The Anthem of the Moldavian SSR was the national anthem of Moldova when it was an union republic in the USSR, used from 1945 to 1991. The music were composed by Stepan Njaga and E. Lazarev; and the words were written by Emilian Bukov and Ivan Bodarev.
The Moldavian Soviet Socialist Republic (Moldovan Cyrillic: РепÑблика СовеÑÐ¸ÐºÑ Ð¡Ð¾ÑиалиÑÑÑ ÐолдовенÑÑкÑ, Romanian: Republica SovieticÄ SocialistÄ MoldoveneascÄ, Russian: ÐолдаÌвÑÐºÐ°Ñ Ð¡Ð¾Ð²ÐµÌÑÑÐºÐ°Ñ Ð¡Ð¾ÑиалиÑÑиÌÑеÑÐºÐ°Ñ Ð ÐµÑпÑÌблика) was a constituent republic of the Soviet Union from 1940 to 1941 and from 1945 to 1990.
Previously, on October 12 1924 the Soviet Union set up an autonomous Moldavian ASSR as a part of the Ukrainian SSR between Dniester and Bug rivers, and it gave many rights to the Romanian minority there, possibly to encourage a dissent of the Romanian Moldavians.
The USSR government encouraged the developing of a "Moldavian culture", said to be distinct from the Romanian one, as well as a Moldavian language, which was claimed to be different from Romanian (although even some Soviet linguists disagreed with this).
