Romania
Hi Eric,
I was only in Romania for a couple of weeks last year (July) - but it certainly appeared to be perfectly safe to wild camp.......indeed the problem wasn't safety - but (particularly at weekends) finding a spot that wasn't choc-a-bloc with everyone else doing the same thing!
I'm sad to say, you'll recognise the spots regularly used for wild camping - because the people will have left behind piles of rubbish

Altough it is a website done by a German guy, it is the one i like most about my country :
Rumänien / România
Go to the "FOTOS" on the upper middle portion of the front page.
Enjoy !
Also, i think that one of the interesting things in Romania would be the Unesco World Heritage sites :
Romania - UNESCO World Heritage Centre.
I recommand you this road map (has even all the forest and mountain road) - costs about 13-15 Euros and you can find it in the libraries :
Cartographia - expert în hărţi. Hărţi, hărţi digitale
Have a nice trip here in Romania .

To said it again, in Romania it's safe to camp and you can do it anywhere outside the cities. You can do it in the wild, besides the road or in a peasant's garden in some village. I've never had a problem anywhere. Official camping sites.. nope, I doubt you'll find any since nobody's gonna pay to stay there as long as they can camp anywhere-else for free.
