Kiev, the capital of the Ukrainian SSR, is among the cities of the USSR which suffered the greatest damage from the invasion of the Hitlerite hordes. The invaders reduced whole blocks of the city to ruins, demolished factories and mills, cultural institutions and ancient monuments. The Soviet Army liberated Kiev in November, 1943, and restoration of the Ukrainian capital got under way immediately. Many damaged buildings have already been repaired and traces of enemy rule have disappeared from most of the city districts. This photograph shows a restored apartment house on Shevchenko Boulevard in Kiev.

The calculated area given here is 33,563 square kilometers; modern science puts the lake's area at 31,722 square kilometers (9.5% smaller than Piadyshev's atlas would have us believe). Lakes Ladoga and Balkhash come next; 5,604 of the inland water bodies in this layer have an area of less than 1,000 km2; 5,416 have an area less than 100 km2; 4,231 have an area less than 10 km2; 823 have an area of less than 1 km2.
