Moldavia
Moldavia was a Romanian principality between the Carpathians and the Dniester, founded as a Hungarian march under Dragoș and independent under Bogdan I. Stephen the Great defeated the Ottomans at Vaslui in 1475, but the principality later became an Ottoman tributary. It united with Wallachia in 1859.
