Ethno-cultural Relationships in the Republic of Moldova

The Republic of Moldova is one of the European countries with a multiethnic population and a culture which has been constituted over a long historic period. The allergenic population living for centuries on this territory and having contact with the indigenous population did not lose its individuality. This is due to the tolerance and respect of the main population for the ethnic minorities, and their culture, which is expressed through language, tradition, arts, etc. Thus, the connection between the allergenic population and their historic native land and the aboriginal people is obvious. After the proclamation of independence, the Republic of Moldova engaging itself in the democratic changes and building the rule of law and being in conformity with the European standards, it recognized the rights of the national/ethnic minorities, who enjoy equal rights with the majority population.
