Moldavia[b], officially the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic, is a constituent republic of the Soviet Union in Eastern Europe, with an area of 33,851 km2 and a population of 5.912 million in 2022. Moldavia is bordered by Romania to the west and Ukraine to the north, east, and south. Kishinev is the largest city and capital, other major cities include Bălți, Tiraspol and Bendery.

Moldavia emerged as a principality in the 14th century, falling under the various vassalage of different states, including the Ottomans. In 1812 the region of Bessarabia was ceded to the Russian Empire, resulting in the region being split between Russia and what would become Romania. The independent Moldavian state united with Wallachia to form Romania, while in Bessarabia the Moldavian population declared independence from Russia in the aftermath of the 1917 revolutions and united with Romania. The Soviet Union disputed this and established the Moldavian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic within Ukraine. Later, in 1940, Romania returned Bessarabia as well as Northern Bukovina to the Soviet Union, establishing the Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic.

Moldavia is recognized as among the poorest republics of the Soviet Union.
