The CIA factbook says the percapita income in Moldova for 2006 was $2,000, and I have read somewhere that Transdniestria's per capita income is around $645 per year-- the least of any Euro country. The area was and is one of the major arms manufacturing spots for the USSR and now, Russia. ZOG doesn't hold sway here!
I was voter #16 in the poll to vote that the country should be free. There is a gallery at the site with pictures of a parade. You can blow upthe pictures with the magnifying glass. This is a European country. Register and take a look. Unsure if there is a forum there or not. Will have to look around some more.

Transnistria is internationally considered part of the Republic of Moldova, although de facto control is exercised by its internationally unrecognised government which declared independence from Moldova as the Pridnestrovskaia Moldavskaia Respublica or Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic (PMR), in 1990 with Tiraspol as its declared capital.
...A list published by the European Union indicates that a majority of the leadership were not born in Transnistria[6]
These leaders are banned from traveling to the EU....Antiquity and Middle Ages
The area where Transnistria is now located has been inhabited by Indo-European tribes for millenia,
being a borderland between Dacia and Scythia. The Ancient Greek Miletians founded about 600 BC a colony named Tyras, situated on the mouth of the Dniester river (Tyras).In the early Middle Ages, the Tivertsi (Slavs)[19], and the Vlachs are mentioned as living in Transnistria. Turkic nomads such as the Petchenegs[20] and Cumans were present in 11th-13th centuries, having controlled the territory especially from the military point of view (see Cumania). Following the Mongol invasion of Europe (1241), for a period of time, the territory was under Mongol control, and later under the Crimean Khanate, one of the five successors of the Golden Horde Empire. Genoese traders opened colonies on the shore of the Dniester around 1300, having to pay tribute for that to the Tatars. From the 15th century, parts of what today consists Transnistria was briefly ceded by the Tatars to the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, when they were called Dykra. The territory was conquered by the Ottoman Empire around 1700 , becoming part of the Yedisan province. By that time the population was composed of Moldovans and Tatars...
...Nonetheless, by the beginning of the 20th century, the majority of the inhabitants was consisted of ethnic Romanians (Moldovans)
...Certain countries, including the United States [72], the United Kingdom[73] and Australia[74] announced travel warnings for its citizens traveling to Transnistria.
