Proletarskugol' trust in Donetsk, Ukraine (after 1975 it stay a part of the Donetskugol' coal-mining complex).
Btw., Donetsk was founded in 1869 by a Welsh businessman, John Hughes... ;)

Strictly speaking, the 20th anniversary of Victory, but not in the Second World War. In the Great Patriotic War (1941--1945).

WWII was a world war. It started in September 1, 1939* and ended in September 2, 1945**.
*) -- Some historians date its beginning 1938 or even 1937 (see the "Lugouqiao Incident").
**) -- Btw., since Japan has not signed with Russia the peace treaty, that, the WWII as though still proceeds till now?.. ;)

The Great Patriotic War ( http://ru.wikipedia.org/wiki/%D0%92%D0%B5%D0%BB%D0%B8%D0%BA%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%9E%D1%82%D0%B5%D1%87%D0%B5%D1%81%D1%82%D0%B2%D0%B5%D0%BD%D0%BD%D0%B0%D1%8F_%D0%B2%D0%BE%D0%B9%D0%BD%D0%B0 ) was a war between USSR and the incorporated forces of continental Europe, led by Nazi Germany. It was a part of WWII. It started in June 22, 1941 and ended May 9, 1945.

That's what I said…

Nope... ;) You said: "I should say between "Barbarossa" in june 1941 and the end of WWII ?"...
The end of WWII was September 2, 1945...

Getting OT but in the 70ies Finnish history teaching stopped somewhere in the early 1900. People who wrote history books forgot that we childrefn did not know that time, or the writers did not want to write about that period...
So even if I was in school for 12 years I know much less than many others!

Best regards,
Juhani

How much I have understood from a short studying of this problem, in Europe the world modern history is not studied. It is strange...

Strange and very annoying for me who wants to know history!
And hopefully Russian history writing & telling does not get biased again like some have said might be happening. In history we must get all sides opinion to make one true story!

Best regards,
Juhani
