		Plains (below 200 meters) make up 31 percent of the land, plateaus and hills (200 to 600 meters) 41 percent, low mountains (600 to 1,000 meters) 10 percent, medium-sized mountains (1,000 to 1,500 meters) 10 percent, and high mountains (over 1,500 meters) 3 percent.
		The Maritsa with its tributaries is by far the largest draining all of the western Thracian Plain, all of the Sredna Gora, the southern slopes of the Balkan Mountains, and the northern slopes of the eastern Rhodopes.
		The remainder of the Thracian Plain and the Danubian Plateau get less than the country average; the Thracian Plain is often subject to summer droughts.

		If the Balkan Range was the cradle of the Bulgar state, then the fertile plain between the Sredna Gora and the Rhodope Mountains was the heartland of the Thracians and the magnet that drew conquerors like Philip of Macedon and the Romans, whose legacy to the present consists of the graceful ruins that embellish Plovdiv.
		The train linking Septemvri on the plain with Bansko in the Pirin Mountains serves as the basis for journeys to Velingrad, Yundola and Batak in the western Rhodopes, although buses from Plovdiv may prove to be faster then thee notoriously snail-like trains.
		Half-hourly buses speed across the dusty plain between Plovdiv and ASENOVGRAD 20km distant, a light and breezy town built around a large park Train and bus terminals lie on the northern outskirts, from where it`s a short walk through the park and across the river to a modern town square.

		The Danubian plain, lying, for the most part, outside the Peninsula, is enclosed, on the north, by the Carpathians; and on the south by the Balkans, from which the Peninsula derives its name.
		The winter, though short, is often intensely cold, especially in the Danubia1~ plain and in Thrace, the rigorous climate of which is frequently alluded to by the Latin poets.

		Although Danube Swabians are predominantly of German descent they do not come from Germany, but from the Danubian Plain in Hungary, Romania, and the former Yugoslavia.
		These models of 17th century rural planning were purposely scattered across the entire Danubian Plain so that they would be emulated by other ethnic groups.
		All the peoples of the Danubian countries borrowed from each other to create the foods which have become associated with the area.

		The Sofia-Varna route also skirts the Danubian Plain (Dunavska ravnina), sretching from the northern foothills of the Balkan Range down to the banks of the river, which forms a natural boundary with Romania.
		With the development of the railways, however, the river trade went into decline, and nowadays most of Bulgaria`s Danubian towns are quiet, provincial places, focusing their attention not on the river itself, but on the bigger cities inland.
		Like other Danubian settlements, Oescus was razed by the Huns in the fifth century, rebuilt during the reign of Justinian and destroyed again by the Avars, so it`s hardly surprising that nothing remains of the great bridge over the Danube built for the Emperor Constantine.

		The area known today as Eastern Europe was populated over a prolonged period of time, as a number of tribes migrated from the east to the Danubian plain and surrounding areas.
		The latter two were living in the heart of the Hungarian plain between the Danube and the Tisza rivers along with the Dacians, who by the end of the first century A.D. had created an organized state under their king, Decebale.

	Unasylva - Vol. 6, No. 4 - The forest products of Yugoslavia
		Yugoslavia's hardwoods have long been famous, particularly the Slavonian oak of the Danubian plain which has qualities of special value in the highest class of decorative building; the trees and logs are often of superb size and shape.
		(It is apt to be confused with that part of the Danubian plain known as Slavonia, the home of the best oak in Croatia, but not a political unit.) Slovenia is second only to Bosnia in softwood production, but the average size of its trees is smaller than those of the latter's virgin forests.
		An exception to this general picture of conditions before 1939 was the Slavonian oak and beech forests of eastern Croatia, on the Danubian plain.

	Introduction (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		In the Chinese, Central Asia and Central European sequences low field susceptibility and other magnetic parameters are enhanced in paleosols and weathered loess beds which were produced or altered during warmer and more humid climate periods, most probably due to the in situ formation of new ferrimagnetic minerals.
		Most of the Romanian low land plains are covered with loess and loess-like deposits (see map): Tisa plain in the western part, Danube plain in the south, Moldavian plain in the east and Dobrogea area in the south-east along the Black Sea coast.
		Loess thickness and properties are highly variable through these regions; maximum thickness is 50 m, located in the south-east corner of the Danubian plain, but frequently 10-15 m thick sections outcrop either due to natural erosion on the main rivers’ banks or due to some quarries.

		A smaller number also flow directly east to the Black Sea from the Thracian Plain, the lowermost reaches of the eastern Stara Planina or the south-eastern extent of the Danubian Plain.
		That is, cold air from the north rarely crosses the range leading to relatively mild winters and hot summers to the south.
		The same mechanism that prevents cold air rising over the mountains, of course, also means that when temperature inversions do form in the valleys and bowls between mountains, they can be extensive and long lasting, a phenomenon occasionally affecting the capital Sofia itself.

	Aryan Unity - Slavs are Aryans
		When the Khazars first met the opposition of Norman vikings is a moot question which must be studied in connection with the controversial antecedents of the creation of the Kievan state later in the ninth century.
		It is, therefore, against the whole background of these international relations in the Danubian region and of contemporary developments in the Balkans, that the rise and fall of the so-called Moravian Empire must be studied.
		The situation was entirely different in old Pannonia, that is in the Danubian Basin north of the Serbo-Croat settlements, where during these same years Constantine and Methodius undertook their most important mission, entrusted to them by Photius on the invitation of a new Slavic power, the so-called Moravian Empire.

	Review - 'On-line books about Macedonia'
		This book appeared in 1904, only one year after Delchev's death and it is the source of many later beliefs about Goce Delchev, including the frequently cited "I conceive the world only as a place for cultural rivalry between the nations".
		Thus the dividing line between the eastern ('ja') and the western ('e') dialects runs across the Danube plain to the south, along the rivers Iskyr and Struma/Mesta, but there are also more than one hundred isogloses (on-toj, zhezhyk-goresht, etc) roughly parallel to the e-ja boundary.
		Even more interesting is that this division extends to the north (along the river Olt), into the Romanian ethnic territory, so that in some aspects the cultures of the eastern/western Danubian regions in Bulgaria are closer to their Romanian counterparts across the Danube, than to the opposite Bulg.
