Today’s Doodle depicts the Blue, Yellow and Red Flag of Moldova, as the Balkan republic celebrates its Independence Day. Although Moldova has been a sovereign state for less than three decades, the history and culture of this land date back to Medieval times.
Once known as Bessarabia, the region between the Carpathian Mountains and the Dniester River was part of the Kievan Rus before becoming part of the Kingdom of Wallachia, and later the Ottoman Empire. After being ceded to Russia in the 19th century, like many Soviet Republics, Moldova’s independence movement arose in the late 1980s. Holding their first election in 1990, Moldovans created a parliament, which declared sovereignty in 1990 and independence the following year.
The Moldovan flag flies proudly over independence Day celebrations today in the capital city of Chișinău, which include a parade featuring citizens in traditional folk costumes, wreath-laying ceremonies at memorials to fallen heroes, and public concerts.
Fericită Ziua Independenței, Moldova!
