat2.png ([2]), according with Albert Demangeon &amp; Emmanuel de Martonne works ("Recherches sur l'évolution morphologique des Alpes de Transylvanie (Carpates méridionales)", Paris, Delagrave, 1906 and Géographie universelle (dir. Vidal de la Blache, Gallois), vol. IV&#160;: "Europe centrale", Paris, Armand Colin, 1930 &amp; 1931
context_page_description: The Romanian Carpathians are a section of the Carpathian Mountains, within the borders of modern Romania. The Carpathians are a "subsystem" of the Alps-Himalaya System and are further divided into "provinces" and "subprovinces".
  This is an overview of the geological subdivisions of the Romanian section of Carpathian Mountains. The broadest divisions are shown in the map on the right. The last level of the division, i.e. the actual mountain ranges and basins, is usually called "units". The lowest-level detail for those units is maintained on separate pages.
context_section_description: The Eastern Carpathians are divided into three geographical groups; the Romanian approach is shown by adding the following abbreviations to the names of units within Romania:
  MMB = Maramureș-Bukovinian Carpathians (Munții Carpați ai Maramureșului și Bucovinei) (North group)
  MMT = Moldavian-Transylvanian Carpathians (Munții Carpați Moldo-Transilvani) (Centre group)
  MC = Curvature Carpathians (Munții Carpați de Curbură) (South group)
