i’m stressed out of my mind, nothing’s going my way, so instead i’ve decided to ignore my problems and make a thread ranking the 41 counties of romania 
41. Teleorman
The butt of Romania?? there is nothing nice about this place, I’ve even struggled to find somewhat decent photos of this place. You’ll find only old people, alcoholics and poverty + nasty politicians here

40. Vaslui
The same as Teleorman, with even more alcohol + domestic violence. It’s arguably even worse than Teleorman, but I’ve placed Vaslui higher because their accent is funny

39. Giurgiu
Another ????? county
Boring, dirty, poor and generally not a good place to live. I couldn’t tell you more about this place

38. Botoșani
The pictures themselves are kinda pretty, but the place... uhh well not so much, again, it’s rather poor and just not a good place to live so

36. Ialomița
nothing interesting to see here, flatter than the netherlands??? the only reason it’s “””this high””” is because they have easy access to the seaside and Bucharest, oh and they have a copy of the Eiffel Tower??

35. Călărași
the sister of Ialomița, just as plain and boring, i initially thought about ranking it higher because it has slightly nicer places along the Danube, but on second thoughts, i think i’ve robbed Ialomița? at least they’re more fun

34. Vrancea
earthquake HQ of Romania. if we’re ever to be destroyed by a natural disaster, it would most likely be an earthquake from here. this is also the place where the principalities of wallachia and moldova joined together to form romania, so that’s cute

33. Galați
uhh, well.... this place is famed for the mustard of Tecuci, but not much else?
idk it has boats and stuff, it used to be cuter before communism

32. Brăila
the arch-enemy of Galați. they’re like 2 twin brothers who fight all the time. Brăila also has a superiority complex because they are technically not considered part of Moldova, but who are they kidding lol
i like the coat of arms tho

30. Satu Mare
they’re, cute, unproblematic. they’re this “down” the list only because you don’t really hear much about them, they’re just doing their thing up there, they don’t bother anyone

28. Gorj
this county is famous for a sculptor who’s from here. there are many caves opened to the public in this area. oh and they speak in a tense that we don’t use in other parts of the country (??? i have no idea how to explain this, just look up “perfect simplu” on google)

27. Dâmbovița
ok, in hindsight, i thought this place would be more interesting since it’s the former capital of wallachia, but i might have been wrong perhaps it’s slightly overrated but anyways let’s move on

26. Buzău
there is not a single HD version of the coat of arms, sending but anyway, this place is famous for its pretzels and for the mud volcanos which are (i think) unique in Europe? correct me if i’m wrong
perhaps i’ve overrated this one too, i pretend i dont see it

23. Sălaj
well tbh i think i’ve kind of overrated this one too? i suppose Sălaj is a nice place to retire or to run away and never be found again, if that’s your thing. just like Satu Mare, they’re inoffensive and unless you hit them up, they won’t make themselves noticed

22. Vâlcea

21. Mehedinți
the views here along the Danube are spectacular. not an amazing place to live, but super cool to visit. oh and here you’ll find the largest stone sculpture in Europe (if i remember correctly)

i'm halfway through the list and i thought i'd make a quick recap to show the counties i've cover so far. as you can see, i think the north of the country >>> the south of the country
entering top 20 now
20. Ilfov
well, the place is basically Bucharest’s suburb. lots of people are flocking out of the bustling city in search for a house in a more tranquil place. oh and ilfov is home to the largest wellbeing center in south-eastern europe “therme bucuresti”

17. Suceava
these guys are like the special snowflakes of Moldova. they do NOT like to be called moldovan and they will insist they live in Bucovina, a separate entity
fun fact: they started getting called the ‘Lombardy of Romania’ because of the number of COVID-19 cases

12. Maramureș
they are like the most slavic/ukrainians. i’m not convinced they are romanians. they also have a cool cemetery where they mock death and write funny poems about their lives on the funeral stones. i’m not sure they’re completely fine, but smile and wave y’all

they’re smashed right in-between their more famous neighours of Timișoara and Oradea. they’re cute, i bet they could do even better with a competent mayor. they also have a cool start fortress, but you can’t visit it because it’s an actual military base lmao
