The Moldavian-Muntenian Carpathians are a group of mountain ranges in Romania. These ranges are considered part of the Outer Eastern Carpathians. Within Romania, however, it is traditional to divide the Eastern Romanian Carpathians (in Romanian, Munții Carpați Orientali ) into three geographical groups, instead in Outer and Inner Eastern Carpathians:
- North: Carpathians of Maramureș and Bukovina (Munții Carpați ai Maramureșului și Bucovinei) - MMB;
- Centre: Moldavian-Transylvanian Carpathians (Munții Carpați Moldo-Transilvani) - MMT;
