During Joseph Stalin's rule (1922–1953), many places, mostly cities, in the Soviet Union and other communist countries were named or renamed in honor of him as part of the cult of personality surrounding the dictator. Most of these places had their names changed back to the original ones shortly after the 20th Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union in 1956, or after the beginning of destalinization in 1961. In some countries, including those in the West, there are streets, squares, etc. named after Stalingrad (and hence indirectly after Stalin), in honour of the courage shown by the defenders at the battle of Stalingrad against Nazi Germany. These names have not been changed back, since they refer to the battle of Stalingrad rather than the city itself. ==Cities== * Oraşul Stalin, 1950–1960 – Brașov, Romania * Qyteti Stalin, 1950–1990 – Kuçovë, Albania * Stalin, 1949–1956 – Varna, Bulgaria * Stalinabad, 1929–1961 – Dushanbe, Tajikistan * Stalingrad, 1925–1961 – Volgograd, Russia * Staliniri, 1934–1961 – Tskhinvali, South Ossetia, Georgia * Stalinisi, 1931–1934 – Khashuri, Shida Kartli, Georgia * Stalino, 1924–1961 – Donetsk, Ukraine * Stalino, – Çaylı, Tartar, Azerbaijan * Stalino, – Stalino, Goygol, Azerbaijan * Stalinogorsk, 1934–1961 – Novomoskovsk, Russia * Stalinogród, 1953–1956 – Katowice, Poland * Stalinsk, 1932–1961 – Novokuznetsk, Russia * Stalinstadt, 1953–1961 – Eisenhüttenstadt, East Germany * Sztálinváros, 1951–1961 – Dunaújváros, Hungary 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「List of places named after Joseph Stalin」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
