19th century, 20th century history of Radom city and World War I: 19th century, 20th century history of Radom city: When so-called 'Central Powers' including Austro-Hungarian and German empires began World War I in July/August 1914, Radom was a big, rapidly developing town, one of the most significant industrial centres in the whole country. However, the years 1914–1918 severely deteriorated the town's economy. In 1915, upon their withdrawal from Poland, Russians plundered Radom from machines and natural resources, while the impoverishment of the local community during the war contributed to a serious crisis in trade, crafts and services, especially since the town was no longer able to sell its products on the Russian market. As a result of World War I, in the period of the 'Second Polish Republic' since 1918, Radom became part of Kielce Voivodeship. Re-established Poland maintained moderate economic development, with cultural hubs of Poland including Warsaw, Kraków, Poznan, Wilno, Lwów becoming major European cities.
20th century history of Radom city and World War II: 20th century history of Radom city and World War II, as on 1 September 1939 - the first day of the German empire's invasion of Poland - the German air force brutally raided the city. Radom became the capital of one of the occupiers' districts of the 'General Government'. In 1941, a ghetto was established in Radom housing about 34,000 Jews. Most of the ghetto's inhabitants died in the extermination camp in Treblinka. Radom was liberated by the Red Army on 16 January 1945.
1941-1944 'Radom Ghetto' set up by German NSDAP regime: Since March 1941 'Radom Ghetto', a Nazi ghetto set up in the city of Radom during occupation of Poland for the purpose of persecution and exploitation of Polish Jews. It was closed off from the outside officially in April 1941. A year and a half later, the liquidation of the ghetto began in August 1942, and ended in July 1944, with approximately 30,000–32,000 victims - men, women and children - deported aboard Holocaust trains to their deaths at the Treblinka extermination camp. Only a few hundred Jews from Radom survived German empire's war. Among Polish rescuers of Jews, Radom mental hospital's Dr. Jerzy Borysowicz as well as his medical staff in total secrecy organized that the Jews, including children, were receiving daily help. Borysowicz also treated Mordechai Anielewicz, leader of the Jewish Combat Organization instrumental in engineering the 'Warsaw Ghetto Uprising' in April-May 1943. Most of Jerzy Borysowicz' patients however, did not survive the Holocaust. In January 1945, the occupiers sent the last transport of prisoners from Radom to Auschwitz, but it only reached Czestochowa, while the remaining prisoners were massacred in Firlej. On 16 January 1945 the city was captured by the Soviet Red Army and then restored to Poland.

Representatives of all social classes joined the ranks including craftsmen, young people, even nobility and gentry. It met with wide support from international public opinion. It was a guerrilla war in which there were about 1200 battles and skirmishes. Despite initial successes, the uprising ended in failure - as since 1848 in France, Belgium, German states, Austria and whole Europe - because there was no sufficient information, discussion and therefore cooperation in the revolutionary 'party', work together between the democratic progressive opposition factions, especially without modern media later in European and global history. Tens of thousands of insurgents were killed, nearly 1000 were executed, about 38,000 were sentenced to penal servitude or sent down to Siberia, and about 10,000 emigrated. One of the positive effects of the uprising was the affranchisement of peasants which was carried out more radically than anywhere else in this part of Europe

History of Central European 'Silesia', in the 21st century including areas of 9 countries: History of Silesia, as in the second half of the 2nd millennium B.C. - late Bronze Age -, Silesia belonged to the Lusatian culture. About 500 BC Scyths arrived, and later Celts in the South and Southwest. During the 1st century BC Silingi and other Germanic people settled in Silesia. For this period we have written reports of antique authors who included the area. Slavs arrived in this territory around the 6th century. The first known states in Silesia were those of Greater Moravia and Bohemia. In the 10th century, Mieszko I incorporated Silesia into Civitas Schinesghe, a Polish state. It remained part of Poland until the Fragmentation of Poland - Great Moravia, the first major state that was predominantly West Slavic to emerge in the area of Central Europe, possibly including territories which are today part of the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary, Austria, Germany, Poland, Romania, Serbia and Ukraine.
Lower Silesia: Lower Silesia, the northwestern part of the historical and geographical region of Silesia, as in the Middle Ages Lower Silesia was part of Piast-ruled Poland.

Lower Silesia emerged as a distinctive region during the fragmentation of Poland, in 1172, when the Duchies of Opole and Racibórz, considered Upper Silesia since, were formed of the eastern part of the Duchy of Silesia, and the remaining, western part was since considered Lower Silesia. During the Ostsiedlung, German settlers were invited to settle in the sparsely populated region, which until then had a Polish majority. As a result, the region became largely Germanised in the following centuries. In the late Middle Ages the region fell under the overlordship of the Bohemian Crown, however large parts remained under the rule of local Polish dukes of the Piast dynasty, some up to the 16th and 17th century.

Geschichte Tworków seit dem 13. Jahrhundert: Im Mittelalter wurde Tworków vermutlich in der ersten Hälfte des 13. Jahrhunderts gegründet und als Angerdorf angelegt. 1258 übertrug es der böhmische König einem böhmischen Adligen. Daraus ergibt sich, dass Tworkau/Tvorkov damals zur mährischen Provinz Troppau und nach der Gründung des Herzogtums Troppau 1318 zu diesem gehörte. Auf der Pariser Friedenskonferenz 1919 beanspruchte die Tschechoslowakei das Gebiet, wie auch Polen. 1936 erfolgte die Umbenennung des Amtsbezirks Tworkau in Amtsbezirk Tunskirch. Am 2. November 1920 wurde Franciczek Adamik in Torkowa (Tworków) geboren, der später bis zum Beginn des 2. Weltkriegs in Schlesien als Schneider arbeitete. Er wurde als Zwangsarbeiter nach Deutschland verschleppt. Später gelang ihm die Flucht nach Sanok und er arbeitete wieder als Schneider, und begann in dieser Zeit einen geheimen Transport von Menschen über die Grenze nach Ungarn zu organisieren. 1940 entkam er bei einer Razzia und versteckte sich in Krakau, wurde jedoch wieder aufgespürt und zur Zwangsarbeit verurteilt. Noch einmal gelang ihm die Flucht und er verband sich 1942 mit der 'Armia Krajowa' und beteiligte sich an der Organisierung der Flucht von Juden aus dem Krakauer Ghetto. 1945 im Januar wurde er von der Gestapo verhaftet und in das Konzentrationslager Groß-Rosen, dann nach Nordhausen und Dora gebracht, bis zu seiner Befreiung durch die Allierten. Im Konzentrationslager wurde Franciszek Adamik gezwungen an Leichenverbrennungen teilzunehmen. 1964 begann er Bilder aus dieser Zeit zu malen und erklärt wie er 'das Gemalte als Gefangener sah. Wenn man nur einmal eine Gaskammer in Funktion gesehen hat, vergißt man es nie.' 1993 konnten seine Bilder auch im Rahmen einer Veranstaltungsreihe 'Aufstand im Ghetto - Warschau 1943' in Osnabrück und Georgsmarienhütte von April bis Mai 1993 gezeigt werden.

In 1038, Kraków became the seat of the Polish governmen and became a leading centre of trade, but the city was sacked and burned during the Mongol invasion of 1241. It was rebuilt practically identical, incorporated in 1257 by the high duke Boleslaw V who like Wroclaw introduced city rights modelled on the Magdeburg law allowing for tax benefits and new trade privileges for the citizens. In 1259, the city was again ravaged by the Mongols. A third attack in 1287 was repelled thanks in part to the newly built fortifications. During 15th and 16th centuries many works of Polish Renaissance art and architecture were created, including ancient synagogues in Kraków's Jewish quarter located in the north-eastern part of Kazimierz, such as the Old Synagogue, then various artists came to work and live in Kraków and Johann Haller established a printing press in the city.

In 1941, the Kingdom of Yugoslavia was invaded and partitioned by the Axis Powers - once again German empire, now including Italy's empire -, and its northern parts, including Novi Sad, were annexed by Hungary. During World War II, about 5,000 citizens were murdered and many others were resettled (in a 1942 raid alone, Hungarian gendarmerie killed 1,246 citizens, among them 809 Jews, 375 Serbs, 18 Hungarians, 15 Russians and 2 Rusyns, and threw their corpses into the icy waters of Danube [9]).

On August 7, 1944, the Allies bombed the Novi Sad oil facilities as part of the Oil Campaign of World War II. The partisan forces from Srem and Backa entered the city on October 23, 1944, and Novi Sad became part of the new socialist Yugoslavia. The post-war Yugoslav authorities punished those responsible for war crimes, as well as those that collaborated with the Axis authorities

Autonomous community of Castile and León does not have a legally established capital city: The Spanish autonomous community of Castile and León does not have a legally established capital city, because the region's 1983 statute of autonomy did not name a capital city. The articles referred only to the 'seat of government', that could only be fixed with a two-thirds approval in the Cortes of Castile and León. In 1987, President of the Junta of Castile and León José María Aznar approved that the basic bodies of regional rule - the presidency, Junta and the Cortes - would be located in Valladolid. One reason for the lack of the official capital is that the merger of Castile and León as one autonomous community caused uproar in the latter, which wanted to be separate. Other autonomous bodies are in the capitals of other provinces of the region. The High Court of Justice of Castile and León is in Burgos, the Court of Audits is in Palencia, the Advisory Council is in Zamora, the Ombudsman is in León. In March 2009, the Junta of Castile and León apologised for textbooks that named Valladolid as capital, saying that it was an honest confusion of its status as a seat. In February 2010, the PP party in Valladolid City Hall rejected a Spanish Socialist Workers' Party proposal for the city to become the official capital, saying it could 'provoke eight motions against it' from the other provincial capitals. In September 2019, José Antonio de Santiago Juárez of Valladolid's PP made a proposal of the same matter, which was opposed by the party leadership.
Valladolid city: Valladolid city, the primary seat of government of the autonomous community of Castile and León. It is also the capital of the province of the same name. It has a population around 300,000 people in 2021, and located roughly in the centre of the northern half of the Iberian Peninsula's Meseta Central, at the confluence of the Pisuerga and Esgueva rivers 15km before they join the Duero, surrounded by winegrowing areas. The area was settled in pre-Roman times by the Celtic Vaccaei people, after 1072 growing in prominence within the context of the Crown of Castile, being endowed with fairs and different institutions such as a collegiate church, University, Royal Court and Chancellery and a royal mint. The city was briefly the capital of the Habsburg Monarchy between 1601 and 1606. The city then declined until the arrival of the railway in the 19th century, and with its industrialisation into the 20th century.

Castile-La Mancha autonomous community: Castile-La Mancha autonomous community of Spain. Comprising the provinces of Albacete, Ciudad Real, Cuenca, Guadalajara and Toledo, it was created in 1982. The government headquarters are in Toledo. The region largely occupies the southern half of the Iberian Peninsula's Inner Plateau, including large parts of the catchment areas of the Tagus, the Guadiana and the Júcar, while the northeastern relief comprises the Sistema Ibérico mountain massif. It is bordered by Castile and León, Madrid, Aragon, Valencia, Murcia, Andalusia, and Extremadura. It is one of the most sparsely populated of Spain's regions. Albacete, Guadalajara, Toledo, Talavera de la Reina and Ciudad Real concentrate the largest urban areas in the region. - 1230–1715 - Cortes of Castile-La Mancha
Toledo city: Toledo city, the capital of the province of Toledo and the de jure seat of the government and parliament of the autonomous community of Castilla–La Mancha. Located on the banks of the Tagus in central Iberia, Toledo is known as the 'Imperial City' because it was the main venue of the court of Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor in Spain, and as the 'City of the Three Cultures' for the cultural influences of Christians, Muslims, and Jews reflected in its history. It was the capital from 542 to 725 AD of the Visigothic kingdom, which followed the fall of the Roman Empire, and the location of historic events such as the Councils of Toledo. By the end of the 7th century the bishop of Toledo was the leader of all other bishops in Hispania, a situation unusual in Europe. It was also unmatched as a symbolic center of monarchy. Under the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Toledo multiple persecutions (633, 653, 693 CE) and stake burnings of Jews (638 CE) occurred; the Kingdom of Toledo followed up on this tradition (1368, 1391, 1449, 1486–1490 CE) including forced conversions and mass murder and the rioting and blood bath against the Jews of Toledo in 1212 CE, scetching Spain's further way into the early modern age, in European wars and Spanish empire's colonization of the Americas. The city had a long history in the production of globally feared bladed weapons. As of 2015, the municipality had a population of the small number of 83,226 citizens.

Andalusia autonomous community: Andalusia autonomous community the southernmost territory in Peninsular Spain. It is the most populous and the second largest autonomous community in the country, and officially recognised as a 'historical nationality'. The territory is divided into the eight provinces of Almería, Cádiz, Córdoba, Granada, Huelva, Jaén, Málaga, and Seville. Its capital city is Seville. The seat of the High Court of Justice of Andalusia is located in the city of Granada. Andalusia is located south of the autonomous communities of Extremadura and Castilla-La Mancha, west of the autonomous community of Murcia and the Mediterranean Sea, east of Portugal and the Atlantic Ocean, and north of the Mediterranean Sea and the Strait of Gibraltar. Andalusia is the only European region with both Mediterranean and Atlantic coastlines. The small British overseas territory of Gibraltar shares a 1.2 kilometres land border with the Andalusian portion of the province of Cádiz at the eastern end of the Strait of Gibraltar. The main mountain ranges of Andalusia are the Sierra Morena and the Baetic System, consisting of the Subbaetic and Penibaetic Mountains, separated by the Intrabaetic Basin. In the north, the Sierra Morena separates Andalusia from the plains of Extremadura and Castile–La Mancha on Spain's Meseta Central. To the south the geographic subregion of Upper Andalusia lies mostly within the Baetic System, while Lower Andalusia is in the Baetic Depression of the valley of the Guadalquivir river. - History of Andalusia - Parliament of Andalusia - 22 March 2015 Andalusian parliamentary election - 23 March 2015: The Socialists winning 35% percent of the vote will continue to govern Andalusia as anti-austerity party Podemos wins 15 seats

PM Andersson said 'it’s very important that we do have these security assurances' from Europe and Nato: 7 September 2022: Sweden’s Social Democratic PM Magdalena Andersson has said the country is at a pivotal moment as it prepares for its most critical election in years, in which rightwing populists with neo-Nazi roots are likely to become the second biggest party. The election comes at a tumultuous time for Sweden, against the backdrop of growing hostility from Russia as it prepares to join Nato, a Europe-wide energy crisis, and violence on the streets. PM Andersson said she did not consider Russia a 'direct military threat', but she added 'it’s very important that we do have these security assurances that we got from the UK, the USA, France, Germany and many other countries during our Nato application. We’re very grateful for that, it means a lot to us'. Calling for Europe to become less dependent on Russian gas, she said gas and electricity prices must be 'decoupled'.

History of Volhynia since the Middle Ages: History of Volhynia, as Volyn was once part of Kievan Rus' before becoming an independent local principality and an integral part of the Halych-Volynia, one of Kievan Rus' successor states. In the 15th century, the area came under the control of neighbouring Grand Duchy of Lithuania, in 1569 of Poland and then in 1795 - since the partitions of Poland and the '1814/1815 Congress of Vienna' until 1914-1918 Central Powers WWI to the Russian Empire where it was a part of the Volynskaya Guberniya. In the interwar period most of the territory, organized as Wolyn Voivodeship was under Polish control. In 1939 Poland was invaded and divided by NSDAP-rule German empire and the Soviet Union, as Volyn was joined to Soviet Ukraine as 'Volyn Oblast districts' and many Ukrainians rejoiced at the 'reunification', after WWI and the November revolution in 1917 no longer in the Tsardom of Russia with its ruling Romanov dynasty. In July 1941 Volyn along with the Soviet Union was invaded by the Nazi Germany's 'Barbarossa Offensive'. Nazis alongside Ukrainian collaborators completed their Holocaust of the Jews of Volhynia in late 1942, despite partisan activity started in Volyn in 1941, soon after German occupation. Partisans were involved in the Rail War campaign against German supply lines and were known for their efficiency in gathering intelligence and for sabotage. The region formed the basis of several networks and many members of the local population served with the partisans. The Poles in the area became part of the Polish Home Army, which often undertook operations with the partisan movement. UPA initially supported Nazi Germany which had in turn supported them with financing and weaponry before the start of World War II. Many served in the various RONA and SS units. Once they became disillusioned with the Nazi program, they independently began to target all non-Ukrainians (Poles, Jews, Russians, among others) for extermination.

Soon after, Jews from a few neighboring villages were brought to Yavoriv bringing the ghetto population to 6000. The overcrowding, starvation, and poor sanitary conditions soon led to a typhus epidemic. After about 500 more able-bodied Jews were sent to a labor camp, on 16 April 1943, the German and Ukrainian police took more than 3500 Jews to the Porudno forest and murdered them. More than 2500 Jews were murdered before noon on the 16th, the rest over the next few days. The Germans and Ukrainians burned the ghetto and searched for those in hiding. Those found were shot.

For many of the survivors, Europe had become 'a vast cemetery of the Jewish people' and 'they wanted to start life over and build a new national Jewish homeland in Eretz Yisrael'. In late 1944 and early 1945, Jewish members of the Polish resistance met up with Warsaw ghetto fighters - only a very small number survived by fleeing through Warsaw's sewers - in Lubin to form Bricha as a way of escaping the antisemitism of Europe, where they were convinced that another Holocaust would occur. After the liberation of Rivne, Eliezer and Abraham Lidovsky, and Pasha (Isaac) Rajchmann, concluded that there was no future for Jews in Poland. They formed an artisan guild to cover their covert activities, and they sent a group to Cernauti, Romania to seek out escape routes

Since 24 February 2022 Russian invasion, Borodianka devastated: During the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, Borodianka was on the main axis of the Russian advance on Kyiv launched on 24 February 2022 and it came under heavy Russian air strikes and artillery shelling early in the campaign. Several apartment buildings and other civilian infrastructure were destroyed. By 30 March 2022, as the Russian forces — bogged down in a stalemate around Kyiv — withdrew to their launch point in Belarus, Borodianka had been devastated, its residential blocks left in ruins and civilians trapped in rubbles. On 5 April 2022, Ukrainian officials warned that casualties in the town were likely higher than those in a nearby Bucha and accused the Russian troops of deliberately targeting civilians and blocking rescue efforts during their presence in the area
Bucha city: Bucha city in Ukraine's Kyiv Oblast, incorporated as a city of oblast significance with a population of approximately 36,971 citizens in 2021. The settlement arose with construction of the Kyiv–Kovel railway in 1898 around a small train stop by Bucha River, as Bucha became a train stop of the Kyiv–Kovel railway similar to one in the modern city of Irpin. In close vicinity to the Bucha train stop there was a small village called Yablunka, where there used to be a brick factory. During NSDAP-ruled German empire's 1939-45 World War II, before the liberation of Kyiv from Nazi forces in December 1943, Bucha was the location of the headquarters of the 1st Ukrainian Front commanded by General Nikolai Vatutin, who since took command of the Soviet forces near Novgorod and rallied them for offense and forced the entire German Army Group North to regroup its troops to halt the Soviet offensive. The Wehrmacht lost the precious summer season needed for an effective attack on Leningrad, while the Red Army got additional time to strengthen the fortifications of the city. Due to this, the Germans failed in their best shot to capture Leningrad, one of the key German strategic failures during the early phase of war, as in January 1942, during the Soviet winter offensive following the Red Army victory in the Battle of Moscow, Vatutin's forces trapped two German corps in Demyansk, and achieved the first large Soviet encirclement of German forces. Vatutin employed innovative tactics and actions, while the Germans responded more conventionally, but the Red Army was still unable to destroy the German defenses, mainly due to the weakness of the Soviet air force. In April 1942, Vatutin finally breached the German lines, just as a German relief force arrived. The German command drew self-congratulatory and misleading lessons from their narrow escape, concluding that they could overcome Soviet encirclements with supplies from the air while mounting a relief operation. This thinking contributed to the 1942/43 Wehrmacht disaster at Stalingrad, where the Soviet air force proved much more capable of disrupting Luftwaffe resupply efforts, initiating the end of NSDAP military's superiority more and more obvious in 1943 since third Battle of Kharkov (today Kharkiv) in February and March 1943 known in the Soviet Union as the Donbas and Kharkov operations

Another 15,000 Jews were murdered in the same place during 1941–1942. After the war, the surviving Jews returned to the city. On September 4–7, 1945 a pogrom took place and around one hundred Jews were beaten, of whom thirty-six were hospitalized and five died of wounds.

Today there are approximately 20,000 Jews in Kyiv, with two major religious communities.

Kryvyi Rih city: Kryvyi Rih city, the largest city in central Ukraine and 7th most populous city in the country. It lies within a large urban area with approximately one million inhabitants and serves as the administrative center of Kryvyi Rih District. City’s population at the beginning of 2022 is estimated at 680,000 citizens. Located at the confluence of the Saksahan and Inhulets rivers, Kryvyi Rih was founded as a staging post in 1775 and developed as a military settlement. Urban growth followed Belgian, French and English investment in the exploitation of area's rich iron-ore deposits (generally called Kryvbas) in the 1880’s. Kryvyi Rih gained city status after the October Revolution in 1919, and - following Lenin's 1918 assassination and his death in 1924 - Stalin-era industrialisation saw the development in the city from 1934 of Kryvorizhstal, the largest integrated metalurgical works in the Soviet Union. After a brutal NSDAP-ruled German empire's occupation in World War Two, Kryvyi Rih experienced industrial and urban growth through to the 1970s. The economic dislocation associated with the break-up of the Soviet Union in 1990/91 contributed to high unemployment and a large-scale exodus from the city in the 1990s, leading in then Russia to the Putin regime.
August 1941 - February 1944 Kryvyi Rih occupied by NSDAP-ruled German empire's army, war crimes: August 1941 - February 1944 Kryvyi Rih was occupied by NSDAP-ruled German empire's army in its WWII, and was administered for most of that period as part of the Reichskommissariat Ukraine. In advance of the Germans, industrial plant and machine operators were evacuated to Nizhny Tagil in the Ural. In 1939 12,745 Jews had lived in Krivoy Rog, comprising about 6% of the total population. Those who did not succeed in leaving the city during the organized evacuation were systematically concentrated and murdered by the Nazi occupiers. The first mass killing of two to three hundred by an Einsatzkommando occurred at the end of August 1941 at a brick works. On 14–15 October a combination of SS, German police and Ukrainian auxiliaries murdered 7,000 more at an iron ore mine. Children were thrown into the pits alive. Today in the 2020s Jews number 15,000 citizens, followed by Russians and Armenians.
Post-war Soviet city of Kryvyi Rih: In a national referendum on 1 December 1991, Ukrainian independence was approved by 90% of the votes cast in Kryvyi Rih's Dnipropetrovsk Oblast. The first 25 years of independence was a period of economic dislocation and adjustment. The population of the city decreased by almost 100,000 from a peak of 780,000 in the late 1980s. Assisted by Metinvest, investment followed the 2005 privatization of Kryvorizhstal. In July 2020 Kryvyi Rih Municipality and the Kryvyi Rih Raion came under a common city authority, and Krivyi Rog has two independent universities, and several institutes and technical schools. Until the events of Euromaidan in 2014 and their aftermath, in local and national elections Kryvyi Rih favored Russian-friendly candidates belonging first, in the 1990s, to the Communist Party of Ukraine and then, in the new century, the Party of Regions. In 2010, city elected Party of Regions Yuriy Vilkul mayor, and helped Viktor Yanukovych to victory in the presidential election. After the Euromaidan events, which were accompanied by demonstrations and clashes in the city centre, support began to ebb from the Party of Regions. Petro Poroshenko, who insisted that Russian separatists in the Donbas 'don't represent anybody', was supported in the presidential election of 2014. Vilkul was re-elected mayor in 2015, but amidst large-scale protests alleging electoral fraud. In the 2019 Ukrainian presidential election the city supported its native son Volodymyr Zelenskyy, and in the July 2019 elections for the Ukrainian Rada, candidates for Zelenskyy's Servant of the People Party won the city's three parliamentary seats.

On the night of 3–4 March 2018, the roof collapsed at AMKR's converter shop, killing a 25-year-old worker. In May, the now ArcelorMittal steel plant ground to a halt as workers refused to guide trains along the factory's self-enclosed supply chain until they received monthly pay of 1,000 euros. Management brought in employees from state-owned railway company Ukrzaliznytsia to run the factory, breaking the strike but leaving the central dispute in place. On 15 October 2020, in an action that began with 393 miners occupying mine-shafts, 18 iron-ore miners came to the surface after spending a total of 43 days underground to protest pay and conditions. The mine administration had introduced piecework wages for most jobs underground, linking people's daily income to the amount of ore mined. In response to this, and to above-ground worker blockades plant management made concessions on wages, benefits and health and safety. - ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih (former Kryvorizhstal and bought in 2005 by Mittal Steel) is Ukraine's largest integrated steel company and the largest private company by revenue in Ukraine, located in Kryvyi Rih, in central Ukraine

Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Station: Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Station, the largest nuclear power plant in Europe and among the 10 largest in the world. It was built by the Soviet Union near the city of Enerhodar, on the southern shore of the Kakhovka Reservoir on the Dnieper river. It is operated by Energoatom, who also operate Ukraine's other three nuclear power stations. The plant has 6 VVER-1000 pressurized light water nuclear reactors, as the first five were successively brought online between 1985 and 1989, and the sixth was added in 1995. The plant generates nearly half of the country's electricity derived from nuclear power, and more than a fifth of total electricity generated in Ukraine. The Zaporizhzhia thermal power station is nearby. On 4 March 2022, the nuclear and thermal power stations were both captured by Russian forces during the Battle of Enerhodar of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine.

6 June 2023 Russia's destruction of the Kakhovka Dam and extensive flooding: On 6 June 2023, the Kakhovka Dam in Ukraine was breached, causing extensive flooding. Located on the Dnieper in Kherson Oblast, the dam was under the control of the Russian military, which had seized it in the early days of the Russian invasion of Ukraine. Russian forces have been accused of blowing up the dam to hinder the planned Ukrainian counter-offensive. Water levels in the Kakhovka Reservoir had been rising for months due to a lack of regulation at the Russian-controlled dam and power plant, and were at a 30-year high when the dam failed. Thousands of residents downstream were evacuated, and floods submerged several villages in Ukrainian- and Russian-controlled areas. A huge loss of water in the Kakhovka Reservoir also threatens the water supply to Russian-controlled Crimea and the Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant.

23 June 2022 southwestern corner of Ukraine of Odesa oblast is now playing a key role in global trade: 23 June 2022: The once-quiet southwestern corner of Ukraine of Odesa oblast is now playing a key role in global trade, as 18-wheelers are clogging bumpy two-lane roads, hauling goods and grain to and from a border that probably hasn't been this busy since Soviet times. There are only three Ukrainian-run ports that are still operating in the country. All are on the Danube River in this secretive, multiethnic region that locals say has been long overlooked by the Ukrainian government. Russia's blockade and occupation of Ukraine's Black Sea ports have largely halted its maritime trade. Ukraine and the UN say it's also contributing to a global food crisis because Ukraine is such a major food exporter that African and Middle Eastern countries have relied on.

Since Russian Empire 1783–1917 history of Crimea and so-called 'Novorossiya': Since Russian Empire 1783–1917 history of Crimea - Novorossiya, a term of the Russian Empire denoting a region north of the Black Sea, in the 20th and 21st century part of Ukraine where the territory was formerly better known as 'Stepovyna' or 'Nyz'. It was formed as a new imperial province of Russia's tsardom (Novorossiya Governorate) in 1764 from military frontier regions along with parts of the southern Hetmanate in preparation for war with the Ottomans. It was further expanded by the annexation of the Zaporizhian Sich in 1775. At various times it encompassed the Moldavian region of Bessarabia, the modern Ukraine's regions of the Black Sea littoral, Zaporizhzhia, Tavria, the Azov Sea littoral, the Tatar region of Crimea, the Nogai steppe at the Kuban River, and the Circassian lands. The region was part of the Russian Empire until its collapse following the Russian February Revolution in early March 1917. In 1918 following the November Revolution and the June 1919 'Treaty of Versailles', it was largely included in the Ukrainian State and in the Ukrainian Soviet Republic at the same time. In 1918–1920, it was, to varying extents, under the control of the anti-Bolshevik White movement governments of South Russia whose defeat signified the Soviet control over the territory, which became part of the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic, within the Soviet Union from 1922. But in 2014, Russia's Putin regime since and pro-Putin regime separatists attempted to create a 'Novorossiyan confederation' in the region
1853-1856 Crimean War in which Russian empire lost to European, Ottoman Empire alliance: 1853-1856 Crimean War, a military conflict in which Russian empire lost to an alliance of France, the Ottoman Empire, the United Kingdom and Piedmont-Sardinia. The immediate cause of the war involved the rights of Christian minorities in Palestine, which was part of the Ottoman Empire. The French promoted the rights of Roman Catholics, and Russia promoted those of the Eastern Orthodox Church. Longer-term causes involved the decline of the Ottoman Empire, the expansion of the Russian Empire in the preceding Russo-Turkish Wars, and the British and French preference to preserve the Ottoman Empire to maintain the balance of power in the Concert of Europe. It has widely been noted that the causes, in one case involving an argument over a key, had never revealed a 'greater confusion of purpose' but led to a war that stood out for its 'notoriously incompetent international butchery'

November 1917 'Decree on Peace', but February and March 1918 treaties of Brest-Litovsk: After 8 November 1917 'Decree on Peace', February 1918 'Treaty of Brest-Litovsk' Ukrainian People's Republic – Central Powers and 3 March 1918 'Treaty of Brest-Litovsk' peace treaty signed between the new Bolshevik government of Russia and the Central Powers (German Empire, the Austro-Hungarian Empire, the Tsardom of Bulgaria, and the Ottoman Empire), that ended Russia's participation in World War I signed at German-controlled Brest-Litovsk after two months of negotiations. The treaty was agreed upon by the new Russian Soviet power to stop further invasion. According to USA historian Spencer Tucker 'the German General Staff had formulated extraordinarily harsh terms that shocked even the German negotiator'. Congress Poland was not mentioned in the treaty, as Germans refused to recognize the existence of any Polish representatives, which in turn led to Polish protests. When Germans later complained that the 1919 Treaty of Versailles in the West was too harsh on them, the Allied Powers responded that it was more benign than the terms imposed by the Brest-Litovsk treaty.

9 May - 11 November 2022, planned Holocaust refugee museum for Windermere children:9 May 2022: A museum celebrating the Lake District arrival of child holocaust survivors could be built in the next few years, especially remembering about 300 Jewish children who were brought to Cumbria after being rescued from German empire's concentration camps in 1945. Trevor Avery of the Lake District Holocaust Project said the plan was in the very early stages of development. He hoped the museum would be built near the site where the children lived at Calgarth Park at Troutbeck Bridge. - 12 November 2022: Blanche Fixler today in New York - known by the name Bronia as a child - lived in Poland when the Nazis came looking for her and her family. Her mother and her siblings were murdered, but she was saved, thanks to her Aunt Rose, who hid her. In 2022 software engineer Daniel Patt travelled to meet Blanche to reunite her with the lost image from the past. It triggered a long forgotten memory in her including a French song she learned as a child. Blanche immediately recognised herself standing at the front of the large group of people, but that's not all. She also identified her Aunt Rose and one of the boys in the photo, giving Daniel and the USA Holocaust Memorial Museum new information to work with. 'It's so important to identify these photos', says Scott Miller, director of curatorial affairs at the museum. 'You're restoring some semblance of dignity to them, some comfort to their family, and it's a form of memorial for the entire Jewish community'. - 1997: Blanche Fixler, today from New York and in Poland until 1945 Bronia Bruenner, was interviewed in 1997, according to the Blanche and Benzion Collection, published in Joanna Sliwa's 'A Microhistory of the Holocaust', Jewish childhood in Kraków, as the USA Holocaust Memorial Museum said Blanche Fixler was born in Krakow on 15 May 1936., as Bronia's parents were Bobover Chassidim and in 1939 - following the German invasion of Poland - her father and his brothers fled east to Lvov. From there the Soviets deported him to Siberia, and the family lost contact for the duration of the war. Her mother Frimet decided to take her children to Bochnia to live with family. She had hoped conditions would be better there than in Krakow but soon discovered the town was just as dangerous. By 1942, the family had to live in a bunker to escape round-ups. Frimet feared that Bronia might make noise and endanger the rest of the family. She therefore sent her back to Krakow to stay with her sister-in-law, Rosa Berger.

Since 1861–65 Lancashire Cotton Famine, USA civil war against slavery, developing world market: 19th century Lancashire Cotton Famine, also known as the Cotton Famine or the Cotton Panic 1861–65, a depression in the textile industry of North West England, brought about by overproduction in a time of contracting world markets. It coincided with the interruption of baled cotton imports caused by the 'American Civil War' and speculators buying up new stock for storage in the shipping warehouses at the entrepôt. This, as well as causing cotton prices to rise in China, in which trade had been steadily increasing following the Second Opium War and during the ongoing Taiping Rebellion. The increase in cotton prices caused the textile trade to rapidly lose two-thirds of its previous value of exports to China from 1861-1862

Plymouth port city in South West England: Plymouth port city in South West England, located on the south coast of Devon, approximately 58 km south-west of Exeter, bordered by Cornwall to the west and south-west. In 1620, the Pilgrim Fathers departed Plymouth for the New World and established Plymouth Colony, the second English settlement in what is now the USA. Throughout the Industrial Revolution, Plymouth grew as a commercial shipping port, handling imports and passengers from the Americas, and exporting local minerals (tin, copper, lime, china clay and arsenic). The neighbouring town of Devonport became strategically important to the Royal Navy for its shipyards and dockyards. In 1914, three neighbouring independent towns were merged, becoming the County Borough of Plymouth. During World War II, due to the city's naval importance, the German military targeted and partially destroyed the city by bombing, an act known as the Plymouth Blitz. After the war, the city centre was completely rebuilt. In the 21st centurs the city is home to 262,100 citizens in 2019, making it the second-largest city in the South West after Bristol. Plymouth's economy remains strongly influenced by shipbuilding and seafaring but has tended toward a service economy since the 1990s.

Major towns and cities in the region include Brighton and Hove, Milton Keynes, Southampton, Portsmouth, Slough, Reading and Oxford. South East England is the third largest region of England, with with a total population of over eight and a half million inhabitants in 2011. The region contains the seven legally chartered cities of Brighton and Hove, Canterbury, Chichester, Oxford, Portsmouth, Southampton and Winchester. The region's close proximity to London and connections to several national motorways have led to South East England becoming a prosperous economic hub with the largest economy of any region in the UK, after London.
History of Southampton city: History of Southampton city in Hampshire area, settled since the Stone Age. Its history has been affected by its geographical location, on a major estuary on the English Channel coast with an unusual double high-tide, and by its proximity to Winchester and London, the ancient and modern capitals of England. Southampton became an important port in medieval times, experiencing several hundred years of fluctuating fortunes until it was expanded by the Victorians. As a centre of commerce, an industrial town and an important military embarkation point, Southampton was a strategic target for the German empire's Luftwaffe and was severely damaged in World War II. Post-war re-development and the need to accommodate 20th century innovations such as the motor car has significantly altered the character of Southampton.

Since 950 Westminster Abbey: Since 950 Westminster Abbey - the Collegiate Church of Saint Peter at Westminster - mainly Gothic abbey church in the City of Westminster in London, England, just to the west of the Palace of Westminster and the traditional place of coronation and a burial site for English and, later, British monarchs. Since the coronation of William the Conqueror in 1066, all coronations of English and British monarchs have occurred in Westminster Abbey. The church was originally part of a Catholic Benedictine abbey, which was dissolved in 1539. It then served as the cathedral of the Diocese of Westminster until 1550, then as a second cathedral of the Diocese of London until 1556. The abbey was restored to the Benedictines by Mary I in 1556, then in 1559 made a royal peculiar - a church responsible directly to the sovereign - by Queen Elizabeth I.
1303-1853 London Steelyard, one of the principal Kontore of the Hanseatic League: 12th-15th centurie the medieval commercial and defensive confederation of merchant guilds and market towns Hanseatic League in Central and Northern Europe was growing from a few North German towns in the late 12th century, ultimately encompassing nearly 200 settlements across seven modern-day countries bordering the Baltic and North Sea. At its height between the 13th and 15th centuries, it stretched from the Netherlands and Britain in the west to Russia in the east, and from Estonia in the north to Kraków, Poland in the south. In the Kingdom of England the London Steelyard was one of the principal Kontore of the League. King Edward I granted a Carta Mercatoria in 1303. The Steelyard was destroyed in 1469 and Edward IV exempted Cologne merchants, leading to the Anglo-Hanseatic War 1470–74. The Treaty of Utrecht, sealing the peace, led to the League purchasing the Steelyard outright in 1475, with Edward having renewed the League's privileges without insisting on reciprocal rights for English merchants in the Baltic. London merchants persuaded Elizabeth I to rescind the League's privileges on 13 January 1598, but - while the Steelyard was re-established by James I - the advantage never returned. Consulates continued however, providing communication during the Napoleonic Wars, and the Hanseatic interest was only sold in 1853, following the 1848-1852 European revolutions - In the Kingdom of England port cities with Hansa trading posts included Berwick-upon-Tweed, Bristol, Boston, Damme, Leth, Hull, Newcastle, Great Yarmouth, King's Lynn, York, as the Hanseatic Warehouse in King's Lynn is the only surviving League building in England in the 21st century

Briefly a political journalist then married Jenny Longuet taught language classes and had a family of five sons and a daughter before her death to cancer at the age of 38, as her father was too ill to attend the funeral in France and died two months later - Jenny Laura Marx 1845-1911, the second daughter of Karl and Jenny Marx. In 1868, she married Paul Lafargue born in Santiago De Cuba, and later a young French socialist who came to London in 1866 to work for the First International. There he became a friend of Karl Marx and got to know Marx's family. During their first three-years of marriage they had three children, two boys and a girl, all of whom died in infancy. They spent several decades in political work together, translating Karl Marx's work into French, and spreading Marxism both in France and Spain. - Jenny Julia Eleanor Marx 1855–1898, sometimes called Eleanor Aveling, the English-born youngest daughter of Karl Marx. She was herself a socialist activist who sometimes worked as a literary translator. Eleanor Marx identified strongly with her Jewish heritage, proudly declaring 'I am a Jewess', in a reversal of her paternal grandparents' abandonment of Judaism and conversion to Christianity. Her interest in her Jewish heritage was sparked by her interactions with working-class Jewish sweatshop workers involved in social justice struggles in London's East End, as well as by the Dreyfus affair in France. Her earliest Jewish engagement was in October 1890, when she attended a meeting of a group of Jewish socialist workers in London in order to protest against antisemitic persecution in Czarist Russia. She learned Yiddish and sometimes delivered lectures in the language In March 1898, after discovering that Edward Aveling, her partner and a prominent British Marxist, had secretly married a young actress in June of the previous year, she poisoned herself at the age of 43 - Marx and Engels on music
1843 Karl Marx' frühe Texte: Im Jahr 1843 - in seiner 'Kritik der 'Deutschen Ideogie' in der 'Vormärz' Periode der deutscher Länder zwischen der Julirevolution 1830 und der Märzrevolution von 1848 (und andere im Europa der Jahre 1848-1851) - schreibt Karl Marx in seiner Kritik zu Bruno Bauers Schrift 'Die Judenfrage' von 1843 (in der es heißt, daß die deutschen Juden 'die staatsbürgerliche, die politische Emanzipation' begehren), daß 'erst in den nordamerikanischen Freistaaten (wenigstens in einem Teil derselben) die Judenfrage ihre theologische Bedeutung verliert und zu einer wirklich weltlichen Frage' wird. 'Mit der lebensfrische(n ... Existenz der Religion (sei) der Beweis geführt, daß das Dasein der Religion der Vollendung des Staats nicht widerspricht.' 'Die Religion gilt uns nicht mehr als der Grund, sondern nur noch als das Phänomen der weltlichen Beschränktheit'. Marx arbeitet sich gleichermaßen in seiner Kriik an der fast 2000-jährigen Geschichte und Tradition der Juden in Europa ab, die ihn als Sohn einer angesehenen jüdischen Rechtsanwaltsfamilie in Trier, der in der Folge der großen französichen Revolution 1789-1792 und der Judenemanzipation zum Christentum konvertiert war. Wie anderswo in Europa zuvor und insbesondere auf der iberischen Halbinsel, während und in Folge der 'Reconquista' der spanischen 'conquistadores'. Mit von ihnen besonders konsequent, brutal und bis ins 19./20. Jahrhundert praktizierter 'Inquisition', die vor allem auf konvertierte Juden zielte (und diese zu einem sehr kleinen Teil auch wohlhabend, weil sie ab Etablierung der christlichen Religion nach der Zerstörung Israels in 2 Jahrhunderten etwas später als Doktrin, als Staatsreligion des römischen und dann des Heiligen Römischen Reiches deutscher Nation' von 'ehrbaren' Berufen ausgeschlossen wurden, daher u.a. von Jesus als Christus nach seiner Kreuzigung durch das 'Imperium Romanum' verächtlich gemachte Tätigkeiten in Verbindung mit der Geldzirkulation ausübten und wohl gut verstanden hatten. Dieser Kontext wird in der August-Dezember 1843 Schrift von Marx, der im Juni 1843 Jenny von Westphalen in Bad Kreuznach standesamtlich heiratete, nur bruchstückhaft sichtbar, u.a. wegen der damaligen Quellenlage, wegen anderer Schwerpunkte der publizistischen Arbeit des jungen Wissenschaftlers, der bedeutend später in Bemerkungen über anstehende Arbeiten ausdrücklich den individuellen Reproduktionsprozeß der gesellschaftlichen Individuen anspricht (im Unterschied zum gesellschaftlichen Reproduktionspozeß und den er wegen des enormen Aufwands für die Formulierung seines Hauptwerks vernachlässigen mußte), wie auch ethnologische Studien auflistet

10. April 1979 Karl Marx' Brief an Nikolai F. Danielson, der die 3 Bände des Kapital ins Russische übersetzte: Marx-Engels-Werke Band 34: Briefe Januar 1875 - Dezember 1880, mit 10. April 1979 Karl Marx' Brief an Nikolai F. Danielson, der die 3 Bände des Kapital ins Russische übersetzte: 'Ich hätte unter keinen Umständen den zweiten Band (MEW 24 Der Zirkulationsprozeß des Kapital) veröffentlicht, ehe die augenblickliche industrielle Krise in England ihren Höhepunkt erreicht hat. Die Phänomene sind diesmal ganz eigenartig, sie unterscheiden sich in vieler Beziehung von den früheren, und dies - ganz abgesehen von anderen modifizierenden Umständen - erklärt sich leicht durch die Tatsache, daß niemals zuvor der englischen Krise ungeheuere und jetzt fast schon fünf Jahre andauernde Krisen in den Vereinigten Staaten, Südamerika, Deutschland, Osterreich usw. vorausgingen. Man muß also den gegenwärtigen Verlauf beobachten, bis die Dinge ausgereift sind, dann erst kann man sie 'produktiv konsumieren', das heißt 'theoretisch'. Eine der Besonderheiten des augenblicklichen Zustandes ist diese: Es fanden, wie Sie wissen, Bankkrachs in Schottland und in einigen englischen Grafschaften, hauptsächlich in den westlichen (Cornwall und Wales) statt. Doch das wirkliche Zentrum des Geldmarkts - nicht nur des Vereinigten Königreiches, sondern der Welt -, London, ist bis jetzt nur wenig berührt worden. Im Gegenteil, von wenigen Ausnahmen abgesehen, haben die großen Aktienbanken, wie die Bank von England, bisher von der allgemeinen Flaute nur profitiert. Und was diese Flaute edeutet, können Sie schließen aus der völligen Hoffnungslosigkeit des englischen kommerziellen und industriellen Philisters, jemals wieder bessere Zeiten zu sehen. Ich habe so etwas noch nicht erlebt, bin noch nie Zeuge einer ähnlichen Kopflosigkeit gewesen, obwohl ich 1857 und 1866 in London war.'
Novewmber 1887 'Bloody Sunday' in London and brutal treatment of women activists: 13 Novewmber 1887 'Bloody Sunday' in London and brutal treatment of women activists, when marchers protesting about unemployment and coercion in Ireland, as well as demanding the release of MP William O'Brien, clashed with the Metropolitan Police and the British Army, as the period from 1885 to 1906 was one of Tory dominance and 'coercion Acts' against rural unrest in Ireland, involving various degrees of suspension of civil rights in the wider context of 'Long Depression', starting in 1873 and lasting almost to the end of the century, a worldwide price and economic recession and the most severe in Europe and the USA, which had been experiencing strong economic growth fueled by the Second Industrial Revolution in the decade following USA's abolishment of slavery by A. Lincoln, southern states rebellion and war, as the episode was labeled the 'Great Depression' at the time - Along with many other leading Socialists, Karl Marx's daughter Eleanor Marx took an active role in organizing the London demonstration of 13 November 1887, as several other demonstrations followed in the aftermath, and Eleanor Marx wrote a report on the brutal treatment of women activists and protestors at the hands of police, decrying their actions of targeting women
1893 Independent Labour Party ILP and Marx/Aveling's goal of shifting the ILP's positions towards 'system of criticism of political economy': In 1893 the Independent Labour Party ILP was founded. Eleanor Marx attended the conference as an observer, while her husband Aveling was a delegate, but their goal of shifting the ILP's positions towards 'system of criticism of political economy' failed, with the party remaining under a strong Christian socialist influence, as in 1897, Marx and Aveling re-joined the Social Democratic Federation, like most former members of the Socialist League - Wie der amerikanische Unabhängigkeitskrieg des 18. Jahrhunderts die Sturmglocke für die europäische Mittelklasse läutete, so der amerikanische Bürgerkrieg des 19. Jahrhunderts für die europäische Arbeiterklasse. In England ist der Umwälzungsprozeß mit Händen greifbar. Auf einem gewissen Höhepunkt muß er auf den Kontinent rückschlagen. Dort wird er sich in brutaleren oder humaneren Formen bewegen, je nach dem Entwicklungsgrad der Arbeiterklasse selbst. Von höheren Motiven abgesehn, gebietet also den jetzt herrschenden Klassen ihr eigenstes Interesse die Wegräumung aller gesetzlich kontrollierbaren Hindernisse, welche die Entwicklung der Arbeiterklasse hemmen. Ich habe deswegen u.a. der Geschichte, dem Inhalt und den Resultaten der englischen Fabrikgesetzgebung einen so ausführlichen Platz in diesem Bande eingeräumt. Eine Nation soll und kann von der andern lernen. Auch wenn eine Gesellschaft dem Naturgesetz ihrer Bewegung auf die Spur gekommen ist - und es ist der letzte Endzweck dieses Werks, das ökonomische Bewegungsgesetz der modernen Gesellschaft zu enthüllen -, kann sie naturgemäße Entwicklungsphasen weder überspringen noch wegdekretieren. Aber sie kann die Geburtswehen abkürzen und mildern. - Seit 1830 und den gescheiterten europäischen Revolutionen 1848-51 hatte die 'Bourgeoisie ... in Frankreich und England politische Macht erobert. Von da an gewann der Klassenkampf, praktisch und theoretisch, mehr und mehr ausgesprochne und drohende Formen. Er läutete die Totenglocke der wissenschaftlichen bürgerlichen Ökonomie. Es handelte sich jetzt nicht mehr darum, ob dies oder jenes Theorem wahr sei, sondern ob es dem Kapital nützlich oder schädlich, bequem oder unbequem, ob polizeiwidrig oder nicht. An die Stelle uneigennütziger Forschung trat bezahlte Klopffechterei, an die Stelle unbefangner wissenschaftlicher Untersuchung das böse Gewissen und die schlechte Absicht der Apologetik. Indes selbst die zudringlichen Traktätchen, welche die Anti-Corn-Law League, mit den Fabrikanten Cobden und Bright an der Spitze, in die Welt schleuderte, boten, wenn kein wissenschaftliches, doch ein historisches Interesse durch ihre Polemik gegen die grundeigentümliche Aristokratie. Auch diesen letzten Stachel zog die Freihandelsgesetzgebung seit Sir Robert Peel der Vulgärökonomie aus
