The physical and historical map which contains Wallachia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Romania and the regions from south of the Danube. The title is presented in the upper left part, inside a border, in a cartouche adorned with acanthus leaves and a panoply of arms and flags, having a shield with a crescent moon in the middle. It features polychromatic insertions in watercolour Inscription in lower left part: "Per Geratdum Mercatorem/Guiljelmus Blaeu excudebat". Atlas pages, with small repairs. On the back side, a text in Latin that describes the existence of Wallachia and Moldavia, a mention of several localities and the fact that the poet Ovidius was exiled in Tomis. Between 1632 and 1654, the ruler of Wallachia was Matei Basarab, who, just like Vasile Lupu, in Moldavia, introduces the written law code on the territory of Wallachia. The two collections of laws printed by Matei Basarab were "The Govora Codex" from 1640 and "Matei Basarab's Codex" from 1652. The enforcement of these written laws was the first step to the modernization of Wallachia.
