USA

Amerikas Forenede Stater er en føderal demokratisk republik primært beliggende i det centrale Nordamerika. Det er en union af 50 stater, 1 føderalt distrikt, og 14 territorier. Det kendes også som, mere eller mindre formelt: USA, De forenede Stater, Amerika eller Staterne. Amerikas Forenede Stater grænser mod nord op til Canada, og mod syd til Mexico. Dets territoriale farvande grænser op til Ruslands, Canadas, Bahamas’ og flere mindre landes territoriale farvande. Havene som omkredser landet er Stillehavet og Beringsstrædet mod vest, det Arktiske Hav i de nordligste dele, og Atlanterhavet, Den Mexicanske Golf og Det Caraibiske Hav i de østlige og sydøstlige områder. 48 af staterne ligger i regionen mellem Canada og Mexico, disse kaldes også de kontinentale stater. Alaska, som også nogle gange medregnes i de kontinentale stater, er adskilt fra de 48 stater beliggende imellem Canada og Mexico, og ligger i den nordvestlige del af Nordamerika. Hawaii, som er den 50. stat, ligger i Stillehavet. Hovedstaden, Washington, er sammenfaldende med Det Føderale Distrikt Columbia (Engelsk: Federal District of Columbia), som ligger imellem staterne Maryland og Virginia. USA har også diverse oversøiske territorier, deriblandt Amerikansk Samoa, Guam, Nordmarianerne, Puerto Rico og U.S. Virgin Islands. Beboerne i de oversøiske territorier har status som amerikanske statsborgere, men er ikke repræsenteret i den amerikanske regering. Amerikas Forenede Stater blev officielt grundlagt den 4. juli 1776, da Kongressen, bestående af repræsentanter for de 13 britiske kolonier, underskrev Uafhængighedserklæringen. Den amerikanske valuta, dollaren, udstedes af USA's centralbank.

Vladimir Andreevich of Serpukhov

Vladimir Andreyevich the Bold (, July 15, 1353 – 1410) was the most famous prince of Serpukhov. His monicker alludes to his many military exploits committed in the wars waged by his cousin, Dmitri Donskoi of Moscow. A grandson of Ivan Kalita, Vladimir inherited Serpukhov, Borovsk, and a third part of Moscow from his brother at the age of 5. As his cousin Dmitry of Moscow was also a child, both princes had to be tutored by the Metropolitan Alexis who arranged a treaty stipulating Vladimir's loyalty to his Muscovite cousin. Pursuant to the treaty, Vladimir helped Dmitry to fight Tver (1375), Ryazan (1385), the Livonian Knights (1379), and the Republic of Novgorod (1392). Although he married a daughter of Algirdas of Lithuania in 1371, Vladimir still loyally supported Dmitry in his struggle against the Lithuanians. In 1374, anxious to defend his capital, Vladimir built the first oaken kremlin in Serpukhov. In 1377, Vladimir sacked the Severian towns of Trubchevsk and Starodub. In the great Battle of Kulikovo (1380) Vladimir commanded cavalry which decided the Russian victory. When Tokhtamysh invaded Russia two years later, Vladimir defeated his force near Volokolamsk. It is not clear why Vladimir quarrelled with his cousin in 1388. Although they made peace the same year, Vladimir was forced to leave Serpukhov for Torzhok following Dmitry's death and enthronment of his son Vasily I. A year later, he returned to Serpukhov and concluded a treaty with Vasily, whereby he obtained the appanage towns of Volokolamsk and Rzhev. Later, he exchanged these towns for Gorodets, Uglich, and Kozelsk, while forfeiting his claims to Murom and Tarusa. Vladimir's last military campaign was to defend Moscow against the horde of Edigu in 1308. He died two years later and was interred in the Archangel Cathedral. His seven sons continued the lineage of Serpukhov princes until 1456. His granddaughter Maria of Borovsk married Vasily II and gave birth to Ivan the Great, who expelled the last princes of Serpukhov to Lithuania. The last of Vladimir's male-line descendants died in 1521. Category:Russian leaders Category:Politics of Muscovy Category:Russian royalty Category:1353 births Category:1410 deaths
