GDP for Romania gets tricky, because the exchange rate is so extreme: if you denominate GDP in dollars or euros, it is perhaps one quarter of what it is if you denominate in ability to buy goods and services locally. It's all percentages, no hard dollar/euro figures. Hard to say what to make of the refeerenced article, though. Bogdan | Talk 09:05, (UTC) Interesting, on a few counts (I'd never heard the term GDP applied except at a national level, but 'produsul intern brut' is certainly an equivalent expression). After a google I found a UK government page with GDP statistics for areas in Cornwall. And AFAIK, GDP can be calculated for a region or even a city. Joe Mabel: Removing anon contribution: 'In 2002, Bucharest's GDP per capita was around $19,000.' Simply wrong: number way to high & a city doesn't have a 'GDP'.Īctually, the number is not too high according to this article in Romanian. I don't know which has more names, the building or the hill it replaced). Well, Uranus Hill is one of the names of the hill torn down to build the Casa Republicii / Palatul Parliamentului / Casa Nebunului. Was Bucharest erected on the site of Daco-Roman 'Yourass'? Bogdan 07:52, (UTC) Anyway, it sounds like a Bart Simpson joke made up by the Britannica encyclopedists: ' Thy- anus' :-).

I couldn't find any clue about a Roman fortress near Bucharest in any other source than 1911 Britannica.
