Inside A Country That Doesn't Exist (Transnistria)

Описание: Welcome to Transnistria. The breakaway country, recognised internationally as part of Moldova. Often dubbed the last stronghold of the Soviet Union ( USSR ), Transnistria, located between Ukraine & Moldova, is officially a frozen conflict zone and travel here used to be very difficult.
After the breakup of the USSR, a conflict broke out between the new Moldovan state and the mainly Russian speaking majority slavic region of Transnistria ( Pridnestrovie / Приднестровье ). The conflict ended in a peace treaty in 1992 and despite officially being thought of as an autonomous region of Moldova, Transnistria & its people have, for all intents and purposes, been operating as a completely separate state ever since.
This 'country', with its own army, borders, passports, tax and legal system, has fascinated us for years and whilst being in Chisinau, we couldn't resist the opportunity to travel east to its 'capital' Tiraspol. Let's explore Transnistria together!
