Summary "An Account of the Principalities of Wallachia and Moldavia" by William Wilkinson is a historical account written in the early 19th century. This work delves into the geographical, political, and economic landscapes of Wallachia and Moldavia, exploring their rich history, governance, and societal structures. The author, having served as the British consul in Bucharest, offers unique insights gained from his time in the region and emphasizes its significance within the broader political context of Europe. The opening of this account begins with a preface, discussing the unique position of Wallachia and Moldavia in Europe, influenced by their historical ties to the Ottoman Empire and neighboring states. Wilkinson outlines his intentions to provide a detailed description of the two provinces, focusing on their geographical layout and historical evolution from ancient Dacian tribes to their contemporary state around the early 19th century. He sets the stage for a thorough exploration of the political and social dynamics in these principalities, hinting at the tensions between local governance and Turkish authority, as well as the vibrant culture and economic potential waiting to be unleashed.
