Romanija (Романија) is a mountain, karst plateau, and geographical region in eastern Bosnia and Herzegovina, including numerous villages and towns, such as Pale, Sokolac, Rogatica and Han Pijesak. Its highest point is Veliki Lupoglav (1,652 m).
It is located about 20 km east of Sarajevo, between the neighboring mountains of Ozren to the north and Jahorina to the south.
A football club from the neighbouring town of Pale bears its name, FK Romanija.
From November 1991, this region was expanded by the addition of the Serbian area of Birac (located around the town of Vlasenica) and placed under the presidency of Drago Blagojevic, and by 1992 it was incorporated into the Republika Srpska. Romanija-Birac
