Ținutul Mării (alternatively spelled as Marea or Mărei) was one of the ten ținuturi ("lands") of Romania, founded in 1938 after King Carol II initiated an institutional reform by modifying the 1923 Constitution and the law of territorial administration. [1] It included parts of Wallachia, central Dobruja (the southern half of Northern Dobruja) and the entire Southern Dobruja. It was named after the Black Sea, and had its capital in the city of Constanța.

Over the shield there is an argent anchor, in reference to the ports on the seaside. [3]
