More information about the video content bellow:
1.Perm is a federal subject of Russia (a krai) that came into existence on December 1, 2005 as a result of the 2004 referendum on the merger of Perm Oblast and Komi-Permyak Autonomous Okrug. The population of the krai was 2,635,276 according to the (2010 Census).
2. Residents of Perm used to be called “Permyak – salty ears”. The name Permyaks firstly appeared in the 10th century in Russian sources and came from the ancient name of the land between the Mezen River and Pechora River – Perm. Several origins of the name have been proposed but the most accepted is from Veps Peräma back, outer or far-away land from Veps perä back, extreme and ma land. Since the 20th century the name has been applied only to the southern Komi (Komi-Permyaks) in Perm Krai.
3. The conventional border between Europe and Asia runs along the Ural mountains. Perm is the very last major city on the European side of the mountains. Yekaterinburg is its equivalent on the Asian side. The border between Europe and Asia is marked by a small monument that can be accessed from the road between Perm and Yekaterinburg.
4. The Permian geological period, the last period of the Palaeozoic era, was named after Perm. In 1841, a British scientist, Sir Roderick Murchison, identified strata typical for the Permian period in his extensive exploration of what is now Perm region. He then postulated the existence of the Permian period and named it after the city of Perm. This period ended with massive extinction of Permian types, when from 70% to 96% of animal species, including insects, have died – the only known such case.
5. Perm-36, a forced labour camp located 100km north-east from Perm, was particularly infamous for its history of housing political prisoners. Perm-36 operated up until the 1980s, before, in 1996 it was turned into a museum. Despite being a highly politically controversial institution, the museum can still be visited.
6. During the Second World War, as the front was approaching Moscow, many military equipment plants (and other enterprises of state importance) were moved to the east, many of them to Perm. Because of this high concentration of state secrets, Perm unofficially became a closed city: foreigners were not allowed to come here and rumour has it that the city didn’t appear on many Soviet maps. Foreign visitors were only allowed to visit in the 1990s.
7. “The Great Tea Road” – this was the name of the route used to transport tea in caravans from China to the European part of Russia. The greatest development of the Great Tea Road took place in 17th-19th centuries. It went across the territory of three current countries: Russia, Mongolia and China.

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.

SUMMARY
=======
The Republic of Sakha (Yakutia) (Russian: Республика Саха (Якутия), tr. Respublika Sakha (Yakutiya), IPA: [rʲɪsˈpublʲɪkə sɐˈxa jɪˈkutʲɪjə]; Sakha: Саха Өрөспүүбүлүкэтэ, translit. Sakha Öröspüübülükete, IPA: [saˈxa øɾøsˈpyːbylykete], Sakha Republic), simply Sakha (Yakutia) (Russian: Саха (Якутия); Sakha: Саха Сирэ, translit. Sakha Sire), is a federal subject of Russia (a republic). It has a population of 958,528 (2010 Census), consisting mainly of ethnic Yakuts and Russians.
Comprising half the Far Eastern Federal District, it is the largest subnational governing body by area in the world at 3,083,523 square kilometers (1,190,555 sq mi) and the eighth largest territory in the world, if the republics of Russia were compared with other countries. It is larger than Argentina and just smaller than India. Its capital is the city of Yakutsk. It is also well known for its extreme and severe climate, with the lowest temperatures in the Northern Hemisphere being recorded in Verkhoyansk and Oymyakon, and regular winter averages commonly being below −35 °C (−31 °F) in several population centers, including Yakutsk. The hypercontinental tendencies also result in very warm summers for much of the republic.

Headquartered in Moscow, the Academy (RAS) is considered a civil, self-governed, non-commercial organization chartered by the Government of Russia. It combines the members of RAS (see below) and scientists employed by institutions. Near the central academy building there is a monument to Yuri Gagarin in the square bearing his name.
