City of federal significance

The city of federal significance is an independent administrative unit of the upper level along with the republics, territories, autonomous districts and regions.

There are three such cities in the Russian Federation: Moscow (1993), St. Petersburg (1993) and Sevastopol (1948). The status of a city of federal significance of the Russian Federation also has Baikonur, which is located in the Russian Federation on a leasehold basis under the Russian-Kazakhstan agreement, but is not a constituent entity of the Russian Federation.

A city of regional significance is an independent administrative unit of a subject of the federation on a par with districts and is directly subordinate to the administration of a subject of the Russian Federation. This category includes all administrative centers of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, as well as large regional centers.

City of district significance

The category of city of district significance includes all other cities of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation, such cities are subordinate to the district administration. Most often, cities of regional significance are small regional centers, as well as other cities that are part of the region.

Story

After the administrative reform, all the cities of the Russian Empire began to be divided into provincial, county and supernumerary. The provincial city was the administrative center of any province, the county - counties in the province, the provincial (also called bezuyezd or settlement) city had all the rights of the city, but was not the administrative center.

For the first time, the separation of cities into independent administrative units was carried out in the second half of the 18th century, when the city of Narva was withdrawn from the St. Petersburg province and not assigned to any other province. In 1802, Narva was returned to the St. Petersburg province, but this year can be considered the beginning of a new stage in the history of cities.

It was in 1802 that the first city ​​authorities- cities with adjacent territories, separated from the provinces due to their special location or importance. Then three townships were formed. Later, some town authorities were abolished, while others were formed; as a result, by 1917 there were nine town governments in the Russian Empire.

In 1917-1930, an active administrative-territorial reorganization of the country was carried out, a transition was made from the imperial system "province (region) - county - volost" to the new system "region (krai, republic) - district - district", and then to the system "region (krai, republic) - district", actually preserved to this day. All city governments during this period were abolished; a new division of cities appeared. Separation of cities and their list:

• city ​​of union subordination- a separate city that was not part of the regions and union republics, with subordination directly to the top leadership of the USSR;
  • Moscow, Leningrad, Kyiv, Alma-Ata, Sevastopol, Minsk, Dushanbe, Ashgabat, Novosibirsk, Vladivostok;
• city ​​of republican subordination- the administrative center of the union republic of the USSR, in some cases also some other cities of the union republics;
  • see Union republics of the USSR
• city ​​of republican (ASSR) subordination- the administrative center of the ASSR within the Union Republic;
• city ​​of regional (territorial) subordination- the administrative center of the region or region;
• city ​​of regional (AO) (district) subordination- the administrative center of an autonomous region or autonomous okrug;
• city ​​of district subordination- the administrative center of the district of the subject.

Until 1931, all cities were part of their administrative units, and the cities of republican subordination also served as the administrative centers of the respective regions or districts.

In 1931, two large cities of the USSR - Moscow and Leningrad were separated from their regions into independent units. In addition, Leningrad, not being the capital of the republic, also received the category of "city of republican subordination." In 1943 and 1946, respectively, the cities of Tashkent and Minsk were separated from their regions into independent units.

In 1943-1951, a number of large cities of the RSFSR were classified as cities of republican subordination, including Gorky, Krasnoyarsk, Kuibyshev, Molotov, Novosibirsk, Omsk, Rostov-on-Don, Saratov, Sverdlovsk, Sevastopol, Sochi, Stalingrad and Chelyabinsk . However, on June 3, 1958, all these cities (except Sevastopol) were returned to the categories of regional or regional subordination.

Also, starting from the 1920s, large regional centers begin to receive the category of cities of republican (ASSR), regional, regional subordination, and in union republics that do not have administrative units above the district (for example, the Moldavian SSR or Estonian SSR) - republican subordination. in turn, cities that did not have any status receive the category of city of district subordination.

Throughout time, cities of various categories have come and gone. The reason for the transfer from one category to another could be a change in the administrative-territorial structure of the region (for example, the abolition of a district or the transfer of its administrative center), the loss of significance of the city for the region (for example, the closure of a city-forming enterprise), a significant reduction in population, loss of status cities, the merger of a city with a larger city, and some other reasons.

In the first years after the collapse of the USSR, the situation did not change dramatically, only the terminology changed: the clarification “(ASSR)” was removed, the word “meanings” began to be used instead of the word “subordination”, and the category “city of republican subordination” was replaced by the category “ federal city". After the administrative reform, cities of regional (i.e., republican, krai, oblast, district) significance began to be called "urban district", but the category of cities remains to this day. Some cities of regional significance were merged with their districts and actually moved into the category of cities of regional significance.

In other republics of the former USSR, the situation with cities has developed in different ways. So, in Azerbaijan, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan and Ukraine, the Soviet system of categories of cities was actually preserved, a number of cities were separated from the regions into independent units (Almaty and Astana in Kazakhstan, Bishkek and Osh in Kyrgyzstan, Dushanbe in Tajikistan, Ashgabat in Turkmenistan, Kyiv in Ukraine). In Lithuania, Georgia and Armenia, the cities of republican subordination disappeared as a result of administrative-territorial reforms. In Estonia, the cities of republican subordination were included in the counties, that is, in fact, they also ceased to exist. In Moldova, the category "city of republican subordination" was removed from all cities. Later, some cities were given the new status of "municipalities", but it is not a strict equivalent of "city of republican subordination", for example, some municipalities are administrative units of the second level, that is, they are part of a district or ATO.

Categories of cities (Russia) Information About

There are regional centers of Russia (or administrative centers alternative to them) in every subject of our state, and most often they are the largest cities of the region, republic or territory. There are also such subjects in Russia where the main city is not the largest in terms of population, its status was approved on the basis of other considerations. Let's talk about everything in order.

Regional centers - cities of Russia

Russia is a federal state, which has an administrative-territorial division. This means that the entire territory is divided into parts (regions, republics, territories, autonomous regions). The main purpose of such a partition is to simplify the administration of such a large country. We should also not forget about cities of federal significance, they have their own form of self-government. One of these cities is the capital of our Motherland - Moscow, which is also the regional center of Russia.

Two other cities with a similar organizational form of power are St. Petersburg and, more recently, Sevastopol. These cities are of particular importance for the country and for the world, and St. Petersburg has long been the capital of the Russian Empire.

What other major regional centers of Russia are there? This should include million-plus cities, which are also administrative centers:

• Novosibirsk;
• Kazan;
• Yekaterinburg;
• Omsk;
• Samara;
• Chelyabinsk;
• Nizhny Novgorod;
• Rostov-on-Don;

The population of the regional centers of Russia

Above were listed the cities where the population lives, the number of which is in the millions, as well as those that are the administrative centers of the respective regions.

In the Russian Federation there are a number of cities that are also the main ones, but less than one million people live in them, these include:

• Krasnoyarsk;
• Saratov;
• Voronezh;
• Yaroslavl;
• Izhevsk;
• Krasnodar;
• Irkutsk;
• Ulyanovsk;
• Barnaul;
• Vladivostok.

This list can also include cities with a population of just over 500 thousand people, although they are regional centers of Russia. These cities are: Penza, Lipetsk, Orenburg, Astrakhan, Khabarovsk, Ryazan, Tyumen.

The smallest regional centers and some exceptions

Russia is a very large country, and not all of its territory has a high population density. This characteristic may even apply to administrative centers, which are among the most developed. This is especially characteristic in the North Caucasus, as, for example, in the Chechen Republic. Thus, only 220,000 people live in Grozny. And in the north of our country, where the Komi Republic is located, in the republican capital Syktyvkar, there are 230 thousand people.

This list includes such cities as Blagoveshchensk, Veliky Novgorod, Yakutsk, Pskov, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk and Maykop.

As mentioned above, the largest cities in the administrative subject of the state are not always the regional centers of Russia, but this is rather an exception to the rule. For example, the city of Novokuznetsk has long been the administrative center of the Kemerovo region. Only in 2015 the city of Kemerovo received this status.

Exceptions also include the Republic of Ingushetia, where the main city is the city of Magas, with a population of 7 thousand people, while there is a larger city - Nazran with a population of 110 thousand people.

This list also includes the Khanty-Mansiysk Autonomous Okrug with the administrative center Khanty-Mansiysk and the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug, where Salekhard is the main city.

Hello! You are on the channel "Amazing Facts". Tornadoes, or, as they are called on the American continent, tornadoes, are one of the most mysterious and destructive phenomena of nature. This is an atmospheric vortex that occurs in a rain or thundercloud. It looks like a cloud funnel, spreads at an incredible speed and is capable of causing considerable destruction. Today we will talk about the most incredible tornadoes in the history of mankind! So it will be interesting - put likes and look further! The most powerful tornado, which had simply incredible wind speed and was listed in the Guinness Book of Records, was recorded in the USA in the town of Wichita Falls, Texas on April 2, 1958. The maximum wind speed was 450 km/h. The town through which the tornado "walked" was completely destroyed, the houses rose into the air, and some objects were transferred to a great distance. The tornado claimed the lives of 7 people, and 100 were injured. The damage from natural disaster has made 15 million dollars. The tragedy occurred in 1969, when the city of Dhaka was part of East Pakistan (now Bangladesh). The tornado hit the northeastern outskirts of the city. As a result, about 660 people died and a total of 4,000 were injured. And on that day, two tornadoes passed through the territory of modern Bangladesh. The second tornado swept through Khomna Upazila - the region of Comilla. These tornadoes were part of the same storm system, but after they formed, they separated. The second tornado killed 223 people. On May 20, 2013, a devastating tornado swept over the US state of Oklahoma. The storm cut through a strip 3 km wide and 27 km long. The hardest hit was Moore, a suburban town of about 56,000. Large swaths of the city were virtually wiped out by a tornado, which the National Weather Service categorizes as EF-4. The wind speed reached 267 km/h. The tornado lasted for 40 minutes. As a result of the disaster, 24 people died. More than 230 people were injured. Over the past decades, mankind has learned to predict the appearance of tornadoes, build reliable structures for protection and quickly evacuate in the event of a disaster. But June 2015 showed that, despite all the achievements, a person is still defenseless against the power of nature. A river cruise ship was taken by surprise by a terrible tornado that cost the lives of 442 passengers. Fortunately, other ships were warned of the approaching tornado and were not injured. The third deadliest tornado in human history to hit the United States is the 1925 Tri-State Tornado. This tornado had the highest Fujita score of F5 and spawned eight more tornadoes. As the name implies, on March 18, 1925, this tornado hit three states at once. The main blow was inflicted on the state of Missouri, then the hurricane moved to Illinois and completed its deadly procession in the state of Indiana. But the states of Alabama, Tennessee, Kentucky and Kansas were also among the victims. As a result, 695 people died, more than 2,000 were injured, and 50,000 people were left homeless. The action of the tornado lasted 3.5 hours, and the average speed of the funnel was 100 km/h. In 1996, the tornado collected its bloody victim in areas from Madarganj to Mrizapur. Moreover, no preparations and calculations of scientists could prevent the death of 700 people and the destruction of more than 80,000 houses. The number of people injured during this tornado remains unknown, but the death toll makes it the second deadliest tornado in human history. It is difficult to find a country that would have suffered from the consequences of a tornado, like Bangladesh. So (pause)... The Daulatpur-Salturia tornado is considered the deadliest and most destructive tornado in recorded human history. Due to the elements on April 26, 1989, about 1,300 people died in just a few minutes. A giant crater hit Manikganj, a densely populated area of ​​Bangladesh. Prior to the tornado's descent, the country suffered from a drought for six months, a factor that scientists believe contributed to the formation of this tornado. Not surprisingly, a tornado, 1.5 kilometers wide, completely destroyed everything in its path. As a result, about 12,000 people were injured and a total of 80,000 were left homeless. For now, that's all. Subscribe to the channel "Amazing Facts" and see you soon!
