The former Soviet Republic of Moldova has been independent since 1991, although tensions between pro-Romanians and the former Soviet region of Transnistria erupted into civil war in 1992. An uneasy truce remains with Transnistria which is now a self-proclaimed republic, unrecognised by any other countries except North Korea, and still occupied by the Russian 14th Army.
