Pridnestrovie has a size of 4,163 square km, six times larger than Singapore (693 km²) or Bahrain (665 km²), and nearly twice the size of Luxembourg (2,586 km²). What's more, you could fit two thousand Monacos inside Pridnestrovie. So if size matters, Pridnestrovie clearly has plenty. Two recent UN members, Nauru and Tuvalu, are two hundred times smaller than Pridnestrovie. The territory which Pridnestrovie governs is large when compared to other new and independent nations.

Pridnestrovie is small, but is it too small to stand on its own? Based on nearly two decades of independence, the answer is no. Ever since independence in 1990, the country has proven to the world that it meets all the tests of an independent, economically viable nation state. The size of the country, while small, is much larger than lots of other independent nations.
