In this paper, the authors have proposed several directions that will lead to a better understanding of this great geographical unit. Among these we mention: the brief knowledge of all the elements that compose the system, but with details in the problems that needed more explanations (some not existing in other synthesis works); genetic-evolutionary correlations that ensure the understanding of processes and results as well as the unity and specificity of the Subcarpathians; highlighting some results (ideas and illustrative materials) from the research of many existing geographers only at the level of some articles or doctoral theses; a bibliography that should include as much data as possible from the information fund regarding this space.
At the same time, we wanted to offer some of the ideas and conclusions we reached and which are based on data from our own observations made in many places in the Subcarpathians, but also on the interpretation of geological and geographical materials that have seen the light of day over the years.
We consider that through the way of dealing with the problems, through the degree of deepening and illustration, this paper responds to the requirements of knowing a large number of readers. It is addressed primarily to students, not only geographers, teachers of pre-university education in current training but also for final, second degree and tenure and all those who want to know and take into account the characteristics of the Subcarpathians.

The Subcarpathians constitute by physiognomy, structure, genesis, evolution, resources, ways of exercising the increasingly diverse activities of man, etc., an extremely complex region whose knowledge involved in-depth analyzes that required numerous studies that exceeded its limits. Their very identification in the system of Romanian geographical units has aroused over the years not only interest but also disputes that started from the name (they were also called Pericarpati or Precarpati) and continued with belonging to the great surrounding orographic stages, mountains or hills. , with which they had many common features. The first, the Subcarpathians are connected by genesis, composition, structural elements, evolution and sometimes by height or morphometric features. From the hills, the Subcarpathians are approached by the overall appearance (rounded peaks separated by depressions and valley color covered by a blanket of soils and common plant formations), by favorable conditions for a popular ancient that led on the one hand to the development of a multitude of settlements that climbed from the hearth of the depressions on the slopes and sometimes to the wider bridges of the interfluves, and on the other hand to the individualization of the most varied ways of land use (from cereals, technical plants, vineyards and orchards to pastures, meadows and forests for oil and mining operations, etc.).
Hence, the belief of both geologists and geographers to place them in the Carpathians - as the youngest unit in the process of evolution, but also the conviction of many geographers to associate them with the hills. Equally important is the opinion of a third category of specialists who, based on the reflection in the landscape of the links between the multitude of factors that worked evolutionarily and spatially in drawing this geographical system, consider them as a unit of interference between the two types. So we can say, without mistake, that the Subcarpathians living in a Carpathian area have gradually acquired the features of hills through an evolution imposed by external agents between which man had a special place. So, if through the internal characteristics there are lower Carpathians through the "coat" there are hills. However, taking into account only some of the elements that define the sub-Carpathian system led some geographers to expand (often forced and poorly argued) their space by including and imposing inappropriate names for other units outside (north of Moldova, south west of Motru) and the interior of the Carpathian chain. Others more cautiously called them "units with sub-Carpathian features."
Therefore, starting from these considerations, in this paper the authors have proposed several directions that will lead to a better understanding of this great geographical unit. Among these we mention: the brief knowledge of all the elements that compose the system, but with details in the problems that needed more explanations (some not existing in other synthesis works); genetic-evolutionary correlations that ensure the understanding of processes and results as well as the unity and specificity of the Subcarpathians; highlighting some results (ideas and illustrative materials) from the research of many existing geographers only at the level of some articles or doctoral theses; a bibliography that should include as much data as possible from the information fund regarding this space.
At the same time, we wanted to offer some of the ideas and conclusions we reached and which are based on data from our own observations made in many places in the Subcarpathians, but also on the interpretation of geological and geographical materials that have seen the light of day over the years.
We consider that through the way of dealing with the problems, through the degree of deepening and illustration, this paper responds to the requirements of knowing a large number of readers. It is addressed primarily to students, not only geographers, teachers of pre-university education in current training but also for final, second degree and tenure and all those who want to know and take into account the characteristics of the Subcarpathians.
