Subdivisions of Moldova

Subdivisions Of Moldova

Currently, Moldova is divided into 37 first-tier units, including 32 districts (Romanian: raioane; see also raions):

three municipalities:

one autonomous territorial unit:

1. Gagauzia

and one territorial unit:

1. Transnistria

The final status of the latter has not been settled yet, as the region, such as defined administratively, is not under the control of Moldovan authorities. The cities of Comrat and Tiraspol also have municipality status, but are not among first-tier units of Moldova; they are the seats of Gagauzia and Transnistria, respectively.
