Transnistria


The unrecognised country of Transnistria is a post-Soviet "frozen conflict" zone, situated between Moldova and Ukraine in Eastern Europe. Formally known as the Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (or 'PMR'), this breakaway state proudly celebrates its Soviet heritage - statues of Lenin line the streets, while the Transnistrian flag is the only flag in the world to still feature the hammer and sickle emblem.
