After 1825, several of the Decembrists suffered exile to Chita; thus, Chita is on occasion called the "City of Exiles." Many of the Decembrists were intellectuals and members of the middle class, and consequently their arrival had a positive effect upon the city.) <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chita,_Zabaykalsky_Krai> German National Library in VIAF, 30 March 2017 (access point: Tschita) |
