History of Mordovia in faces. History of the Republic of Mordovia. Creation of Mordovian national statehood

January 10, 1930 after the transformation of the Mordovian Okrug into the Mordovian Autonomous Region. On December 20, 1934, the Mordovian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic was created. In 1990, the Supreme Council of the Mordovian ASSR adopted the Declaration on the state status of the Mordovian Republic, according to which the Mordovian ASSR was transformed into the Mordovian SSR. In January 1994, it was renamed the Republic of Mordovia.

The population of the republic is 809.9 thousand people (as of November 1, 2014).

The main nationalities living on the territory of the republic: Russians, Mordovians - Moksha and Erzya, Tatars, Ukrainians, Belarusians.

The Republic of Mordovia is an example of how a region that does not have natural resources and innovative development can develop.

The most important stage in the innovative development of the economy of Mordovia is the creation of a federal-level technology park in the field of high technology on the territory of the republic. One of its main elements is intended to be the Innovation and Production Complex, created on the basis of the Research Institute of Light Sources named after A.N. Lodygina and includes companies implementing projects related to the development of materials and electronics components and element base for information and communication technologies. One of the base sites of the technology park is Mordovian State University named after N.P. Ogarev, which received the status of a national research university. The residents of the technology park included the largest companies from Moscow, St. Petersburg and other Russian regions.

Currently, the Technopark hosts 44 resident companies in its six specializations, and more than 1,200 jobs have been created.

The Center for Nanotechnologies and Nanomaterials of the Republic of Mordovia, based in the Technopark, has formed a portfolio of projects worth almost half a billion rubles. These include five international projects with the participation of representatives from Germany, the USA, Finland and Sweden.

In 2014, Mordovia achieved the best industrial production index in the Volga region - 112%. Investments in fixed capital amounted to more than 50 billion rubles, the share of innovative products was 29% (in 2013 - 23%). The industry of Mordovia is focused on the production of knowledge-intensive, high-tech, import-substituting products.

The priority areas of investment activity are the production of cable and wire products, semiconductor devices and power converter equipment, the development of carriage building, lighting engineering, cement production, food processing industries, and the development of the production of new types of construction products and materials.

The Republic is one of the three federal subjects with the most developed agro-industrial complex. It occupies a leading position in terms of the volume of livestock and poultry production in farms of all categories per capita.

Among the main attractions of the republic are the Stepan Erzya Museum of Fine Arts, the Cathedral of St. Theodore Ushakov - the tallest religious building in the Volga region, the Sanaksar Monastery, the Mordovian National Drama Theater, the Republican United Museum of Local Lore, the national cultural center in the village of Staraya Terizmorga, the Ice Palace and the sports complex "Mordovia". Also on the territory of the republic there is the Mordovian Nature Reserve named after Smidovich.

2018 FIFA World Cup in Saransk. For this event, a football stadium with 45 thousand seats will be built in the city, and the Tavla hotel complex will be built nearby, which after completion will become a complex of residential buildings.

Football club "Mordovia" is the leader of republican football.

Among the famous natives of the republic are the sculptor Stepan Erzya (Nefedov), the artist Fedot Sychkov, the poet Alexander Polezhaev, the composer and conductor Leonid Voinov, Army General Maxim Purkaev, Hero Soviet Union, Marshal Sergei Akhromeyev, pilot, Hero of the Soviet Union Mikhail Devyatayev, cosmonaut, Hero of Russia Vladimir Dezhurov.

This article is devoted to historical events that took place on the territory of the modern Republic of Mordovia.

Primitive society on the territory of the Mordovian region[ | ]

Main article:

The western part of the Middle Volga region was inhabited in the ancient Stone Age - Paleolithic. No monuments from this time have yet been discovered on the territory of Mordovia.

The earliest settlements found date back to the Mesolithic - Middle Stone Age (9-6th millennium BC). After the glacier retreated, during the boreal climate period, the vegetation and fauna began to approach modern ones.

Mordovian region under conditions of absolute monarchy[ | ]

Reforms of Peter I. Changes in the administrative structure. Christianization of the Mordovians[ | ]

In the 18th century There were significant changes in the administrative structure of the region, which was divided between 3 provinces, 5 provinces and 6 counties. The political development of the Mordovian region in the Peter the Great era took place in line with all-Russian trends. Among the political events of the early 18th century that affected the Mordovian region was, which became the last raid of nomads into the region. According to the materials of the 3rd revision (1762-1766), the population of the region was about 334 thousand people. The Mordovians accounted for less than 25%, Russians - more than 70%, Tatars and representatives of other nationalities - about 5%. The Mordovian region was an agricultural region: 96% of the total population were peasants.

The era of palace coups. Industrial development[ | ]

During the era of Catherine II, the nobles strengthened their position in the state apparatus. Having achieved exemption from compulsory military service and strengthened police regulations in the estates, the nobility satisfied all its demands: it had the right to sell, exchange, give peasants as soldiers, dispose of their property, interfere in their personal life. The government of Catherine II tried to relieve social tension. For these purposes, the secularization of church and monastic lands was carried out, and a Legislative Commission was convened. Mordovian peasants in their orders put forward demands for the inviolability of their lands and the equality of all before the law. But Catherine II, using the beginning of the Russian-Turkish war as a pretext, dissolved the Statutory Commission. This gave additional impetus to the outbreak of a large-scale civil war (see Civil War of 1773-1775).

Beginning of the 19th century Patriotic War of 1812 Agriculture and industry[ | ]

Main article:

Territorial development by the Russian population of the Volga region at the end of the 18th - first half of the 19th century. led to the transformation of traditional Mordovian society. This period is characterized by relatively high rates of population growth - 2 times. The Erzyans and Mokshans made up a fourth of the total population (204,160 people), there were 626,162 Russians, and 40,688 Tatars. The ethno-demographic situation in the region determined the spread of the Russian peasant way of life. The administrative and judicial authorities in the region were completely subordinate to the Russian legal system.

Second half of the 19th century. - beginning of the 20th century[ | ]

Main article:

In the 2nd half of the 19th century. capitalist relations continued to develop. Their development was accelerated by bourgeois reforms (see), primarily the abolition of serfdom. “Regulations on peasants emerging from serfdom” of February 19, 1861 gave personal freedom to more than 292 thousand (39.4%) serfs, including 9.9 thousand Eryaz and Moksha and 4.4 thousand Tatar peasants However, in the process of allocating land, former serfs lost more than 13.6% of their pre-reform lands, and 13.0% were released with gift plots averaging 0.8 dessiatines per capita. The purchased land cost 3.6 times more than it was worth.

Revolutions and social conflicts of 1917[ | ]

Main article:

In the districts of the Mordovian region, the overthrow of the monarchy became known on March 1-2, 1917. This event was marked by demonstrations, rallies, and public unrest that occurred in Saransk and other district cities and was accompanied by pogroms and the arrest of government officials.

Formation began in March local authorities Provisional Government: temporary county executive committees were created (March 4-8) and temporary county commissioners were appointed (March 7-11); The police were abolished and a militia was formed. Peasant and zemstvo district congresses were convened, at which permanent executive committees were elected. The organization of all-class volost zemstvos dragged on until the fall; their role was played by the emerging bodies of peasant self-government in the form of peasant committees (March) and Soviets (May - August), elected at volost and village assemblies. At the same time, Soviets of workers, Soviets of soldiers (March - April) and Soviets of peasants (late April - early May) of deputies were created in the districts of the region; later there was a merger into the Soviets of Workers', Soldiers' and Peasants' Deputies (April - July). The first trade unions and factory committees arose. Left parties took part in the formation of the new authorities of the Provisional Government and the Soviets: the Socialist Revolutionaries and the Social Democrats.

The strong positions of the Social Revolutionaries and the weakness of the Bolsheviks led to the absence of a pronounced dual power in the region, which had a number of specific features and existed from March 1917 to March 1918. April - July 1917 (see April crisis of 1917) were noted growing popular discontent. The main and unifying issue of all the uprisings of 1917 remained the question of the division of landowners' lands. By the fall, due to the deterioration of supply to the cities and the unresolved land issue, social tension grew in the region, expressed in mass tensions.

"War Communism" and the Civil War (1918-1921)[ | ]

Main article:

In the spring and summer of 1918, on the territory of modern Mordovia, as well as in Russia as a whole, the policy of “war communism” took shape, which included a number of economic, political and social measures. An accelerated nationalization of industrial enterprises was carried out (1918), including unlicensed production, Councils of the National Economy were created, a ban was introduced on private trade, direct trade between the city and the countryside, landowners' estates and possessions of large owners were confiscated, land was redistributed between peasants on an equal basis, etc. d. As a result of the implementation of agrarian policy in the first years of Soviet power, the peasantry received about 210 thousand dessiatines of landowners', appanage, and state lands. The government created various forms of Soviet and collective land use - agricultural artels, agricultural communes, partnerships for joint cultivation of land, collective farms, state farms. However, the experience of the first Soviet and collective farms was unsuccessful, and the situation in the village continued to deteriorate; The middle peasants, wealthy peasants and kulaks had a negative attitude towards the new formations, and hunger among the poor, which began during the First World War, intensified.

In total, during the war, about 240 thousand people left Mordovia for the front.

The geography of settlement largely determines important factors in its history. Nature shapes the economic way of life, and it influences the formation of the anthropological type of the people. The Mordovian people historically developed on the territory of the Oka-Volga interfluve, in the forest-steppe zone, rich in forests and rivers, with a temperate continental climate. The main habitat for the Mordovian people was the forest; it supplied building materials, food and clothing, and served as a reliable refuge from enemies. A healthy climate and lifestyle, fertile land and forest benefits contributed to the formation of a healthy, physically strong population. The forest not only shaped the anthropological type, but also the way of life of the Mordovians, who were engaged not only in agriculture, but also in hunting, beekeeping, fur harvesting, and cattle breeding. An important factor in the formation of the anthropological type was both the food structure and the type of housing. The plant food of the Mordovians did not differ from the food of the Russians, but they consumed animal food more often, and traditionally consumed honey. Mordovian dwellings differed from Russian ones - the separate premises of houses and courtyards, and the presence of a bathhouse (an ancient invention of the Finns).

Mordovians belong to the Finno-Ugric group of the Ural race; their ancestors were subjected to Europeanization under the influence of contacts with Lithuanian, German, Slavic and other tribes. The history of the Mordovian tribes can be traced back to 1 thousand BC. And in 1 thousand AD. Mordovian tribes emerged from the Finno-Ugric community. The Moksha group settled in the southeastern lands of the Sur-Oka-Moksha interfluve, the Erzya group in the north-west. Mordovian land has always been relatively densely populated. In addition to the Mordovians, other peoples lived here, influencing the formation of its culture and economy. These were the Tatars, Chuvashs, Russians, the Mordovians and Huns invaded the land, and the Bulgarians, Khazars, Pechenegs, Polovtsy, Mongols. The largest invasion began in 1237 - the invasion of Batu's hordes, after which the Golden Horde yoke was established, interrupting natural historical development.

In the 1st, early 2nd millennium AD. The economic-cultural complex and religious worldview of the Mordovians took shape. This is evidenced by excavations in the Dubensky district (iron arrowheads, plows, sickles, grains of cultivated plants, bones of domestic horses, cows, pigs, sheep, products made of wood, clay, leather and fabrics, jewelry). With the advent of 1,000 iron tools and the emergence of surplus products, the stratification of society and the collapse of clan society took place. The clan community was replaced by the neighbor community, and early feudal relations emerged. In the context of the further development of productive forces and feudal relations, as well as under the influence of external threats at the beginning of the 2nd millennium AD. The process of formation of a single Mordovian nationality is taking place. The Mordovian epic is permeated with motifs of the common destinies of Erzi and Moksha, the inseparability of their economic and spiritual life, and glorifies Tyushtya, the leader and ruler of the Mordovian people.

At the beginning of the 2nd millennium AD. The Mordovians began to form state formations: among the Moksha - in the Moksha River basin and in the Upper Sur region, led by Prince Puresh, among the Erzi - in the Oka-Sur interfluve, led by Prince Purgas (this was even before the invasion of Batu's hordes). After the invasion, the South Mordovian lands were practically depopulated; farming there was dangerous. The lands along the Moksha and Alatyr rivers and in the Murom region were most densely populated by the Mordovians.

In the 14th century The forest-steppe strip, which included Mordovian lands, was the granary of the Horde state. Being carriers of a high agricultural culture, the Mordovians associated many religious pagan rituals with agriculture. Before the start of all agricultural work, prayers were held; the Mordovians believed in good and evil spirits. They worshiped the gods of fertility. In addition to farming, they were engaged in cattle breeding, hunting, fishing, and beekeeping.

At the end of the 14th century. The process of the Mordovian lands becoming part of the Moscow principality began. After the entry of the Mordovian lands into the Russian state, the Russian princes already stipulated the conditions of ownership and inheritance (in documents from the times of Ivan3 from 1505 and Ivan4 from 1572). The Moscow principality included in the 15th century. and Mordovian lands. The formation of the status of the Mordovian princes occurred during the period of decomposition of primitive society. The Mordovian princes had their own possessions, and they were relatively independent back in the 15-16th centuries. The expansion of Russian and Tatar princes forced them to form military squads. In 1392, the Nizhny Novgorod principality, which included the lands of the Mordovians-Erzi, became part of the Moscow principality. In 1393, Meshchera, inhabited by the Mordovians - Moksha and Erzeya, voluntarily recognized the power of Moscow. In the agreement of 1396 between the Russian princes, the Mordovians no longer appear as a political enemy, because the Mordovian princes served with them, defending Russian territory. By the 15th century the right of the supreme administrator of the Mordovian lands was appropriated by the Moscow Grand Duke, who ruled the destinies of not only the population, but local princes. So in the 15th century. Mordovian and Tatar princes became vassals of the Moscow Grand Dukes. At the end of the 15th century. The Russian state was formed, Ivan3 from 1485 began to bear the title of Grand Duke, and Ivan4 from 1547 - the title of Tsar. In the 16th century Centralized authorities - orders - emerged. The Mordovian region was governed by several orders. Gradually, the possessions of the Mordovian princes were transformed into counties. In the 16th century Mordovians lived in Murom, Nizhny Novgorod, Arzamas, Shatsky, Temnikovsky, Alatyr districts. In the 16th century The Russian state took decisive measures against the Kazan Khanate, and the Mordovians also played an active role in this. Many representatives of the Mordovians distinguished themselves in the capture of Kazan, and later participated in protecting the borders of the Russian state. Mordovians settled and moved further and further from their original territories: to Simbirsk, Saratov, Bashkir and other regions.

In the 16th-17th centuries. In Mordovia, four categories of peasants took shape: palace, state, monastic and landowner. At this time, a change occurred in the development of peasant farms of all categories. A census was carried out and certain lands were assigned to the villages. Mordovian peasants were attached to the lands recorded for them. Yasak was collected in the form of food and money, the object of taxation was land. In addition to farming and animal husbandry, peasants were engaged in fur mining, beekeeping, and trade in products. The centers of urban trade and crafts were Saransk, Temnikov, Alatyr, Arzamas, Krasnoslobodsk, Insar, Troitsk, etc. In the 17th century. trade ties with Moscow were already strengthening.

Peasant wars of the early 17th century. were caused by the aggravation of contradictions between the peasantry and the landowner, the strengthening of serfdom at the end of the 16th century. Bolotnikov's revolt in 1606-07. covered many regions of Russia, including Mordovia. The rebels occupied Alatyr, dealt with government officials, and destroyed noble estates. The struggle in the Mordovian districts became acute, and both Russians and Mordovians actively participated. Punitive measures followed from the authorities, which did not break the rebels. About a year later, in 1609, they again united into detachments and fought with government detachments. The peasant war was suppressed, but showed the strength of the masses.

The cause of Razin's peasant war of 1670-71. served as further enslavement and ever increasing taxes. The Mordovian lands in a short time ceased to be a free region, like the entire Volga region, they turned into a territory from which peasants fled from feudal oppression. Even before the uprising, the Volga region became a place of peasant unrest. In 1670, Razin’s army moved up the Volga, many peasants of Mordovia joined them, many Mordovians died in battle. The peasant war led by Razin was defeated. Punitive measures led to a reduction in the male population and the abandonment of many peasant households. The joint struggle of the Russians, Mordovians and Tatars played a role in strengthening friendly relations.

Thus, during their stay as part of Russia, the economic and legal position of Mordovian peasants and Russians became much closer. In the Mordovian lands, many nobles received land, and all categories of peasants appeared. Despite the progressive and beneficial influence of Russians on all aspects of Mordovian life and socio-economic development, the government’s policy was aimed at assimilation. With the strengthening of feudal relations and increasing oppression, peasant uprisings arose, in which the Mordovians actively participated.

Mordovians, unlike other peoples of the Volga region, do not form significant ethnic groups, but settle mixed with Russians and Tatars. Although on the territory of Mordovia the majority were single-national villages. When creating counties, ethnicity was not taken into account. Samara, Alatyr, Saransk, and Temnikov districts were formed, on the territory of which Mordovians and Russians and Tatars lived. In the 18th century The population is growing, which contributed to the transition to per capita tax collection. New settlements in the 18th century. appeared rarely, because The territory had largely already been developed. One of the reasons for the emergence of new villages was the Christianization of Gentiles, because baptized and unbaptized lived separately.

In the 18th century In the Mordovian region, such industries as distilling, potash production, metallurgy and light industry were widely represented. In the 17th and 18th centuries, despite the severity of the feudal-serf system and the strengthening of national-colonial oppression, commodity production grew rapidly in the Mordovian region, and the face of the region in the system of the all-Russian market was determined. At the same time, property differentiation grew. Social tension grew. Mordovians had extensive experience in running a diversified economy; they were distinguished by their hard work and perseverance. Mordovians, upon entering Russia, had the opportunity to join the culture in the spiritual and material sphere. This was facilitated by the mass Christianization of the Mordovians. But many were also lost religious worldviews Mordovians and many cultural values, although the language and culture were preserved.

But many religious worldviews of the Mordovians and many cultural values were also lost, although the language and culture were preserved.

The Mordovian language has acquired many borrowings during its development history, but has retained its foundation. The language belongs to the Volga branch of the Finno-Ugric group of the Uralic family. After separation from the Finno-Volga proto-language, the unified Mordovian language functioned for at least one and a half thousand years. From the second half of the 1st millennium AD. territorial dialects began to form in it, two of which Erzya and Moksha became languages. They have dialects and dialects, which is due to the dispersion of the Mordovians over a vast territory among the Russian-speaking population. Characteristic features of the Mordovians
(national qualities) - perseverance, shyness, lack of prudence, low communication skills.

By the beginning of the 20th century. The range of the Mordovian people covered the whole of Russia.
Mordovian settlements were noted in Iran and Turkey, but most lived in Nizhny Novgorod, Tambov, Penza, Simbirsk, Saratov and
Samara provinces. More than 1 million people considered Mordovian their native language
(according to the 1897 census), the number was 1.2 million. Basically, they switched from paganism to Orthodoxy. 98% of Mordovians were peasants, about 1%
- bourgeois, the rest - clergy, Cossacks, nobles and merchants.

Mordovia by the beginning of the 20th century. was a typical agricultural region of Russia. According to the 1911-1912 census. 97% are peasants. Administratively, peasants were united into rural societies and volosts. Intra-community life was regulated by democratic traditions developed by centuries of experience.
Important issues were decided by the village assembly, the headman was elected, and the sots and tens were approved (from every hundredth and tenth household). They helped the headman perform organizational, fiscal and police functions.
Basic administrative unit management in rural areas there was a volost. They were organized not along national lines, but along territorial lines. They were headed by volost elders with boards elected by the volost assembly. The volost assembly consisted of the volost administration, elders and the most prosperous peasants (one from ten households). The volost foreman was approved by the zemstvo chief and could be removed by him. The volost court resolved simple legal issues and disputes. Only the volost foreman and the clerk received a salary.

Peasant farming was quite effective without state assistance under the conditions of a feudal state. Work in it was carried out most of the day in the summer, in any weather. Peasant farming could exist only with intensive management. Winter was the time for fishing. Due to the scarcity of land, every piece of land was used, and the draft force was a horse. Economically peasant farm was unstable, because in case of bad weather conditions, crop failure occurred, and the farm went bankrupt due to the loss of livestock. To ensure a developing capitalist state economic system small individual farms, united in communities, based on the physical labor of male workers
(i.e. an extensive way of farming) became ineffective.
The economic situation of peasants was determined primarily by land ownership and land use. The former state peasants from the Russian-Mordovian and Mordovian communities were best provided with land - 8.5 acres per yard. The smallest plots were owned by Russian former landowner peasants - 4.1 dessiatines each. The supply of draft animals was good compared to most regions of Russia. The main agricultural crops were rye and oats. In the southern regions the share of wheat increased.
The population of Mordovia produced bread to support themselves and pay taxes. Commercial grain was grown on only 10% of the area; this went towards taxes. To support the family, I had to earn extra money through trades and outside work. It was impossible to provide an average level for a family through agriculture alone.

The First World War exacerbated all the socio-economic contradictions among the peasantry and this resulted in the first Russian revolution
1905-07 This resulted in Mordovian land mainly in the form of a peasant movement aimed at eliminating appanage, state, monastic and landowner landownership. There was also a national liberation aspect to the struggle - the struggle of Mordovian peasants against Russian landowners. The 1st Congress of the Peasant Union in the summer of 1905 played a major role in shaping the peasant movement into a political force. Mass protests by peasants grew, and the main force in suppressing peasant revolts was the regular army and Cossack units. The result of the first revolution was a radical change in the political situation: the noble landowners lost their predominant position, the authority of local authorities and autocracy fell, and the peasant community practically became uncontrollable.

Stolypin's agrarian reform did not achieve social goals on Mordovian soil. The poorly organized resettlement of Mordovian peasants outside their lands by 1912 caused the return of many of them, ruined, deprived of land and all means of subsistence. The crisis of the first revolution and mass uprisings turned the national consciousness of the Mordovians upside down - fear of the authorities disappeared, Russian landowners lost their influence on them. This is one of the reasons, along with socio-economic ones, that led to the revolution of 1917. After February revolution The reorganization of the management system began, volost councils were formed and committees became bodies of peasant power, but the Provisional Government was unable to subordinate them to itself.

The same socio-economic processes took place in the Mordovian region as throughout Russia. The destruction of the old administrative apparatus was not accompanied by the creation of a new one. In the fall of 1917, a new upsurge of the peasant movement began. The decision of the 2nd All-Russian Congress of Soviets to eliminate private ownership of land led to an intensification of the uprising under the leadership of peasant self-government bodies. This was a repetition of Pugachevism. Many estates were destroyed and burned, causing economic and cultural damage. But this movement could not solve all the pressing issues and satisfy the land hunger. The equal division of land often caused disputes and clashes between volosts and rural communities, often armed. The first collective farms began to emerge in 1917; by the end of 1918, their lands accounted for 7% of the total area. They were mainly attended by the poorest peasants and played an ideological rather than an economic role. After 1917, Soviet power was established in Mordovia in January-March 1918. With rare exceptions
The Soviets took power on Mordovian soil painlessly. In the spring of 1918, government bodies in the countryside began to be formed - committees of the poor and food detachments, but their creation encountered resistance from a significant part of the peasantry, and the organizations of the left Socialist Revolutionaries, who enjoyed the support of the peasants, opposed it. The presence in the countryside of parallel authorities - the Committees of Poor and the Volost Councils - caused confrontation. The committees were engaged in requisitioning grain, redistributing land and agricultural equipment, and organizing artels and communes. In those volosts where the poor committees took power into their own hands, they also performed the functions of volost councils. In the fall of 1918, a decision was made to re-elect the Soviets under the control of the Pobedy Committees and dissolve the latter. Thus, the communists created a rigid centralized control system. The Peasant Councils were under the constant control of local party cells and did not have complete independence. Mordva allowed the Bolsheviks to establish their system of power by supporting the Declaration of the Rights of the Peoples of Russia, which promised the abolition of national discrimination.

The Civil War became a real tragedy for all the peoples of Russia. In the regions of Penza and Samara, major events took place to suppress the rebellion of Czechs and Slovaks, which ended in the defeat and execution of the rebels.
The division of Chapaev, the legendary hero of the son of a Mordvin peasant, played a big role in this. His divisions included many Mordovians. On the other hand, there were also many representatives of Mordovians in the white movement. As a result of the civil war and the policy of “war communism,” the country’s productive forces were undermined. The surplus appropriation system and the dictatorship of the Bolsheviks led to a reduction in bread production, the economic incentive for the peasants disappeared with a constant and harsh policy of confiscation of surpluses. Often they were confiscated not only from the kulaks, but also from the middle peasants. In some cases, the organization of collective farms encountered resistance. But gradually the final subordination of the peasant authorities to the communist dictatorship occurs. This was facilitated not only by military force, but also by national politics - at the local level, Mordovians began to be introduced into the leadership, which had not happened before. Of course, this could not fail to find a response among the Mordovian people.

The consequences of the Civil War were a 7-fold drop in industrial production; the gross agricultural product in 1920 was only two-thirds of the pre-war level. On the territory of Mordovia, the area under crops also decreased, but the number of livestock remained intact, and landless peasants practically disappeared. In general, the negative consequences of the war on Mordovian soil turned out to be less disastrous than the average for Russia. But the most negative result was the lack of incentive for rural production in conditions of surplus appropriation and the curtailment of free trade. The political and power confrontation between the authorities and the peasantry intensified, as a result of expropriation and punitive actions. The civil war was imposed on the Mordovian people by political parties pursuing their own goals and brought numerous material and human losses. Tens of thousands of Mordovians died from fighting, epidemics and famine, but the number of Mordovians did not decrease due to the high birth rate and amounted to 1.15 million people in 1920.

In the 1920s, the task was to overcome the economic and political crisis. In 1920-21 There are powerful armed uprisings of the peasantry against the authorities on the territory of the Mordovian region. Cruel punitive actions did not produce results. At this time, the policy of “war communism” with its surplus appropriations and drought led to famine and a lack of seeds for sowing on farms. In a number of districts of the Volga region, up to 95% of peasants were starving.
Propaganda for the famine relief campaign was launched in the press, and international organizations provided great assistance. But this was not enough, mass mortality decreased only with the new harvest of 1922. The Mordovian region was in the center of a region affected by crop failure and famine, as a result of which tens of thousands of people died, in addition, the consequence was a huge negative impact on the morality and physical and psychological state of the Mordovians.

Famine and human and material losses of 1921-22. failed an attempt to restore the economy using the methods of war communism. The transition to the NEP began, which provided for: the establishment of a sound monetary system, a deficit-free budget, self-financing at enterprises, and the leasing of small and medium-sized enterprises to private individuals. Under these conditions, a new Land Code was issued, which established that lands were nationalized and the purchase and sale of land was prohibited, the word “ownership” was excluded and
- “use”. On the other hand, farmers were given the right to protect their rights to land and various forms of activity on it. The socio-political and economic situation was favorable for the development of the Mordovian people, for the restoration of vitality after the upheavals of 1917-
22 years But at the end of the 20s, the NEP began to be broken. For the first time the question of Mordovian autonomy was raised at the congress of Mordovian communists in
Samara in 1921. In 1928 after new administrative zoning
The Mordovian Okrug was formed as part of the Middle Volga region, which on January 10, 1930 was transformed into Mordovian autonomy, and on December 20, 1934 into an autonomous republic. The first leadership of Mordovia correctly assessed its potential and capabilities. And it developed a real development plan, successfully implemented in 1928-29. However, the decision of the party led by Stalin to accelerate industrialization and collectivization plunged the village into economic chaos. In addition, in the second half of the 30s, nominees with a low level of education came to leadership; not a single Mordvin remained in the leadership, which led to sabotage of national construction and the confrontation “Russians - Mordovians”, “Erzya - Moksha”, and did not create favorable conditions for socio-economic development. As a result of collectivization, repressions and executions of the 30s, the Mordovian people suffered huge losses, much greater than from the Civil War and the First World War and the famine of the 20s. This came down not only to a decrease in numbers, but also to the destruction of the centuries-old way of life of the peasantry, ideas about morality and ethics. Deportation from indigenous lands over
300 thousand people dealt a blow to the gene pool. Repressions destroyed most of the Mordovian intelligentsia. The national cadres remaining after the repressions were mainly represented by people who were disdainful of the culture and history of the Mordovians, and of the language. Mordovian autonomy not only failed to fulfill its function national development, but even slowed it down. Nevertheless, the Mordovians continued to remain one of the largest peoples of the country, living their history with dignity together with the Russians and other peoples.
The Great Patriotic War, taking a heroic part, then the restoration of the economy and the revival of national culture.

Now Mordovia is an agrarian-industrial republic within the Volga
Vyatka economic region. The engineering industries are developed: precision engineering, instrument making, lighting engineering, semiconductor production, as well as the food industry. Saransk is the capital and a major cultural and student city.

The territory of the republic is 26.2 thousand square meters. km. Number of people - 955 thousand people
(1996). More than 50 nationalities live in the republic. Mordovians make up 32.5%, Russians - 60.8%, Tatars - about 5%. The average age of the population is 37.1 years. There are 7 cities in the republic: Saransk (population: about 320 thousand), Ruzaevka, Kovylkino, Krasnoslobodsk, Ardatov, Insar, Temnikov.

NATIONAL COMPOSITION OF RUSSIA AND MORDOVIA.
There are 142 people living on the territory of the Russian Federation. Among them, Slavic peoples predominate (125 million out of 147), including the majority of Russians (82%).
R is the largest Slavic state in the world. There are 400 million Slavs in the world, 2/5 of them live in Russia. 99% of the residents of Russia have their own national-state formations, the boundaries of which coincide with the area of residence of the local population. Tatars, Chuvashs, Ukrainians, Belarusians, Mordovians, Mari Udmurts, etc. live in R. they differ in language, way of life, customs, traditions, culture, work skills, and external characteristics. But the most consistent feature is language.

Therefore, the population of R is divided into language families:
1. Indo-European (89% of the population of R): Slavic, Baltic, Germanic, Romanesque, Iranian, Armenian, Indo-Aryan.
2. North Caucasian (2.4%): Abkhaz-Adyghe, Anakh-Dagestan.
3. Ural (2%): Finno-Ugric, Samoyed, Yukaghir.
4. Altai (6.8%): Turkic (Tatar), Mongolian (Buryats, Kalmyks), Tungus-Manchu, Chukchi-Kamchadal, Eskimo-Aleut.

Currently National composition is changing. Latest census
(1989) noted the growth of residents of small and indigenous peoples of the Republic. Russians slowed down the growth rate. If in 1979 there were 84.4% Russians, then in 1989 -
81,5%.

The Mordovian people retained their population; a total of 1 million 350 thousand people lived in R (in 1926-39). In the Republic of Mordovia, Mordovians make up 32%, in the Republic of Erzyans - 160 thousand (live in the east of the republic), Mokshans - 180 thousand (live in the west). Russians in the republic make up 60%, Tatars 5%, there are Ukrainians and Chuvashs. As a result of assimilation, the native language of the Mordovians began to be lost. Russian became the language of interethnic communication.

ASSESSMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES OF MORDOVIA
There are no large deposits on the territory of Mordovia, but there are deposits of more than 10 minerals, among which construction materials are important. These are phosphorites, mineral paints, brown iron ore, slates, cement raw materials, clays, sand and sandstone, gravel, limestone. The largest deposits of marl-chalk rocks are used for cement production and are located in the east of Moscow in Chamzinsky and
Bolshebereznikovsky district. Deposits of chalk and marl are also widespread in the east of the republic. Limestones are more common in the north-west of the republic and are mined using a semi-artisanal method. For the construction and covering of roads, sandstone is used, which is found in many districts. There is especially a lot of it near Saransk, Ardatov and Bolshie Berezniki. There are many clays in M: brick, refractory, pottery, for earthenware production, etc. The most valuable ones are used in the production of bricks and are found in
Ruzaevsky district and near Saransk. Peat is of great importance; there is about
30 deposits, 2/3 concentrated in the region of the river. Moksha and Vad It is used in agriculture as fertilizer and for heating in houses and boiler houses. Oil shale is also used as fuel, small reserves of which are found in the northeast. Phosphorites, the main deposits in the Krasnoslobodsky district, are also used for local needs. Reserves of brown iron ore are small and were mined until the 20th century. Bog oak is a kind of fossil raw material used in the furniture industry. They are of interest not only in Russia, but also abroad, but there is little extraction of raw materials. Sufficient forest resources - 525 thousand hectares, covered with mixed coniferous-deciduous forests in the west and north-west of the republic. This is enough for our own forestry, forestry and wood chemical industries. The volume of logging is not large and corresponds to the natural growth of wood. These reserves of mineral resources are not enough for M and they have to be imported.

Agroclimatic and land resources. The surface topography of the republic is a plain, somewhat elevated and hilly in the south-eastern part, flat, low-lying mainly in the valleys of the Moksha River and its tributaries, in the west and north-west. 58% of land resources are lands used in agriculture. The agroclimatic conditions of M are quite favorable for the development of many agricultural sectors. The heat is sufficient for growing winter rye, spring and winter wheat, oats, potatoes, hemp, and fodder crops. Precipitation is the least stable element of climate. On average, 450-500 mm fall annually. Due to the small extent of the republic from west to east, the differences in their number across the territory are insignificant. Most of precipitation falls in the summer. Unfavorable climatic conditions include dry winds; in addition, the early autumn and late winters that occur almost every year reduce the efficiency of agricultural production. spring frosts, rainfall, etc. In general, the relative homogeneity of agroclimatic conditions indicates a great influence on the territorial organization of the agricultural republic of other components of the natural environment, primarily soils. M soils vary in fertility and correct use can produce high yields.
The soil cover is very diverse. Geographical position
M in a region with a fairly favorable temperate continental climate, a combination of fertile chernozem and lower-quality gray forest soils contributes to the development of diversified agriculture with the production of grain, potatoes, sugar beets, and large meat cattle, pigs, milk. The most typical for M soils is a combination of leached and podzolized chernozems and a complex of gray forest soils with a small distribution of soddy-podzolic soils. The most valuable are leached and podzolized chernozems, occupying more than 44% of arable land.

FEATURES OF THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ECONOMY OF MORDOVIA
The development of the lands on which the modern territory of Mordovia is located began in the 16-17 centuries. In this territory, agriculture and industrial production developed in landowner and state manufactories - cloth factories, distilleries, etc. Saransk district was poorly developed in both industry and agriculture.
The technical equipment of landowners' and peasants' households was weak, most of the work was done by hand, and livestock breeding was underdeveloped. The industry consisted of 50 semi-handicraft enterprises that processed agricultural and forestry raw materials, of which 29 were distilleries. Everything changed radically after 1917. The republic from a backward agrarian one turned into an agro-industrial one with modern industry and intensive agriculture. The leading place is occupied by industry. Modern production facilities arose in the cities of Saransk, Ruzaevka, and Kovylkino. During the Second World War, several factories were transferred to Moscow from the western regions of the country. The production of existing factories also expanded.

The development of the national economic complex M was influenced by negative factors:
. there were not enough fixed assets accumulated (industrial enterprises are mostly small, agricultural enterprises are backward),
. there was no large organizational center,
. natural conditions did not contribute to the development of production (lack of raw materials).

Positive factors: profitable EGP, availability of labor resources.
The development of the economy proceeded more slowly than in other regions of the Volga-Vyatka region.
Only by the end of 65, the cost of gross industrial output exceeded the cost of agricultural products. The industrial structure retained a large share of light and food industries.

Now there are more than 250 large industrial enterprises in the mechanical engineering, metalworking, construction materials, forest paper, woodworking, light and food industries.
Most enterprises are equipped with modern technology, automated and mechanized. Largest enterprises: Saransk Electric Bulb Plant
(the Lisma association includes a plant and a research institute), the Elektrovypryamitel plant (which has a large research base), the Saransk dump truck plant, Tsentrolit, Rezinotekhnika, Biokhimik, factories producing building materials (cement, brick, etc.).

The territorial organization of the M industry has a peculiarity - its main share is in Saransk and Ruzaevka. There is unevenness and irrationality in placement. Currently, the TPK RM continues to form. In the structure of gross industrial output, more than 50% in 1992 was accounted for by mechanical engineering and metalworking enterprises, more than 5% by construction materials, more than 6% by light products and more than 12% by food industry products. Almost 80% of enterprises are enterprises of Russian significance. Enterprises of means of production account for 80%, and enterprises producing consumer goods - 20%. Raw materials for industry are mainly imported, because There are no large deposits in the territory of M, but there are deposits of more than 10 minerals, among which construction materials (cement raw materials, clays, sand and sandstone, gravel, limestone) are important.

For the comprehensive development of industry and the entire economy of the republic, the improvement of inter-industry and intra-industry connections is important.
Now they are being formed in the conditions of economic reform.

GEOGRAPHY OF INDUSTRY OF MORDOVIA
At the beginning of the 20th century. on the territory of modern Mordovia there were about 50 small enterprises, which employed about 2 thousand people. The modern industrial structure was formed in the mid-20th century. The complex of its industries is still being expanded. In the structure of gross industrial output, more than 50% was accounted for
1992 for mechanical engineering and metalworking enterprises, more than 5% for construction materials, more than 6% for light products and more than 12% for food industry products. Almost 80% of enterprises are enterprises of Russian significance.
Enterprises of means of production make up 80%, and enterprises producing consumer goods - 20%. Raw materials for industry are mainly imported. Now in
There are more than 250 large industrial enterprises in the mechanical engineering, metalworking, construction materials, forest paper, woodworking, light and food industries. Most enterprises are equipped with modern technology, automated and mechanized.
The largest enterprises: Saransk Electric Bulb Plant (the Lisma association includes a plant and a research institute), a plant
Electric rectifier (which has a large research and development base),
Saransk dump truck plant, Tsentrolit, Rezinotekhnika, Biokhimik, factories producing building materials (cement, brick, etc.).

The territorial organization of the M industry has a peculiarity - its main share is in Saransk and Ruzaevka. There is unevenness and irrationality in placement.

Energy plays an important role in the development of industry. M does not have its own fuel, energy and hydro resources. Therefore, the energy sector operates on imported raw materials. Gas pipelines passing through M. are of great importance.
The share of gas in the fuel and energy balance is 50%. There are currently four thermal power plants in M. The problem of energy supply is very acute, the issue of building a thermal power plant is being resolved.

The leading branch of the M industry is mechanical engineering. Convenient transport and geographical location, the presence of qualified labor resources, a research base, and the lack of its own raw materials resources determined the development of non-material-intensive but labor-intensive industries here.
Electrical industry (Lisma, Electric rectifier) are located in
Saransk, branches are located in Ruzaevka, Ardatov, Temnikov, Chamzinka,
Atyuryev But in recent years, production volumes have fallen by more than 60%. The same decline is observed in other industrial sectors. Growth is observed only in industries producing consumer goods. The structure of mechanical engineering is also changing, new industries are emerging that produce complex household appliances (television plant). The automotive industry is represented by the branch
GAZ is the Saransk dump truck plant; the Saransk plants Tsentrolit and Rezinotekhnika work for this industry. Road-building machines are produced in Elkhovka. Many enterprises are engaged in the repair of automotive equipment, diesel locomotives, and agricultural equipment. Particle metallurgy is represented in
M by Tsentrolit plant. Chemistry is represented by Biokhimik (medicines) and the Rezinotekhnika plant (production of rubber products for the automotive industry). All these factories are in Saransk.

In the west of Moscow there is the only large forest chemical enterprise, the Dubitel plant (tanning extracts, rosin, turpentine, etc.).

The construction industry is developed in the east of M. It develops using its own raw materials (they produce bricks, tiles, cement, slate, asbestos pipes, etc.). The leading enterprise is Alekseevsky Cement Plant. Based on its own raw materials, its own industry has developed, producing prefabricated reinforced concrete products. There are such factories in Saransk, Ruzaevka, village. Komsosolsky. Brick production is developed everywhere. The largest are in Saransk and Ruzaevka.

The woodworking and forestry industries are the oldest. They are most common in the west and in the Alatyr region, where the main raw material base is. One of the main industries is furniture, factories in Saransk, Ichalki, at the plant
Dubitel produces particle boards for it in the village. Umet - plywood

In the village In the Temnikovsky district there is a paper industry enterprise - the Red Rose factory - which produces wallpaper.

In the value of gross output, light industry accounts for more than 6%.
This industry is represented by local industrial enterprises - garment factories, knitting factories, hemp fiber factories). The textile industry is represented by the oldest Shiringush cloth factory, the Saransk decorative fabrics factory, the Krasnoslobodskaya spinning textile factory, and the Ruzaevskaya knitting factory. These industries rely on imported raw materials.

MORDOVIA is a republic, a subject of the Russian Federation.

Most of these forests were cut down in the second half of the 19th century. There are many secondary forests with birch and aspen. In general, forestry constitutes about 25.1% of the territory of Mordovia.

The discharge of wastewater into the water bodies of Mordovia amounts to 70 million m3, including 4.6 million m3 without treatment. Most of the wastewater is discharged from Sa-ran-ska enterprises. In Su-ra, the mi-ne-ra-li-za-tion of water increased to 1.5-2.0 g/l or more, it was heavily polluted -dy r. In-sar. On 76 lakes, polluted lakes are located in coastal and water protection zones. The area of agricultural land subject to erosion is 1295.8 thousand hectares. The area of the Russian lands is 1037 hectares. You-throwers in the at-mo-sphere amount to 95.2 thousand tons, of which 64.2% from the auto-trans-port, from the station 35.8% of sources (2010).

The oldest villages (IX-VI millennium BC) on the territory of Mordovia (in the basin of the Mok-sha river) from the West with me-zo-li-ta. Researched memory-memories close to the Bu-tov-kul-tu-re. About the possibility of earlier settlements, the region allows one to talk about moving into the territory to-rii of Mordovia chopping tools from the ribs of ma-mon-ta, bones of ma-mon-tov with tsa-ra-pi-na-mi from scrapers, on-li-chie standing late-not pa-leo-li-ta on neighboring lands. In the Neo-lithic (V - first half of the 3rd millennium), the territory of Mordovia entered the area of monuments with gree-ben-cha-to-na-kol-cha -toy (close to the upper-non-Volga kul-tu-re) and yamoch-no-gre-ben-cha-toy (lya-lov-skaya kul-tu-ra and ba-lah-nin-skaya kul-tu-ra) ke-ra-mi-koy; in ene-o-li-those (mid-3rd - beginning of the 2nd millennium) - in the region of Vol-o-sov culture.

In the Bronze Age (first quarter of the 2nd millennium - 8th/7th centuries BC) a new village appeared in the region - no-si -that of the Aba-shev-kul-tu-ry, the ancient circle of Ba-la-no-vo, the log-house cult-tu-ry. They assume that they are at the top of the list. groups of ancient Indians. As a result of their contact with the local one, the late-Nya-Kov-kul-tu-ra was formed. It is replaced by the city of kul-tu-ra of the ran-no-zhe-le-no-go-ve-ka, are-al center. (mok-shan-sko-tsnin-sko-go) va-ri-an-ta ko-roy includes the ter-ri-to-ria of Mor-do-vii.

From the 1st century AD e. in the region there are no new traditions, os-ta-viv-shie An-d-re-ev-skiy chicken -gan (on the territory of Mordovia) and others. On this os-no-we developed a number of ry-za-no-ok-sky graves of kul-tu-ra, which have been there since the 5th century oh-va -you-val and the northwestern part of the territory of Mordovia (including one of the supporting monuments - Shok-shin-sky burial ground), and others groups (including memory-memories, not-in-the-medium-st-ven-but connected with the ancestors of the Mord-you). The villages and graves of the 2nd-4th centuries on the territory of Mordovia have not been practically studied, but a number of them have been found, unique for the entire zone of the Right-to-be-re-zhya Avg. In the ox way and in the eye direction (atash of the Roman ko-tel-ka with an image of a sve-va; de-tender-but-material-howl Shil-ni-kov-treasure ), there are sv-de-tel-st-va-mi-inclusion of a place in the village in the system of distant connections Zey and mi-gra-tions of the second half of the 2nd-3rd centuries. Wed. In the region in the middle - third quarter of the 1st millennium, it entered the zone of the Imen-Kov culture (on the territory of Mordovia there was also one from the supporting monuments for its study - the city of Osh-Pan-do near the village of Sai-ni-no).

IN VII-X centuries throughout the entire territory of Mordovia from the south-west, there are ancient non-Mordovan settlements leading to -ral-noe economy, mainly on fishing, hunting and so-bi-ra-tel-st-ve. Gradually, they have an increasingly large number of river water and slash-able land -de-lie. By this time, the first con-so you face with the sla-vya-na-mi and the Volga-ski-mi bul-ga-ra-mi.

In the 11th-13th centuries, the rulers of the Volga-Kama Bulgaria and the Russian princes fought for control over the lands of Mordovia. By the 11th century, a number of towns were built in the Upper Po-su-rye, where a lo- Kal-ny va-ri-ant cult-tu-ry of the Volga Bulgars with a significant Mordovian com-po-nen-tom (pa-myat-ni-ki Yulov-sko-zo-lo-ta-rev -skogo-type, s-s-st-vo-va-shie before the Mon-go-lo-Tatar con-war). In 1103, Mord-va carried the mu-ro-mo-rya-zan-sko-mu prince. Glory to the Holy Yaro-vi-chu.

In the XII-XIII centuries, new Mordovian cities appeared (“tverdi”, according to Russian let-pi-syam) with powerful for-ti-fi-fi- cationic so-or-u-zhe-mi (Wind-ray-skoe, Fedo-rov-skoe).

Among the village, you were a ca-te-go-ry of professional warriors who had horse-mounted equipment, shields and etc.; appeared in the lead with inya-zo-ra-mi and otsya-zo-ra-mi. In the conditions of the outer corner of the warehouse there was a large military union of Mordovian tribes and on its basis ve - early-state-state ob-e-di-ne-nie (according to the Hungarian missionary Julian, mid-13th century - “tsar-st- in Mord-va-nov"). One of his sub-times was the upo-mi-nae-may in the Russian let-to-pi-si “Pur-ga-so-va volost” led by Pur-ga-som. According to me, the research-do-va-te-ley, “Pur-ha-so-va-lost” for-ni-ma-la between Mok-shi and Te- shi, where were there numerous Mordovian villages (including the Sarov city - a large re-mes-len-no-tor-go-vy and, in-vi-di-mo-mu, political center). Ar-cheo-logical data sv-de-tel-st-vu-yut about the flow of these lands mainly from Er-zyan-skogo and Mok-shan-skogo on -se-le-niya, that speaks about the ethnic con-co-li-da-tion of the Mordovian people. In the 1220s, the Vladimir princes made several trips to the territory of modern Mordovia, the most significant The first of them is in “Pur-ha-so-vu volost” (1229). Another Mordovian political culture developed in the Upper and Middle Mok-sha-nye. Some researchers believe that it was headed by Pu-resh.

The political and economic development of the Mordovian people was pre-dated by the Mon-go-lo-ta-tar-vi-em . The first blow to the Mordovian lands was in 1237, in 1239 they were again subjected to destruction.

In the mid-XIII - mid-XV centuries, a significant part of the modern territory of Mordovia was part of the Golden Horde. At the beginning of the 14th century, a large administrative center of the Horde arose - the city of Mokh-shi (now not the village of Na-rov-chat, Penza region; see Na-rov-chat city -ro-di-sche), which has had its own money since 1313. In the villages, the local feudal nobility usually settled near large rivers on high, difficult-to-reach-stupid mes-tah. On one of them, Itya-kovsky city, you find a bronze fuck-ha, you owe it to faces of the zo-lo-to-or-dyn-skoy ad-mi-ni-st-ra-tsi-ey. In the second half of the 14th century, during the period between the Uso-bits in the Golden Horde, some Horde princes tried to -but on the territory of modern Mordovia there are not-for-vi-si-my ulu-sy: on Mok-she - Ta-gai, in Pri-su-rye - Se-giz-bey, in Pri-mok-sha-nye - Be-khan and others. After the marches of Ti-mu-ra at the end of the 14th century, Mokh-shi lost its significance as a for-sta Khan's power. From the middle of the 15th century, after the dispersal of the Golden Horde, these territories found themselves in the composition of the Kazan Khan-st. va.

In the 1480s, a significant part of the Mordovian lands had already become part of the Russian state. In connection with the exchange of relations with the Kazan Khan and the participation of the na-be-ha-mi but -Gai-skih bi-evs and Crimean khans of the pra-vi-te-li of the Russian state pro-vo-di-li uk-re-p-le-nie of the eastern borders. For this purpose, the construction of new cities-forests in the Mordovian outskirts (Tem-nikov) began. In 1552, about 10 thousand Mordovian warriors participated in the Russian troops against the Kazan Khan-st-va, in re-zul - That's why all the Mordovian lands became part of the Russian state.

In the region there was the introduction of a system of the general Russian military administration, which took into account official, administrative and judicial functions. Before the participation of local nobility in the quality of hundreds of hundreds, five-de-tenths was allowed . In some cases, for the management of the Mordovians, special officials were appointed: “Mordovian heads”, pri-kaz-chi-ki, etc. Okon-cha-tel-no system of the military administration has developed during the construction process -va for-sec-nyh features (including Shatsk - Ka-dom - Tem-ni-kov - Ala-tyr, second half of the 16th century; In-sar - Ate-mar - Sa-ransk - Shish-ke -ev - Tro-its-kiy island-rog, 1630-1640s), some ways of strengthening the price-tra-li-za-tion in the region of the place of management. On the war-la was carried-on for the construction of the cross-stations and for-sec; they are aware of all the power in the region. On the lands that were favored by the courtyards for their service on the line, a Russian village appeared. Warehouses of local land, while land holdings grew and increased -le-nie. Mordovian and Tatar princes were invited to military, border service, to participate in administrative management, for that they have a lot of land and money.

In the Time of Troubles, the Mordovians provided substantial support to the Second Militia of 1611-1612: in the summer of 1612, the Mordovian (according to another version - Ta-Tar) Mur-za Ba-yush led a number of Ala-Tyr Murzas, Mord-you and servants, you- I stepped against the Crimean and No-Gai ta-tars, which had broken through hundreds of lines near the river. Ala-tyr and moved to Ar-za-mas and Nizhny Novgorod. You played the battle near the village. Chu-ka-ly and in the Ar-da-tov-sky forest, Bayu-sha’s detachment was saved by the troops of the militia.

The territory of modern Mordovia in 1708-1719 was once-de-le-on between the regions of Azov (the city of Ate -mar, In-sar, Krasnaya Slo-bo-da, Sa-ransk, Tro-itsk, Shish-kee-vo) and Kazan-skoy (Tem-ni-kov) province -mi. In 1717, it was subjected to destruction during the Great Ku-ban thunderstorm of 1717, becoming the last -be-gom ko-chev-ni-kov in re-gi-on. Since 1719, it has been located between Azovskaya (since 1725 Voro-Nezhskaya), Kazanskaya and Nizhe-rodskaya gu-ber-niya-mi. The territory of the region was in the area of the Pugachev uprising of 1773-1775. As a result of the pro-ve-de-de-tion of the provincial reform of 1775, it became part of the Tambov province (1779-1928; until 1796 Tam -Bov-skoe na-st-ny-che-st-vo), Nizhe-rod-skaya province (1779-1928, until 1796 Nizhe-gorod-skoe na-me -st-ni-che-st-vo), Sim-birsk (since 1924 Ul-ya-nov-skoy) lips.

In the second half of the 18th - early 19th centuries, the right to glory became an integral part of the uk-la-da life of the Mordovians. In the 18th century, significant development reached the Tashkent production, wine production (1.5 million wines per year), including at large state factories - Bri-lovsky and Shtyr-mensky, where small metallurgical plants operate -water. In the first half of the 19th century, the state-owned Tro-its-ko-Ost-Rozh winery and the private Av-gur metal-lur arose -geical plant N.D. Ma-nu-hi-na. At the end of the 19th - beginning of the 20th centuries, the timber industry developed, its main centers were located in Spas. skom and Tem-nikov-sky district. Stimulation of the development of the timber industry for the production of lines of the Moscow-Kazan railway (1893-1902).

The first representatives of the Mordovian in-tel-gen-gen-tion appeared, from the Mordovian pro-scientist A.F. Yur-tov, one of the main lies of Mordovian literature Z.F.

At the end of 1917 - beginning of 1918, Soviet power was established on the territory of modern Mordovia. In 1918 and 1919, the Mordovian districts were located near the ron-to-voy, the nearest rear of the Eastern Front of the Red Army during the Civil War 1917-1922; in April - May 1919, the Bashkir Revolutionary Committee was located in Saransk.

A complex situation arose on the territory of modern Mordovia during the Tambov uprising of 1920-1921 under the leadership of A.S. An-to-no-va: Tem-nikovsky and Krasno-slo-bodsky districts were announced at the military station, a direct-feeding system was created in Ar-da-tovsky, Kar-sun-sky, Sa-ran-sky, In-sar-sky and Spassky districts . In 1921-1922, the re-gi-he was affected by the famine, with the outbreak of epi-de-miy ti-fa, ma -la-rii, etc.

In 1926, Mordovian counties came out on top in terms of the level of gross agricultural production in the Middle Volga region, and by 1928 the restoration of agriculture was complete. The re-birth of industry is pro-is-ho-di-lo honey-flax-but and unequally-measure-but, many without-action-st-v-v-v-sh-shie -were there any closures (including the Zu-bo-vo-Polyan-skie Chu-gu-no-li-tei-ny and l-so-saw-ny za-vo- Yes, Si-vin-sky zhe-le-zo-de-la-tel-ny plant, Tem-ni-kov-skaya fa-yan-so-vaya factory). At the same time, in the 1920-1930s, a con-serving plant, a factory, and a stump were built -bi-nat in Sa-ran-sk.

In the Middle Volga Region, on July 16, 1928, the Mordovian District was formed with its center in the city of Saransk. On January 10, 1930, the Mordovian district was transformed into the Mordovian Autonomous Okrug, on December 20, 1934 - into the Mordovian Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic.

From the late 1920s - early 1930s, forced labor of prisoners began to be actively used in the economy of Mordovia (le -so-za-go-tov-ki, le-so-pi-le-nie and railway construction-tel-st-vo). The largest la-ge-rem system of GU-LAG on the territory of Mordovia became Tem-nikovsky ITL (Tem-lag, administration in the village of Yavas ), created in 1931 (in 1948-1954, Special Camp No. 3, or Dub-rav-lag).

By the beginning of the 1940s, Mordovia became one of the main pro-iz-di-te-leys in the Volga region of ko-to-ni-na, ka-na-tov and ver-re- wok; developed a tech-stylish, pi-sche-vaya, re-ra-baty-vayu-shchaya, le-so-for-the-vi-tel-naya and de-re -in-the-working industry.

During the Great Patriotic War, naval aviation units were deployed on the territory of Mordovia; 29th, 85th, 94th and 95th separate battalion-o-ny chemical from-po-ra, reserve regiment of bro-not-on-trains, 178- and a separate communications battalion, etc., there are also 14 state pi-ta-leys located here (including 6 in Sa-ran-sk). On the territory of Mordovia there was a 326th Ro-slavl Rifle Division, funded by the population a unit of combat sa-mo-le-tov and a tank-co-column of the “Mor-dovian collective farm” have been built. In 1941, in Morzhovia there were 17 enterprises from the Ukrainian SSR, BSSR, as well as Bryansk, Kursk, Or -lov-skoy region-las-tey, etc. Bla-go-da-rya commissioning Sa-ran-skogo mechanical plant and plant "Electric- tro-you-direct-mi-tel" was laid the foundation for the subsequent development of large-scale industry Mordovian Republic-pub-li-ka pri-nya-la ok. 80 thousand people eva-kui-ro-van-no-go na-se-le-niya (including 25 thousand children under 15 years old).

In the spring of 1946, Mordovia oh-va-ti-la for-su-ha, which led to famine. The development of the industry gradually proceeded: the location of a complex of chemical and light-technical enterprises began industry, manufacturing, expansion of the construction base (Ko-vyl-kinsky plant si-li-kat-no-go kir-pi- cha and slate-water plant in the working village of Kom-so-mol-sky), the plant is being built. for-in-yes, pro-ve-de-na re-con-st-ru-tion of ka-bel-no-go, in-st-ru-ment-tal-no-go and others.
