In the Middle ages — the center of Novgorod Russia and then the Novgorod land centre in the old Russian and Russian States. In 1136 it became the first free-style Republic on the territory of the feudal Russia (from now on, when after the battle at the mountain Ganoi Prince Vsevolod I of Kiev fled from the battlefield, the powers of the Prince of Novgorod was severely limited). For a period of time beginning in 1136 and ending the year 1478, when Novgorod lost (as a result of the victory of Prince of Moscow Ivan III the Great over the people of Novgorod to the Moscow-Novgorod war, 1477-1478) political autonomy, in relation to the Novgorod land, it is customary to apply the term "Novgorod Republic" (government last used the designation of Lord Novgorod the Great).

1) First of all, I want to point that I’m a very positive person, so a lot of different things make me happy. For example, music makes me happy, evening walks, reading, my mother’s smile and talking to people make me happy as well.
2) But, of course, no matter how positive I am, there are some things that can make me sad as well. For example, people’s lie make me sad or some of my big problems that I can’t solve just in a minute.
3) I do some exercises every morning and go to the gym twice a week, so I think I do about 6 hours of exercise a week and it helps me enough to stay in a good shape and be healthy.
4) I’ve helped to my friend with her family problem recently. She was arguing with her mother all the time. She told me about her situation and I gave her some really good tips on how to understand her mother and find common ground with each other.
5) I’m good at Russian language and literature because I’m fond of reading. So I think I’m kind of literate person. But I should do better in Maths and Psyhics.
