Facts about Kyrgyzstan
Kyrgyzstan is a small state in Central Asia.
1. In 1926, the capital of the state, Bishkek, was renamed in honor of the revolutionary Mikhail Frunze. The authors of this idea did not take into account that there is no “f” sound in the Kyrgyz language, and therefore the locals called the city “Prunze”.
2. On the territory of Kyrgyzstan there are the largest fruit and nut forests in the world - they cover more than 600 thousand hectares in the valley of the Arslanbob River. Legend has it that Alexander the Great, returning from a military campaign, set up camp in these forests, and then took with him the fruits and nuts that grew there. The army brought some of this provisions with them to Greece, and now these nuts are known as "walnuts".
