Koshekhablsky District - History

History

Koshekhablsky District was established within Azov-Black Sea Krai on December 31, 1934 as a result of the downsizing of the krai's districts. On December 7, 1956, the district was enlarged as portions of abolished Shovgenovsky District were merged into it. However, as the enlargement policy did not prove effective, the district was restored in its previous borders on March 21, 1958. On February 1, 1963, Koshekhablsky District was abolished and merged into newly created Shovgenovsky Rural District. As the new system of rural districts turned out to be inefficient as well, Koshekhablsky District was re-instated in its pre-1963 borders on January 12, 1965.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    History has neither the venerableness of antiquity, nor the freshness of the modern. It does as if it would go to the beginning of things, which natural history might with reason assume to do; but consider the Universal History, and then tell us,—when did burdock and plantain sprout first?
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)

    We don’t know when our name came into being or how some distant ancestor acquired it. We don’t understand our name at all, we don’t know its history and yet we bear it with exalted fidelity, we merge with it, we like it, we are ridiculously proud of it as if we had thought it up ourselves in a moment of brilliant inspiration.
    Milan Kundera (b. 1929)

    All history becomes subjective; in other words there is properly no history, only biography.
    Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
