Stalingrad - the End of the World

Stalingrad is a name synonymous with great sacrifice, and as a cautionary tale -- the graveyard of ambition. Stalingrad (once and again known as Volograd) is a city in Southern Russia on the banks of the Volga River. Originally established as a trade port dominating the confluence of the Volga and Tsarytsa Rivers, the Soviets turned Stalingrad into a heavy industrial center and it became an important arsenal city.

In 1942 Stalingrad became the focal point of one of the pivotal battles of the Second World War – a battle that, but for Hitler’s ego and poor military decisions, may never have happened. Hitler originally planned to drive Army Group South into the Caucasus to seize the Soviet oil supply, but instead he drove much of it to the grave in the ruins of Stalingrad.
