Pannonian plain

The Pannonian plain is a large plain in central/south-eastern Europe which was left over when the prehistoric Pannonian sea dried out. The river Danube divides the plain roughly in half. Although the rain is not plentiful, it usually falls when necessary and plain is a major agricultural area; it is sometimes said that these fields could feed the whole of Europe.

The plain is divided between Croatia, Hungary, Romania and Serbia and Montenegro. The peripannonian lands, areas around this plain but not elevated like the surrounding mountains (the Alps, the Dinaric Alps, Balkan mountain and the Carpathian mountains), also spread into Slovenia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Slovakia and Austria.

Large areas of the plain that do not necessarily correspond to national borders include:
