It can refer to the Carpathian Mountains, a range of mountains in Central-Eastern Europe, and aything that has to do with those mountains, like species of animals living on them.
If you're looking for the etymology of the Word, it may be derived from the name of the Carpi tribe or it may be related to the Latin and Greek Words 'carpus' and 'karpos' which, in Anatomy, refer to a cluster of bones in the wrist. Unfortunately, as is the case with a lot of Words in the Romanian language there is no agreed etymology of the Word.
Maybe people with knowledge of languages of other countries that have the Carpathian Mountains can shed some light on the etymology...
