Focşani in County Vrancea

Focşani is the capital city of Vrancea County in Romania on the shores the Milcov river. It has a population (as of 2002) of 103,219.

Focşani lies at a point of convergence for tectonic geologic faults, which raises the risk of earthquakes in the vicinity. It is one of the most popular wine-producing regions in Romania, Odobeşti being just to the NW.

Weisse von Fokshan is a famous local wine, and the vicinity is rich in minerals such as iron, copper, coal, and petroleum.

Focşani's location on the Milcov river which divided Wallachia and Moldavia is depicted on its coat of arms, which represents the heraldic emblems of both principalities and a handshake.

History

From the Rest Romania Website at

==HISTORY===================================

This website is a general tourist guide, designed to help English-speaking tourists understand Romania, and as such, provides historical information for the interest of our traveller readers. History can be a contentious issue, and we welcome input where readers think clarification or correction is advisable. Please e-mail us here if you have questions or comments about anything in this history section.

Early Focşani History

Focşani Town Centre

As a town of Moldavia, Focşani developed as an important trade centre between Russia and Southeastern Europe. A congress between Imperial Russian and Ottoman diplomats took place near the city in 1772.

Nearby the town, the Ottomans suffered a severe defeat at the hands of the allied forces of the Habsburg Monarchy under Prince Frederick Josias of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld and Imperial Russia under Alexander Suvorov in 1789 (see Battle of Focşani).

In the 1850s (after the Crimean War), Focşani grew in importance as the center of activities in favor of the union between Wallachia and Moldavia (the Danubian Principalities), leading to the double election of Alexander John Cuza in Iaşi and Bucharest.

In 1917, during the Romanian Campaign, Focşani and Galaţi were part of a line of fortifications known as the Siret Line. An armistice was signed in the city on December 9, 1917, between the Kingdom of Romania and the Central Powers during World War I.

In 1944, during World War II, Focşani was supposed to be part of the fortified Focşani-Nămoloasa-Galaţi line, where 9 elite divisions were preparing to resist the Soviet Red Army's advance after the Battle of Târgul Frumos. However, due to the turn of events on August 23, 1944 (see Romania during World War II), this never materialized.
