The flat, fertile Teleorman Plain defines much of Teleorman – its deep soils support grain and sunflower farming, while small towns serve a predominantly rural county. In southern Romania, the county extends to the Danube, whose course forms part of the border with Bulgaria; the Vedea is another important local river. Alexandria is the county seat and main urban centre. Teleorman also holds a place in Romania’s modern history: the Proclamation of Islaz, a foundational text of the 1848 Wallachian Revolution, was read at the Danube-side settlement of Islaz.
