More information about the video content bellow:
1. Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug – Yugra, is a federal subject of Russia (an autonomous okrug of Tyumen Oblast). It has a population of 1,532,243 as of the 2010 Census. It occupies the 3rd place in the “ranking of the socio-economic situation of Russian regions”, as well as the 2nd place in terms of the size of the economy in Russia (second only to Moscow).


2. In the period before the emergence of the Golden Horde in Eurasia , the history of the Ugra peoples through the migration processes of the “great ethnic movement” on the mainland turned out to be connected with the histories of both the Volga Bulgaria, and the Hungarians, and with the influence of the Pomeranian merchants who walked along the northern route along the Ob and Yenisei to Baikal and further to China for exotic goods.


3. Khanty-Mansiysk is a city and the administrative center of Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug. The main oil and gas region of Russia and one of the largest oil producing regions in the world.


4. The peoples native to the region are the Khanty and the Mansi, known collectively as Ob-Ugric people, but today the two groups only constitute 2.1% of the region's population. The local languages, Khanty language and Mansi language, enjoy special status in the autonomous okrug and along with their distant relative Hungarian are part of the Ugric branch of the Finno-Ugric languages. Russian remains the only official language.


5. In 2012, the majority (51%) of the oil produced in Russia came from Khanty–Mansi Autonomous Okrug, giving the region great economic importance.


6. The territory of the okrug is a vast, weakly dissected plain with absolute elevations, rarely reaching 200 m above sea level. In the west on the territory of the okrug spurs and ridges of the mountain system of the Northern and Subpolar Urals come in. This part of the territory of the okrug is characterized by low- and mid-mountain relief. The average January temperature in the district fluctuates between −18 ... −24 ° C. The lowest air temperatures (up to −62 ° C) were recorded on December 20–21, 2016 at the Bolshoi Olkhovskoye field in Beloyarsky district.


7. Archeopark is a cultural and tourist complex, a landmark of the city of Khanty-Mansiysk. It is a branch of the Khanty-Mansiysk Museum of Nature and Man.
