Abstract:
Common Oituz is located in the west of Bacau county, belonging to the hydrographic basin area of Oituz river. The geographical location, the nature, natural monuments and anthropogenic and human resources represent a strong economic and social potential, insufficiently exploited. The study undertaken is based on the characterization of the countryside based on a number of 7 criteria. These criteria were structured in 35 subcriteria, on which 48 calculations were done, which constituted the starting point of the general description of the commune. Of the many elements of characterization the tourist potential is noted. The basin in which the commune is located is distinguished by a common natural charming landscape represented by the forest covered mountains, with varied vegetation are dominant species of fir, spruce and beech. The fauna is characterized by a diversity and a large number of species. We have noted the presence of anthropogenic elements through Neolithical and Dacian vestiges, memorial monuments and places of worship. Of the underground riches, the most important are the mineral springs, the deposits of oil and salt. The area has a high population density, especially in its inferior part. Through a strategic well-documented programme the commune may carry out a economic and social revival.
