Leonid Brezhnev
Leonid Ilyich Brezhnev (Леони́д Ильи́ч Бре́жнев; Леоні́д Іллі́ч Бре́жнєв, 19 December 1906 (O.S. 6 December) – 10 November 1982) wis the General Secretar o the Central Committee (CC) o the Communist Pairty o the Soviet Union (CPSU), presidin ower the kintray frae 1964 till his daith in 1982. His aichteen-year term as General Secretar wis seicont anly tae that o Joseph Stalin in duration. In Brezhnev's rule, the global influence o the Soviet Union grew dramatically, in pairt acause o the expansion o the Soviet militar in this time. His tenur as leader wis merked bi the beginnin o an era o economic an social stagnation in the Soviet Union.
Brezhnev wis born in Kamenskoye, Roushie Empire (nou Kamianske, Ukraine), intae a Roushie wirker's faimily in 1906. Efter graduatin frae the Dniprodzerzhynsk Metallurgical Technicum, he becam a metallurgical ingineer in the airn an steel industry, in Ukraine. He jyned the Komsomol in 1923 an becam an active member o the CPSU bi 1929. Wi the onset o Warld War II, he wis drauchtit intae immediate militar service an left the airmy in 1946 wi the rank o major general. In 1952, Brezhnev wis promotit tae the Central Committee an, in 1957 tae full member o the Politburo. In 1964, he succeedit Nikita Khrushchev as First Secretar o the Communist Pairty o the Soviet Union.
As the leader o the Soviet Union, Brezhnev's conservatism an carefuness tae reach deceesions bi consensus wi the rest o the Politburo resultit in susteened poleetical stability within the kintra. Houiver, his hosteelity taewart reform an active cultivation o cronyism ushered in a period o pervasive corruption an socioeconomic decline that cam tae be kent as the Brezhnev Stagnation. On the warld stage, Brezhnev pushed haurd for the adoption o détente, a commitment bi baith twa superpouers taewart the relaxation o Cauld War tensions an economic cooperation. Despite sic diplomatic gesturs, Brezhnev's regime presidit ower a hawkish foreign policy chairacterised bi widespreid militar interventionism an an airms bigup that ultimately compreesed 12.5% o the naition's GNP. Ultimately, in December 1981, he optit nae tae hae the Soviet militar suppress unrest in Poland tharebi merkin the end o the interventionist Brezhnev Doctrine.
Efter years o declinin heal, Brezhnev dee'd on 10 November 1982 an wis quickly succeedit in his post as General Secretar bi Yuri Andropov. Brezhnev haed fostered a cult o personality, awtho nae nearly tae the same degree as Stalin. Mikhail Gorbachev, that wad lead the USSR frae 1985 tae 1991, denoonced his legacy an drove the process o leeberalisation o the Soviet Union.

Etymologie

History
Accordin tae legend, Roum wis foondit on 21 Apryle 753 BC bi Romulus. He killt his twin brither namit Remus, wi whom he haed been raised bi a wouf, an became the first king o Roum. Efter Romulus, wha, amang ither things, creatit the Senate, thare wur, accordin tae legend, sax mair kings: Numa Pompilius, Tullo Ostilio, Anco Marzio, Tarquinius Priscus, Servius Tullius, an Tarquinius Superbus.
At the end o the age o monarchy, began the Republican era, in whilk Roum, bi wey o increasin expansion, facit several conflicts: in 390 BC, efter struggles wi neebourin fowks, the toun wis invadit bi Gauls an atween the third an seicont century AD, focht again the rival Carthage, whilk then wis fangit an malafoustert bi the Roman airmy. But anerly wi Julius Caesar in the first century BC, did the ceety began tae grow significantly, inspecially taewart the Campo Marzio, at the north o Capitol, an its domain wis stendit tae Britannia. Caesar wis niver crouned emperor, a title whilk, housomeivver, fell tae his adoptit son Octavian wha teuk the throne unner the name o Augustus.

The earliest colonists wur the Portuguese who wur followed bi the Spainyie, in the saxteent century who colonized the islands. Later the German's teuk ower an then its control passed tae the Japanese. Subsequent tae Warld War II, the island remained wi the Unitit States Govrenment till it attained unthirldom in 3 November 1986. Durin the Warld War II, the Japanese biggit an airport near the present toun. The govrenment o the Federated States o Micronesie decidit tae convert the Palikir aurie intae a toun tae hoose the central admeenistration o the islands an eventually acame the caipital ceety. It wis declared the caipital o Micronesie in 1989. US aid o US $ 15 million wis made available tae develop it intae a modren toun. Aw govrenment offices, residential hooses, an an aa the residence o the Preses o the Melanesie Islands wur biggit. It is nou the major hub o the socio-economic an admeenistration o the kintra, despite still bein a very smaa toun.
Geografie

It is the mucklest, heichest, wettest an maist scenic island o Micronesie. The caipital ceety is close tae Koloni, which is Pohnpei’s mucklest toun an wis earlier its caipital. Unnerwatter reefs are foond aw roond the coastal region o the island. Dolohmwar (Totolom) is the heichest muntain in the island which rises tae a heicht o 791 m. Palikir is surroondit bi hivily widit forest an is 10 km tae the wast o Kolonia which wis the auld caipital. It wis declared the caipital o Micronesie in 1989.

Admeenistration
Palikir is the caipital o the islands which attained a separate naitionhuid unner the Federatit States o Micronesie (FSM) in Mey o 1979. The kintra attained unthirldom on 3 November 1986 efter the US-admeenistered UN Trusteeship wis terminatit. FSM haes constitutional govrenment an operates frae Palikir, the caipital whaur the govrenment heidit bi the Preses is situatit. It entered intae the Compact o Free Association wi the US frae 3 November 1986 an intae the Amendit Compact frae Mey 2004. The kintra adoptit its Constitution on 10 Mey 1979, which is observed as a Naitional Day.
Economy
The economy o the caipital ceety is reflectit in the economic resoorces o the Micronesie Islands (600 islands an islets includin Pohnpei whaur the caipital o the islands is locatit. ) as a whole. The economy o the island is basically o subsistence fairmin an fishin (fish processin an aquacultur). Products sic as fish, bananas, black pepper, an garments are mainly exportit tae Japan. Importit items are fuid, manufactured guids, machinery an equipment an beverages. The local economy is dependent on its tropical agricultural an plantation products o copra, breadfruit, taros, betel nuts, sweet tatties, casava, tropical fruits an vegetables, trochus shells, an cacao an rice. Livestock fairming sic as pigs an poultry are raised. Fishin is an aa a major economic activity. Wi the exception o phosphates (o heich-grade), thare is minimal minin activity. Baith the ceety an the kintra are nominally independent but in fact, depend on financial support stemmin frae its Compact o Free Association wi the US. As o 2012 the inflation rate wis 2%. an the cost o livin in Palikir is reportit tae very heich in comparison wi ither places in the kintra.
The ceety itself haes commercial establishments sic as shops, bars an businesses, makin it is ane o the maist commercial ceeties o the kintra. Mony o the streets are paved an an aa hae signage. Tho thare wur 17,000 tourists in 2007 in Pohnpei, the infrastructur haes been unable tae accommodate everyane who wants tae veesit. The leasin o fishin licenses tae foreign companies, Japanese, Korean an Taiwanese, helps the economy, but the marine resoorces o the federation coud dwindle bi continuous fishin excesses. The toun contains the Palikir Elementary Schuil, a learnin resoorces centre, a friendship sports centre providit wi Cheenese investment; the govrenment biggins are locatit in a complex in the northren pairt o the toun.
