History of Belarus WELCOME HISTORY AND MAPS Map of Belarus Jewish History of Belarus Belarus, officially Republic of Belarus (1994 estimated population 10,405,000), c.80,150 square miles (207,600 square kilometers), Eastern central Europe, formerly a constituent republic of the USSR; it is sometimes called White Russia. It borders Poland (West); Russia (East); Ukraine (South); and Lithuania and Latvia (North). The majority of the people are Belarussians; Russians, Poles, and Ukrainians are among the minorities. The main religions are the Orthodox Eastern and Roman Catholic churches. Belarussian is the official language, but most people speak Russian. Minsk city (1990 estimated population 1,610,000), capital of Belarus on the Svisloch River. Founded c.1067, it became the capital of the Minsk principality in 1101, and a major trade and craft center by c.1500. Annexed by Lithuania (1326) and Poland (1569), it passed to Russia in 1793 and developed industrially in the 1870s. During World War Ii Minsk was heavily damaged and most of its large Jewish population was exterminated by occupying Nazi forces. The city was rebuilt and industry reestablished after the war. In 1991, with the collapse of the USSR, Minsk was chosen as the ceremonial headquarters of the new Commonwealth of Independent States. Other large cities include Homyel (Gomel), Mahilyow (Mogilev), Vitsyebsk (Vitebsk), Hrodna (Grodno), and Brest. Settled by East Slavic tribes (5th-8th century), the region became part of Kievan Russia (12th century), of the grand duchy of Lithuania (14th century), and of the Russian Empire (18th century) and was devastated by the Russian-Polish wars (16th-18th century), the Napoleonic invasion (1812), World War I (1914-18), and the Soviet-Polish war (1919-20).

document.write('Print Now!'); this page was printed from Factmonster.com www.factmonster.com/ce6/world/A0856895.html Encyclopedia Belarus History Early History through the Soviet Era The region now constituting Belarus was colonized by East Slavic tribes from the 5th to the 8th cent. It fell (9th cent.) under the sway of Kievan Rus and was later (12th cent.) subdivided into several Belarussian principalities forming part of the Kievan state. Kiev's destruction by the Mongols in the 13th cent. facilitated the conquest (early 14th cent.) of Belarus by the dukes of Lithuania. The region became part of the grand duchy of Lithuania, which in 1569 was merged with Poland. The large Jewish population (later decimated by the Germans during World War II) settled in Belarus in the 14th cent. The region flourished under Lithuanian rule; but after the Polish-Lithuanian union Belarus lost its relative importance, and its ruling classes became thoroughly Polonized. In Mar., 1918, the Belarussian National Rada in Minsk proclaimed the region an independent republic; but in Jan., 1919, the Soviet government proclaimed a Belorussian Soviet Socialist Republic at Smolensk, and soon the Red Army occupied all of Belarus. In 1921, the Treaty of Riga, which ended the Soviet-Polish War, awarded W Belarus to Poland. The eastern and larger part formed the Belorussian SSR, which joined the USSR in 1922. In Sept., 1939, the Soviet army overran W Belarus and incorporated it into the Belorussian SSR. Occupied by the Germans during World War II, Belorussia was one of the most devastated areas of the USSR. In 1945 its western border was adjusted slightly in favor of Poland, but the 1939 frontier remained essentially unchanged. The republic has had a separate seat in the United Nations since 1945.

The territory of present-day Belarus was first populated in the Early Stone age by Eastern Slavic tribes, the forebears of the Belorussions are the Krivichi, Radimichi and Dregovichi. With the development of the class society the Eastern Slavic tribes begin to unite and the 1st state appered in the 9th century was Kievan Rus. But in the 14th century the Grand Duchy of Lithuania aannexed in bondage to the Polish lords who exploited them cruelly. In the 18th century Belarus was annexed by Russia. Belarus was the synonymous with poverty and backwardness. Belarussian people had no sosial and political rights. On November 7, 1917 Soviet Power was established in Belarus. The life of people of our country is always linked with the life of the neigbours Russian people.

Brief Historical Notes The most pressing issue regarding the history of Belarus is that an honest effort be made to record it and to make it widely available. Obvious as this may sound to many of us, this doesn't seem to be the case for the authorities in the Republic of Belarus. In fact, the opposite trend has been taking place since at least 1995. (For example, there were plans to open up the KGB records, but that never occurred.) This repressive trend includes school textbooks, reference books, general history references, and of course all forms of news media. Refer to the Examples of Censorship section for further notes on this topic.

Oleynik The National Library of Belarus was founded on September 15, 1922, originally as the Belarusian State and University Library. In 1926 it was reformed into an independent institution the State Library of BSSR. Since 1992 it is the National Library of Belarus. From its initiation the Library became the main book-stack of the republic as well as bibliographic and methodological center. Its functions constantly grew in number and so accordingly its staff and facilities. Its holdings were created with the help of the state and that of the main Moscow and Leningrad libraries. The Library was accorded a free legal deposit of the USSR publishing output and two copies of the Republic's. So the current accessions were procured. A number of significant private collections were acquired which presented great research value. In 1932, the year of its decennial anniversary, the Library carried a stock of over 1 mln. units and could answer the needs of researchers and specialists. Since 1925 up to 1933 the Library opened its branches in Vitebsk, Mogilev, Gomel, which later transformed into the oblast (provincial) libraries. A branch, opened in 1934 in Minsk for services to governmental officers, became later the Governmental (the now Presidential) library. At the beginning of 1941 the State Library grew into a significant book-stock of 2 mln. units of which 15.000 users availed themselves.
