Abstract:
The Transylvanian Plain occupies the central part of the Transylvanian Depression with its territory of over 3900 km2, its geographical and economic components being placed radial-concentrically: the river systems, biotic and climatic elements, and the energy material flux are centrifugal. Consequently, the Transylvanian Plain is characterized by an evident central isolation, which corresponds to the tendencies of national categorization – an area of maximal poverty or an underprivileged area. We add specific biotic and climatic elements to suggest this current scientific idea.
