Transdniestria is a breakaway region located in Eastern Europe, bordering Moldova to the west and Ukraine to the east. The region declared independence from Moldova in 1990, leading to a brief armed conflict that ended in a ceasefire in 1992. Since then, Transdniestria has operated as a self-proclaimed republic, though it is not internationally recognized.
Transdniestria's population is predominantly made up of ethnic Russians and Ukrainians, with a significant minority of Moldovans. The region's official languages are Russian, Ukrainian, and Moldovan, reflecting its diverse population.
