Ukraine is known as the “Breadbasket of Europe” because of its extremely fertile soil, a black soil, called Chernozem. It has the deepest metro station in the world at 105.5 meters (346 feet). The largest airplane ever built was built here. It is a country responsible for many inventions and first successes such as hard disk drives, performing the first heart mitral valve surgery, the movable frame beehive, allowing beekeepers to extract honey without harming or killing bees, the first design and production of the helicopter, and many more. It is home to a city having 1500 cafés, the most per capita of any city in the world. · 00:00 – Intro · 02:08 – Bare Bones · 03:52 – Heart of the Nation Geography/Climate through Current Political/Humanitarian Issues Find Nations of the World Podcast: Email [email protected] Website https://nations-of-the-world.captivate.fm/ (https://nations-of-the-world.captivate.fm) Patreon https://www.patreon.com/nationsoftheworld (https://www.patreon.com/nationsoftheworld) Where is this information coming from?
