    I suggest changing the title to "the history of the republic of moldova" because you cant talk about moldovan history without talking about alexandru ioan cuza and the union of 1859. It is misleading. Someone who is not familiar with the history of this region would think that the republic of moldova is the continuator of medieval moldova

    If you’re moldovan and you’re reading this I would like to politely ask what does the majority of moldova’s population think about a reunification with romania? I don’t want to be offensive and sound dumb but since you guys were part of romania and speak romanian why aren’t you reunited again with them? It’s there a big linguistic or cultural difference that makes you culturally and ethnically different from romanians in general?

    I'm not Moldovan but east German. the huge difference in strength of economy, especially given that romania is already struggling with poverty and corruption itself, as well as some cultural differences that arose during soviet occupation make reunification difficult. Your opinion on it would likely depend on whether you are willing to pay the price, on how much you value unification ideologically in and of itself.

    The problem in this case isn't the people refusing to unite I'd say quite the opposite most actively seek unification and the few who do oppose it accept it's basically inevitable The only real problem the economic difference between Moldova and Romania if the unification happened it would be a big hit for Romania and while worth it in the long run it would take a bit once both nation grow a bit things should be pretty set in stone I also want to mention that if a serious conflict in Ukraine does begin unification is imminent

    To address the two main questions (the one about the majority and the other about us not being reunited again with them : 1) From my personal experience I would say that about 60% are seeking reunification meanwhile the 40% doesn't (most of them being native Russian language speakers that see Romania as their "Fri-enemies") 2) Well, if you should know a thing or two about the Russians then that thing is that they have an obsssnsion for russification, more specifically, russifying people who aren't the same culture or don't speak the same language as them. This process happened both between 1812-1918 (under the rule of Imperial Russia) but most notably and influentally (BY FAR) between 1940-1991. In this period the language of the Moldovan SSR was on paper "the Moldovan one" which was basically Romanian but with Cyrillic characters. HOWEVER, in that timespan the russian language was spoken by over 90% of our population. Basically, to put it short (since the answer is very complex) **SOVIET UNION. RUSSIAN LANGUAGE. NO ROMANIAN LITTERATURE. PROPAGANDA AND THE CREATION OF THE IDEA THAT MOLDOVANS ARE SEPERATE FROM ROMANIANS.** That is why to this day were not unified with Romania and it's sure depressing as it sounds

    If you wonder why Moldova is a independent nation well the quickest way I can summarize it When Moldova gained its independence from the ussr they decided to stay independent rather than be part of Romania Bc since it was a part of the ussr it became very Russiafied (no offense to Moldovans) And the last reason is bc there were already non Moldovan (Slavs) living there and didn’t want reunification so Moldova stayed independent (Note this comment is not supposed to offend anyone I did research on why Moldova is independent)

    what da hell dude if you did some real research you would have found out that there is no moldovan language, it's written in Moldova's constitution that its official language is romanian, and even though there is moldovan citizenship Moldova and Romania are so close one to eachother especially because we are the same people, we share the same traditions, language and at some point we even got united. The fact that we are a separate nation and that we speak a different language from Romanian was hardly promoted by the soviets between 1944-1991 so yeah, things aren't as simple as they look, especially when it comes to Moldova
