Molodiia (Ukrainian: Молодія, Romanian: Plaiul Cosminului) is a village in Chernivtsi Raion, Chernivtsi Oblast (province) of western Ukraine. It is composed of a single village, Molodiia. This was first officially attested in a document dated 1486. It belongs to Chahor rural hromada, one of the hromadas of Ukraine.

History

Until 18 July 2020, Molodiia belonged to Hlyboka Raion. The raion was abolished in July 2020 as part of the administrative reform of Ukraine, which reduced the number of raions of Chernivtsi Oblast to three. The area of Hlyboka Raion was merged into Chernivtsi Raion. In 2001, 55.52% of the 3,822 inhabitants of Molodiia spoke Romanian, or 2,122 people (48.06%, or 1,837 people, self-identified it as Moldovan and 7.46%, or 285 people, as Romanian) as their native language, while 43.54% (or 1,664 people) spoke Ukrainian. In 1992-1993, the school students at the local Ukrainian-language school, the only one in the locality, included 22.96% Ukrainians, 58.5% Romanians, and 17.35% Moldovans. In 1989, the population was 30.74% ethnically Ukrainian, 5.72% self-identified ethnically Romanian, and 61.96% self-identified ethnically Moldovan. The data suggests that the increase in the proportion of self-identified ethnic Romanians and self-identified Romanian speakers at the expense of the self-identified Moldovans and self-identified Moldovan-speakers was more common among the younger generation.
