Riassunto

The Republic of Moldova's European lineage reaches back long before its 14th-century accession to statehood. In the 15th century, the nation managed to avoid being conquered by Islam, and - albeit as an intermittent vassal after 1485 - it maintained its autonomy and was never provincialized by the Ottoman Empire. After this period, however, Moldova would not be so fortunate as it altered between Russian, Romanian, and Soviet control until finally gaining its independence from the Soviet Union in 1991.
This second edition of Historical Dictionary of Moldova traces the history of this small but densely populated country with its chronology, introduction, appendixes, maps, bibliography, and hundreds of cross-referenced dictionary entries on important political, economic, social, and cultural aspects.
