The
Moldova geography consists of the climate, topography and environmental concerns of the place. Moldova is a small country in the south-eastern part of Europe. Moldova is a landlocked country.
It is surrounded by Romania in the west and the east, south and north are bordered by Ukraine. There are two major rivers that play a pivotal role in
Moldova geography. They are called Nistru and Prut. Nistru flows through the eastern part of the country and forms a natural boundary with Ukraine in the north-east end of the country. This river is called Dnister in Ukraine and Dnestr in Russian. The river Prut, on the other hand, forms a natural boundary with Romania in the eastern part of the country.
The local land area of the country is of 13,067 square miles. There is a hilly plain in the northern part of the country. The entire area is covered with thick forest. In most parts of Moldova we find a particular type of soil called "Chernozem". But in the northern part of the country, clay textured soil is found.
