The formerly East-Prussian city of Königsberg is known as which Russian City today?
Explanation
The formerly East Prussian city of Königsberg is known as Kaliningrad today because it was renamed after World War II, following the territory becoming part of the Soviet Union. At the end of the war, the city was heavily damaged and its German population was expelled or fled. The Soviet government annexed the region and renamed the city Kaliningrad in 1946, in honor of Mikhail Kalinin, a prominent Bolshevik leader. Kaliningrad remains an important Russian port city and enclave between Poland and Lithuania, with a distinct history and culture.
