![]() Capital: Moscow Currency: Russian ruble Population: 141,377,752 Victory Day (Over German Nazism in the WW2)
The day of victory in World War II used to be an extremely solemn holiday with a salute at the end of the day, but not anymore. One reason is that unfortunately most of the veterans of WWII are not alive nowadays. But still there are some parades in the centers of cities all over the country, and in the evening there is a traditional salute, mainly for the youth to remember the terrible war and the importance of peace all over the world. Many people have a nice meal, gather with family and friends, recall the heroes of the wars and in the evening go downtown to see the salute. Still many just go outside the city to get some rest. go back |
