Changing of the Guard, Mamayev Kurgan Memorial, Russia. [05:37]
Memorial to Starlingrad heroes. Mamayev Hill Memorial is based in Volgograd (formaly known as Starlingrad). The Battle of Stalingrad began on 19 of August 1942 and ended on February 2, 1943. The first massive bombing of Stalingrad took place on 19 August 1942. By February 2nd 1943 Field Marshal Paulus, signed the unconditional surrender of his army. At that time Stalingrad was a major industrial center, producing, in particular, T-34 tanks. The Stalingrad area was the largest agricultural region. All this (the production of weapons and food) helped to win at that battle. The capture of this area was one of Hitler's strategic objectives. After the defeat near Moscow in 1941, Hitler renounced its capture and in 1942 directed his efforts to capture Stalingrad and the Caucasus. Caucasus - that is Baku oil. Winter, of course, played a role, but the key was in a fierce resistance both the civilian population and the army. In 1956, took place 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union, which denounced Stalin's personality cult and served as a starting point for the country's democratization in the postwar period. A byproduct of this was the renaming of Stalingrad which is now known as Volgograd.

Saint Basil's Cathedral on the Red Square, Moscow Russian culture started from that of East Slavs, who were largely polytheists, and had a specific way of life in the wooden areas of Eastern Europe. The Scandinavian Vikings, or Varangians, also took part in the forming of Russian identity and state in the early Kievan Rus' period of the late 1st millennium AD. Rus' had accepted the Orthodox Christianity from the East Roman Empire in 988, and this largely defined the Russian culture of next millennium as the synthesis of Slavic and Byzantine cultures.[52] After the fall of Constantinople in 1453, Russia remained the largest Orthodox nation in the world and claimed succession to the Byzantine legacy in the form of the Third Rome idea. At different points of its history, the country also was strongly influenced by the European Culture, and since Peter the Great reforms Russian culture largely developed in the context of the Western culture. For most of the 20th century, the Marxist ideology shaped the culture of the Soviet Union, where Russia, or Russian SFSR, was the largest and leading part. Russian culture is extremely various and unique in many aspects. It has a rich history and can boast a long tradition of excellence in every aspect of arts,[53] especially when it comes to literature[54] and philosophy, classical music[55][56] and ballet,[57 ...
