The Ministry of World Reach in Romania

• Romania has mostly fertile, rolling plains, and is located in Europe on the lower Danube River.  It is bordered by Ukraine, Moldova, Hungary, Serbia, Bulgaria and the Black Sea.
• The capital city is Bucharest.
• Romania became a republic in 1947 and was a member of the Communist bloc until 1989-90, but former Communists still play a large role in the government.
• Romania is a land rich in agriculture, minerals and oil, but was pillaged by communism. Economic reform is slower than other former communist states.
• The population of Romania is 22,329,977. 78% of the people belong to the Orthodox church, which is not sympathetic to Christianity.
• Evangelical Christians make up 6% of the population.
• There are 453 missionaries, representing 85 agencies from 20 countries.
