The Dniester is a river in Eastern Europe. It runs first through Ukraine and then through Moldova, from which it more or less separates the breakaway territory of Transnistria, finally discharging into the Black Sea on Ukrainian territory again. Tiraspol is the capital of Transnistria (de facto), a breakaway state in Moldova (de jure), where it is the second largest city. The city is located on the eastern bank of the Dniester River. Tiraspol is a regional hub of light industry, such as furniture and electrical goods production. Chitcani is a commune in Causeni District, Moldova. It consists of the village Chițcani and two small villages (hamlets), Merenești and Zahorna. Chitcani is situated to the south-east of the city of Tighina (Bender). The locality, although situated on the right (western) bank of the river Dniester, is under the control of the breakaway Transnistrian authorities. On the opposite side of the river lies the city of Tiraspol.
