Trans-Dniestr has its own government and parliament, army, constitution, flag, and a rousing Soviet-style national anthem; of course, its nationhood would be incomplete without its own currency. This political entity is a precise counterpart in the political world to a well-known physical phenomenon of splintering or fissuring.
德涅斯特河沿岸拥有自己的政府和议会、军队、宪法、国旗，以及令人热血沸腾的苏联式国歌；当然，没有自己的货币，其国基就不可谓稳固。这个政治实体是著名的分裂或裂解物理现象在政治世界的完美写照。当受到挤压时，一个大的表面会裂为几大块，但随后，这些大块又会继续分裂为越来越小的小块。
