Hey there,

I noticed a few things about the current Romanian setup, showcased during last week's developer diary:
- Lehliu Gara, a Romanian town which is actually to the east of Bucharest, is in the location of Silistre/Silistra. An Ottoman town in Bulgaria (also featured in other Paradox strategy games).
- Slatina wasn't really a big factor in the 19th century (its industries also being mid/late 20th century). I hope Craiova is there on the map, as that was an actual center of Oltenia. I'm aware it was a county-capital, but its size was negligible for a very long time.
- The Vicky 2 version of Wallachia/Moldavia is quite alright, I hope they base things off that one. (even though Silistre (Bulgaria) is a Danube-port in reality, instead of a Black Sea one. Same mistake as in EU4).
- The first three letters of Onesti are barely visible in Moldavia, but it's there. This was but a village back in the 19th century, and would stay one for long until mid 20th century. Vicky 2's map should again be the solution. Bacau is the capital of that region.
- All of the Transylvanian names are contemporary Romanian, instead of Austrian (German).

Please, for the love of everything, don't pull a Eu4 2.0 with this map. There are sources aplenty of all things cities and administrative divisions of the 19th and 20th century, not just of Europe. This should be a lot easier to do than the 1444 starting date of EU4.

Why they cant alling the border to he river, wtf
 
I was under the impression that the town is supposed to be Ruse/Ruschuk due to how close it is to Bucharest. But looking at that state border and old map, you are right. That is not good. Silistra should be nowhere near Bucharest; but rather right in that corner that borders both Calarasi and Constanta.
