Former people
In the Russian language and culture, "former people" (Russian: Бывшие люди, romanized: byvshiye lyudi) are people who lost their high social status.

At the end of the 19th century, for Gorky, "former people" were objects of pity and compassion. With the establishment of Soviet power, "former people" in a new sense became the target of persecution.

After the October Revolution, the expression referred to people who lost their social status after the revolution: aristocracy, imperial military, bureaucracy, clergy, etc.

The grape is a cross of the Königin der Weingärten and Alphonse-lavallée table grapes, according to latest research.

Vietnamese wine is wine produced in Vietnam. The area was first cultivated for viticulture during the French colonial rule of the region in the late 19th century.

The late 20th century saw a renewed focus on the development of Vitis vinifera with the assistance of flying winemakers from regions like Australia. In 1995, a joint venture with Australian winemakers started an aggressive planting scheme to reintroduce international grape varieties like Cabernet Sauvignon and Chardonnay to land that was until recently littered with landmines left over from the Vietnam War.

Sindo was established as a separate county in 1991; previously, it had been part of Ryongch'ŏn, although it had enjoyed a brief existence as a separate county in 1967.

Pidansom
Pidansom (Korean: 비단섬, Chinese: 緋緞島: Chouduan Island) is a river island in the Yalu river in North Korea. Pidansom was developed by merging of several river islands such as Sindo Island (薪島) and Maando (馬鞍島) in the 1960s. The island is home to a fishing cooperative and is also used for agriculture.

During the Ming dynasty, Sindo was still a small hilly island, and it was assigned to the Kingdom of Korea on the map at that time. This was also recognized in the treaty between the Qing Dynasty and the Japanese colonial government. However, as sediment accumulated, Sindo was connected to the mainland. China and North Korea have a treaty, and ships can sail freely in the Yalu River. But despite this, the land ownership of the Yalu River Estuary still restricts the development of Dandong Port, causing China to build a port in Donggang City in the west.
