Tiraspol, the capital of Transnistria
View from 25th October Street towards the Nativity Church, also known as the Cathedral of the Birth of Christ, the largest and newest church in Tiraspol, a Russian Orthodox Church completed in 1999. In the foreground a poster of Sheriff, the second-largest company based in Transnistria, it includes nearly all forms of profitable private business in this small nation, and has even become significantly involved in Transnistrian politics and Soccer.
