Gologory is a village founded in 1099 in Zolochiv district of Lviv region in Ukraine. It's population today is 658 people. Formerly it was a town called Duklya. In the village, the river Gnyla Lypa (Rotten Linden) falls into the Zolota Lipa (Golden Linden,) which then flows into the Dnister River and into the Black Sea. It's famous for its history, Orthodox and Catholic (Kościół ) churches, Jewish Synagogue and cemetery. There are many ancient tombstones as well as a monument to St. Mark, which stands on top of the hill in place of burial of Pasha of Batu Khan (a Mongol Khanate ruler and founder of the Golden Horde, a division of the Mongol Empire. Batu was a son of Jochi and grandson of Genghis Khan.,) as a symbol of victory of the battle with Tatar invaders (1442). Gologory obtained Magdeburg rights - a set of town privileges first developed by Otto I, Holy Roman Emperor (936–973) which regulated the degree of internal autonomy within cities and villages, granted by the local ruler. in the 13th and 14th centuries, Magdeburg rights were granted to more than a hundred cities, in Central Europe. In these lands, they were mostly known as the German or Teutonic law. This role remained until the old Germanic laws were successively replaced with the Roman law under the influence of the Imperial Chamber Court a judicial institution in the Holy Roman Empire. Thus, being a free city it was able to trade and develop culturally.

Sport in Russia
Listening is a more natural way of learning, when compared to reading. Written language only began at around 3200 BC, but spoken language has existed long ago.
Learning by listening is a great way to:
- increases imagination and understanding
- improves your listening skills
- improves your own spoken accent
- learn while on the move
- reduce eye strain
Now learn the vast amount of general knowledge available on Wikipedia through audio (audio article). You could even learn subconsciously by playing the audio while you are sleeping! If you are planning to listen a lot, you could try using a bone conduction headphone, or a standard speaker instead of an earphone.
