Moldova (river)
The Moldova River is a river of Romania, in the historical region of Moldavia. The river rises from the Obcine of Bukovina in Suceava County, and joins the Siret River near the city of Roman, in Neamţ County.
The river gave its name to the principality of Moldavia, whose first capital, Târgul Moldovei (now Baia), is on the Moldova River. The origin of the name of the river is disputed (see Etymology of Moldova).
