Summary/Abstract: The reform of primary education of 1864 was implemented in Bessarabia in 1868, mainly in the villages of large landowners, where before there were no rural primary schools for peasants, in contrast to villages of the state-owned peasants. A network of primary schools started to be created on the basis of special (peace) agreements signed between the rural communities and conciliators of land lawsuits as the state representatives; it became the foundation of modern primary education in these localities.
