Stalingrad is now called Volgograd, a city located in southwestern Russia on the Volga River.
<h3>What is Volgograd?</h3>
Volgograd, formerly Tsaritsyn and Stalingrad, is a city and administrative center of Volgogradoblast, southwestern Russia.
In 1589, Volgograd was founded as the fortress of Tsaritsyn to protect newly acquired Russian territory along the Volga. Joseph Stalin organized the defense of the city in a major battle against the White Russian armies during the Russian Civil War, and the city was later renamed in his honor.
From August 1942 to February 1943, one of the decisive battles of World War II took place there. The German armies, at the limit of their advance, attempted to capture Stalingrad after bitter fighting during which the city was reduced to rubble, an army group of some 300,000 men was annihilated, and the German salient was cut off.

<span>Ptolemy might rather be remembered for his contributions to geography than to astronomy. His maps of the world were so accurate for the time that they were used by scholars all over the world for centuries. Christopher Columbus based his theory of finding a westward route to India on Ptolemy's maps. Ptolemy's book Guide to Geography is often considered the beginning of the modern science of cartography, or mapmaking. The strength of the Guide to Geography is that in it, Ptolemy used the important system of latitude and longitude, the lines on a map that pinpoint certain locations, for the first time. The basic idea of latitude and longitude had been suggested by the Greek astronomer and geographer Eratosthenes 400 years before, but it was Ptolemy who developed a system detailed enough to be practical.The book lists the latitude and longitude of about 8,000 geographical locations known to the ancient world. Considering the simple tools and conflicting information Ptolemy had to work with, his maps are remarkably accurate.</span>
the first time the allies opened a second front in Europe was in southern Italy in 194(1-3). it wasn't very effective bc hitler was able to bring mussolini back into power in northeen italy under his thumb. but the more important second front was in france starting with the famous D-day invasion. that was incredibly effective, it distracted hitler enough to where stalin could finally push the germans back on the eastern front.
Well they were similar because they had very similar land and very similar buildings
