Answer 2

Starye Russa, Novgorod, and Veliky Ustyug

During the 1920s and 1930s, several ancient cities in Russia received new names. Three notable examples are Starye Russa, Novgorod, and Veliky Ustyug.

Starye Russa is a historic town located in the Novgorod Oblast of Russia. In 1920, it was renamed "Russkaya Polyana" (Russian Field) as part of the Soviet government's policy to remove religious connotations from place names. However, in 1992, the town reverted to its original name, Starye Russa.

Novgorod, also known as Veliky Novgorod, is one of the oldest and most important cities in Russia. In the 1920s, it was briefly renamed "Maxim Gorky" after the famous Russian writer. However, in 1999, the city restored its historical name, Novgorod.

Veliky Ustyug is another historic city in Russia, known for its traditional Russian architecture and as the residence of Ded Moroz (Father Frost). In the 1930s, it was renamed "Ust-Vym" as part of the Soviet government's policy to remove religious connotations from place names. However, in 1992, the city reverted to its original name, Veliky Ustyug.

These are just a few examples of the many changes that occurred to place names during the 1920s and 1930s in Russia. The renaming of cities was often driven by political, ideological, or cultural motivations.
