It is historically part of a greater Moldavia, the main part of which was an independent principality in the 14th cent. and came under Ottoman Turkish rule in the 16th cent. It became a highly fortified Turkish border region and was a frequent target in Russo-Turkish wars. East Moldavia passed to Russia in 1791. Russia acquired further Moldavian territory in 1793 and especially in 1812, when the Russians received all of Bessarabia (the name for the area of Moldavia between the Prut and Dniester rivers). The rest of Moldavia remained with the Turks and later passed to Romania, which seized Bessarabia in 1918. In 1924, the USSR, refusing to sanction the seizure, established the Moldavian ASSR in Ukraine, with Balta and then (1929) Tiraspol as the capital. Romania was forced to cede Bessarabia to the USSR in 1940. The predominantly Ukrainian districts in the south and around Khotin in the north were incorporated into Ukraine, as were parts of the Moldavian ASSR; the rest was merged with what remained of the Moldavian ASSR and made a constituent republic (the Moldavian SSR). Taken by Romania in 1941, the republic was reconquered by the USSR in 1944. In June, 1990, the Moldavian SSR adopted a measure calling for greater sovereignty within the USSR. In Aug., 1991, Moldova, which is the Romanian name of the region, was declared an independent republic; Mircea Snegur was elected president, and it reluctantly joined the Russian-dominated

home search help worldguide ... Postcards Moldova History The area was reoccupied by Romanian forces between 1941 and 1944, during which time thousands of Bessarabian Jews were deported to Auschwitz. In 1944 the Romanians were forced to relinquish their hold on the area, and the Soviet authorities once again took control. The consequent Sovietisation of Moldavia included the deportation of over 25,000 ethnic Moldavians to Siberia and Kazakstan, the closing of Jewish synagogues, the outlawing of religious ceremonies and the imposition of the Cyrillic script on the Latin-based Romanian alphabet. There was also all the usual monument-building, statue-constructing, road-naming, city square-dedicating hi-jinks that comes with trying to impose an unnatural order on a conquered race of people. With the collapse of communism in the mid-1980s and Gorbachev's policies of glasnost and perestroika , the nationalist Moldovan Popular Front finally got a forum to air their views. Several years of reform and consultation followed: in 1989 the Latin alphabet was reintroduced as the official written language; in 1990 the Moldovan flag was instated and a declaration of Moldovan sovereignty was passed; and finally in 1991 Moldova declared its full independence, with communist Mircea Snegur as its first democratically elected president. Independence has not solved all of Moldova's problems and has, in fact, created some new ones. The Slavic minorities in Transdniestr are keen to retain their cultural and social ties with Russia, while in the south the Turkish-speaking Gagauz minority are worried about possible reunification with Romania. As soon as Moldova cut the umbilical cord and declared itself a republic, the Transdniestr authorities seceded from the republic and reiterated their loyalty to Mother Russia. Matters were further complicated when the Gagauz started muttering about their own breakaway republic in the southeast. The brand new Moldovan republic was shrinking by the minute. Eventually the Gagauz relented after promises of greater regional autonomy and representation in government, but the Transdniestr republic has remained obstinate in its refusal to join Moldova.

Moldova Time and Date Moldova History Back to Top During the second half of the fifteenth century, all of southeastern Europe came under increasing pressure from the Ottoman Empire, and despite significant military victories by Stephen the Great (Stefan cel Mare, 1457-1504), Moldova succumbed to Ottoman power in 1512 and was a tributary state of the empire for the next 300 years. In addition to paying tribute to the Ottoman Empire and later acceding to the selection of local rulers by Ottoman authorities, Moldova suffered repeated invasions by Turks, Crimean Tatars, and Russians. In 1792 the Treaty of Iasi forced the Ottoman Empire to cede all of its holdings in what is now Transnistria to the Russian Empire. An expanded Bessarabia was annexed by, and incorporated into, the Russian Empire following the Russo-Turkish War of 1806- 12 according to the terms of the Treaty of Bucharest of 1812. Moldovan territory west of the Prut River was united with Walachia. And in the same year, Alexandru Ioan Cuza was elected prince of Walachia and the part of Moldova that lay west of the Prut River, laying the foundations of modern Romania. These two regions were united in 1861. Albania Maps Andorra Maps Armenia Maps Austria Maps ...

Wineries Management Awards Moldova ... Useful Links History Grape cultivation and wine production in Moldova have a very long history. The imprints of Vitis teutonica vine leaves near the Naslavcia village in the north of Moldova, prove that grapes have grown here approximately 6 to 25 million years ago. The size of the grape seed imprints found near the Varvarovca village which date to 2800 BC, prove that, at that time, the grapes were already cultivated. The grape-growing and winemaking in the area between the Nistru and Prut rivers, which began 4000-5000 years ago, had periods of rises and falls but has survived through all the changing social and economic formations. At the end of the 3rd century B.C., links between the local population and the Greeks were established. Only after the formation of the Moldovan feudal state in the 14th century did the grape-growing begin to develop. It flourished in the 15th century during the kingdom of Stefan cel Mare, who was promoting the import of planting material of high quality varieties from other countries and the improvement of the quality of the wine. In the 300 years under the Turkish Ottoman Empire, Moldova saw a big decline in grape-growing, since winemaking was forbidden by law.
