The Impact of the Morphological Disparities on the Regional System in the Land of Loviştea
Journal Title: Romanian Review of Regional Studies - Year 2009, Vol 5, Issue 2
Abstract
The morphological component plays an important role in the evolution of a specific land region. The relief has greatly contributed to setting up the limits of the region, it has favourized and imposed certain paths of development and land use while playing the support role for all the other components and phenomena. The morphological component has also acted as a physical support, favourizing intense humanization (the hollow’s guard). However, we should not miss out on the housing function it had during several critical periods, the role it played in preserving and increasing the human element, all of which have greatly contributed to the apparition and permanence of the Land of Loviştea within the national territory.
