Piteşti (/pi'teʃtʲ/) is the capital city of Argeş County (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arge%C5%9F_County), Romania (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Romania) (in the informal region of Wallachia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wallachia)), situated on the Argeş River (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arge%C5%9F_River). Situated on the A1 freeway (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A1_freeway_%28Romania%29) connecting it directly to Bucharest (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucharest) (the national capital), it is an important commercial and industrial center.
The city lies on the right bank of the Argeş, where the river meets its tributary, Râul Doamnei (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/R%C3%A2ul_Doamnei), and is an important railway junction, with a classification yard (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Classification_yard) in nearby Bălileşti (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=B%C4%83lile%C5%9Fti&action=edit). It is situated 280m above sea level
The earliest traces of human settlements in this area relate to the Paleolithic (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paleolithic). Piteşti itself was first mentioned on May 20 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_20), 1386 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1386).
Piteşti was one of the temporary residences of Wallachian Princes (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_rulers_of_Wallachia). Due to its positioning on the junction of major European routes (and its proximity to the Saxon (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transylvanian_Saxons) markets in Sibiu (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sibiu), Transylvania (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transylvania)), the city had originally developed as an important commercial center.
In the 1950s (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1950s), the city gained an ill notoriety, when the communist authorities (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Communist_Romania) used the local detention facility to subject political detainees to the infamous Reeducation, in which violence between inmates was encouraged to the point of being mandatory (see Piteşti prison (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pite%C5%9Fti_prison)). The purpose of the experiment was to psychologically destroy the capacity for outside attachment and outside loyalty, thus creating the brainwashed (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brainwashing) New Man meant to suit a Leninist (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leninism) society. The experiment was cancelled after five years. Twenty-two inmate/participants were condemned with sixteen being condemned to death for the experiments in a 1953-54 trial. A new trial in 1957 convicted certain members of the prison staff, who received light sentences. They were later pardoned
