Cover - Pridnestrovian Moldavian Republic, Country #120

My first and probably the only cover I'll ever receive from Transnistria. This is a rarity. Transnistria??? A disputed region in Eastern Europe located between Moldova and Ukraine. International recognition is controversial. Although Transnistria declared independence in 1990, the vast majority of other countries do not recognise its sovereignty.

Transnistria has its own government, parliament, military, police, postal system, and currency. Its authorities have adopted a constitution, flag, national anthem, and coat of arms.
