Regiunea Constanța (Constanța Region) was one of the 1950 new administrative Soviet-style divisions of the People's Republic of Romania.[1]
The seat of the region was Constanța, and at first, its territory comprised an area a bit larger than the nowadays Constanța County. In 1952, it included the Fetești raion of the dissolved Ialomița region, that was later (1960) incorporated into the București region.
