Definition:
Romanian province, part of historic Walachia, known as Greater Walachia.

In the interwar era the province was bounded by Bulgaria on the south, by the province of Dobrogea on the southeast, by the province of Moldavia on the northeast, by the province of Transylvania on the north, and by the province of Oltenia on the west.
Capital: Bucharest
The province consisted of 12 counties: Arges, Braila, Buzau, Dâmbrovita, Ialomita, Ilflov, Muscel, Olt, Prahova, Rîmnicu-Sarat, Teleorman, and Vlasca. (en-US)
