Around the World

World Travels with Ron Brown:

Kazan on the Volga: The city of Atilla the Hun, Genghis Khan, and Stalin.

Far in the interior of Russia, where tourists never go, is the fascinating city of Kazan. Atilla the Hun and Genghis Khan, and other barbarians passed through this city on their way to rape, pillage, and plunder Europe. Stalin, the Soviet dictator in turn transformed the city into the home of the Soviet atomic bomb. Russians, Huns, Germans, Asians, Europeans, Jews, Muslims, and Christians populate this wonderful city on the Volga River today. Ron Brown takes us there. FOL
