Book made in Gagauzia. The title of the book reads:”Trajectories of twenty years of nation building experience of Gagauzia”. The book is made by the Scientific Research Center Of Gagauzia.
Gagauzia is an autonomous territorial unit of Moldova. Its autonomy is intended for the local Gagauz people, a Turkic-speaking, primarily Orthodox Christian ethnic group.
In 1990, Gagauzia declared itself independent from Moldova as the Gagauz Republic during the dissolution of the Soviet Union, but was ultimately reintegrated into Moldova in 1995.
In 1994, the Parliament of Moldova awarded to “the people of Gagauzia” (through the adoption of the new Constitution of Moldova) the right of “external self-determination”. On 23 December 1994, the Parliament of the Republic of Moldova accepted the “Law on the Special Legal Status of Gagauzia”. The law entered into force on 14 January 1995, resolving the dispute peacefully. 23 December is now a Gagauz holiday. Gagauzia is now a “national-territorial autonomous unit” with three official languages: Romanian, Gagauz, and Russian.
