Pobedobesie
Pobedobesie () is a pejorative term used to describe the "hyperbolic celebrations" of Victory Day in Russia. This has been dubbed the Victory Cult. Recently the term has been extended to refer to the weaponization of the legacy of World War II to justify Russia's aggressive policies and an increase of militarism, using the Soviet victory over Nazi Germany for propaganda purposes. Background The main state holiday of the Soviet Union was 7 November, the day of the October Revolution, with 9 May not being a holiday between 1948 and 1965. With the Brezhnev era, Victory Day became an important holiday partially to help legitimize the ailing Soviet system. Over time the Soviet victory in World War II replaced the October Revolution as the "story at the heart" of the Soviet Union, remaining the unifying story also in chaotic post-Soviet Russia. Propaganda and Putin Victory Day has become an even more central holiday under Russian president Vladimir Putin, who according to cri ...

1 (one, unit, unity) is a number representing a single or the only entity. 1 is also a numerical digit and represents a single unit of counting or measurement. For example, a line segment of ''unit length'' is a line segment of length 1. In conventions of sign where zero is considered neither positive nor negative, 1 is the first and smallest positive integer. It is also sometimes considered the first of the infinite sequence of natural numbers, followed by  2, although by other definitions 1 is the second natural number, following  0. The fundamental mathematical property of 1 is to be a multiplicative identity, meaning that any number multiplied by 1 equals the same number. Most if not all properties of 1 can be deduced from this.
