During my stay in Russia, I learned that in1930. many monumental Orthodox temples were destroyed. It was a horror!

Yeah, the revolution was a big hit, both socially and culturally for Russia and most of the countries that have ended up as part of the USSR. It is not only about destroyed churches, mosques temples and so on, but also of the violent, bloody regime that was set up in the years following 1917. Russia has lost a lot of educated, talented people, lucky of whom were able to flee abroad, and others have perished.
