History
After the Union of Bessarabia with Romania in 1918, the county belonged to the Kingdom of Romania, which set up the county formally in 1925.After the 1938 Administrative and Constitutional Reform, this county merged with the counties of LÄpuÈna, Cetatea AlbÄ, and Orhei to form Èinutul Nistru.The area of the county was occupied by the Soviet Union in 1940 and became part of the Moldavian SSR. The area returned to Romanian administration as the Bessarabia Governorate following the Axis invasion of the Soviet Union in July 1941. A military administration was established and the region's Jewish population was either executed on the spot or deported to the Transnistria Governorate, where further numbers were killed.BOOK,weblink James S. Olson, James Stuart Olson, Lee Brigance Pappas, Nicholas Charles Pappas, An Ethnohistorical dictionary of the Russian and Soviet empires, Greenwood Publishing Group, 1994, 9780313274978, 484, As the Soviet Union's offensive pushed the Axis powers back, the area again was under Soviet control. On September 12, 1944, Romania signed the Moscow Armistice with the Allies. The Armistice, as well as the subsequent peace treaty of 1947, confirmed the Soviet-Romanian border as it was on January 1, 1941.WEB,weblink The Avalon Project : The Armistice Agreement with Rumania; September 12, 1944, avalon.law.yale.edu, 17 March 2018, United States Department of State.
