Abstract

The evolution of the Romanian hydrography, with an over 100 years of history, closely followed the Romanian Navy history. Since the Union of the Romanian Principalities until now, Romanian Navy has developed from a small river flotilla to the today Romanian Naval Forces, which includes the Romanian Maritime Hydrographic Directorate (M.H.D.). Today M.H.D. is the Romanian national authority in the field of maritime hydrography, with its operating own national law. This paper presents the centenary history of Romanian hydrography in parallel with the Romanian national history, as well as the Romanian Navy history.
