Transnistria
Transnistria, also known as Transdniestria and Pridnestrovie, officially the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic, is a fragile country that de facto seceded from 
Moldova. He uses the flag of 
Moldavian SSR and is the last surviving remnant of 
Soviet Union. Despite his flag, Transnistria is not 
communist. The symbols are only icons and are for decoration. Still, Transnistria consider himself the last stronghold of the 
Soviet Union. Not a single 
UN member recognizes Transnistria.
Transnistria's borders are heavily militarized, and not a lot of people go to Transnistria. It is mostly people leaving. Since the "border" is not internationally recognized nor is it important to outside powers, sketchy money businesses happens at the border.
History
In 1991, Transnistria declared independence from Moldova on September 5, fearing her potential unification with 
Romania. This declaration led to tensions and eventually a breakout of war between 
Moldovan forces and Transnistrian separatists, who received support from 
Russian troops. The conflict, which lasted from March to July 1992, ended with a ceasefire but did not resolve the status of Transnistria.
Since the ceasefire in 1992, Transnistria has functioned as a de facto independent state, maintaining his own government, military, and currency. However, he remains unrecognized by any United Nations member state, including 
Russia. In 2006, a referendum in Transnistria showed strong support for independence and potential future integration with Russia, although this referendum was not recognized internationally.
In 2009, Transnistria introduced a new constitution to strengthen his governance structure. The situation gained renewed attention in 2014 when Transnistria called for international recognition and unification with Russia following Russia's annexation of 
Crimea. In 2016, 
Vadim Krasnoselsky was elected president, focusing on closer ties with Russia.
Culture
Transnistria feels like the last outpost of the Soviet Union. The amount of Soviet pride in Transnistria is bonkers, there are Soviet tanks, Soviet memorials, and a giant statue of 
Lenin. The symbols of communism are everywhere. A visitor described it like "half the city was frozen in time in the Soviet Union". There are also many indivisiual military people walking around all over the place. Somes signs look Soviet styled, pretty propaganda-y, while others look like it was just built. On the main street, everything looks new. But if you took one step off of the main street, many buildings look like they are falling apart, and there are many small village-styled houses. There are emblems of communism in front of a functioning governing building.
