Few major human settlements exist within its borders. The largest of these settlements is Murmansk and as its name suggests it is a city on the edge of the world. It lies 2 degrees above the Arctic circle and is 108 kilometers from the Norwegian Border and 182 from the Finnish. The closest major Russian city is St Petersburg roughly 900km away. The city experiences Polar nights for roughly 40 days at a time. This means that between early December and mid January the sun does not rise. The opposite starts from the middle of May till the end of August during which the sun does not set. For an Arctic city the climate is relatively mild with peak summer temperatures averaging 12.9c in July and peak winter cold in February at -10.7c on average. This is largely a benefit of the warm North Atlantic current This means that Murmansk is the only Russian port with unrestricted and easy year round access to the North Atlantic Ocean. As a result, the port is the 4th largest in the country and is one of the main stops along the Arctic's Northeast Passage connecting Asia and Europe making Murmansk one of the most strategically important assets for Russia. In the early stages of WW1 Russia had only two harbours in its Northwest, the one in St Petersburg and Anhargelsk. With the first port blockaded and the other freezing over during winter another port was necessary. [OR6HpiLuw2s] |
