==Trivia==
==Historical Reference==
Stalingrad (now [[Wikipedia:Volgograd|Volgograd]]) was the site of a brutal battle during the Second World War in which over a million lives were lost, giving it the nickname "The Bloody Cauldron", popularly seen as marking the easternmost mark of the German invasion and the turning point of the war on the eastern front. The weakening of the German army at Stalingrad would ultimately culminate in the decisive battle at Kursk.
