Introduction
I was born in Murom
and I'm proud of it. I can say that I truly love my native town. A lot of
people move to big cities and even abroad. I don't think that they are right. To my
mind, where you were born - there you are useful. Besides, every citizen of Murom
must remember about the glorious history, wonderful culture and traditions of
out town. I have been always interested in the quizes devoted to Murom which had been organized by Moscow Psychology - Social Institute in Murom.
I took prize places.

of Motherland is always urgent, because there is no future without past, and to
love your motherland means to know its glorious history.
