TRANSNISTRIA 
The separatist region of Trans-Dniester (Pridnestrovie) - a narrow strip of land between the Dniester river and the Ukrainian border - broke away from Moldova after a brief war in 1992.

The international community does not recognise its self-declared statehood, and the de facto government, which remains in a tense stand-off with Moldova, is economically, politically and militarily supported by Russia.
Capital: Tiraspol
