==Historical reference==
Stalingrad (now Volgograd) was the site of a brutal battle during the [[World War II|Second World War]], between [[Fascism|Nazi]] [[Germany]] and the Soviet Union (now Russia). It is popularly seen as marking the easternmost mark of the German invasion. The weakening of the German army at Stalingrad- the Nazis lost over 841,000 men- would ultimately culminate in the decisive battle at Kursk, ending the German offensive into the Soviet Union and beginning the Soviet push back toward Germany.
