University of Belgrade

The University of Belgrade is responsible for the Danube Region in Central Serbia and Western Romania. This region is geographically divided between two inner regions. Western portion is the lowest part of Pannonian Plane (or Middle Danube), with the Serbian capital of Belgrade as a focal city. The other urban settlements are rather towns; only Pančevo and Smederevo are middle-size cities. The eastern portion of the region is the Iron Gates Gorge between Romania and Serbia, which divides the Middle and Lower Danube or Pannonian and Wallachian plains. The most of urban settlements are small and scattered along this remote area. The only bigger city is Drobeta Turnu Severin in Romania, at the easternmost edge of the Iron Gates.
