human! Zagreb and Belgrade in cartoonish style
Tirana at communist Albania.
Why is there a small bunker? After the WW2 until 1985, Albania was led by Enver Hoxha, who was a participant in the guerrilla struggle and one of the founders of the Albanian Communist Party. A lot of different things about Hoxha can be said. Well, he is known for the isolationism policy and for the mass construction of bunkers in case of a possible invasion. These concrete mushrooms have become a local attraction, and you can buy their small copies in souvenir shops.
Albanian capital Tirana in folk dress. His “human name” is Fadil Bargjini.
Capital cities of Russian Central Federal District, Tula (Yevdokiya) and Kostroma (Vasilisa).
Both cities were founded in 12th century, which making them one of the oldest in European Russia. Tula is mostly known as the centre of weapons, samovars and pryaniki (or gingerbread) production. The city has changed significantly, becoming more modern. Kostroma was a major trading pier on the Volga and rich merchant city, now it is one of the main jewelry centers of Russia. It`s not so big as Tula, but still has some kind of historical importance and included in the "Golden Ring of Russia". Kostroma is also a hometown of New Year character Snegurochka.
Due to their location, these cities are closely connected with Moscow. Kostroma seems to be Moscow`s sister because of Yuri Dolgoruky`s activities here, despite the fact that recently the founding of Moscow by Prince Yuri is considered a myth.
I'm going to upload my cities humanization on Tumblr too
Here`s Ljubljana (human name - Majda) and Zagreb (Marko), year 1942. On the background there`s one of the main attractions of Zagreb - the Meštrović Pavilion with minorets. Initially, the pavilion was built in honor of the Serbian king Peter; in the Independent State of Croatia it was converted into a mosque.
