Abstract

This article aims to sketch some typologies of Romanian communes from the perspective of religious affiliation of the population. All data used comes from the last population and housing census (2002) from which information is available. The main new element refers to the village level approach according to the historical regions they belong to. The most heterogeneous communes are the ones from Transylvania while the ones from Oltenia, Muntenia and Moldova are on the opposite side.
