Summary/Abstract: The 2014 census in Moldova is meant to give a clear picture as to how Moldovans identify themselves in relation to language and ethnicity. The discussion about the identity of Moldovans, however, is more about emotions than science. The identity question encompasses numerous issues including language, a feeling of belonging and personal attitudes towards Romania and Romanians.
