The Urals region of Russia - to the Motherland. The region of the Urals in Russia became the largest area to which industrial enterprises and people were evacuated to, by the fall of 1942. It housed over 8З0 enterprises, of which some 212 went to the Sverdlovskaya oblast. The 'great transfer to the East' meant not only the move of industrial equipment. People had to be moved and received, housed and re-employed at their new home base. between July 1941 and December 1942 the Urals region accepted over 2,12 million people, of which 719 thousands went to live in the Sverdlovskaya oblast. Over 2 millions of Urals natives went to fight at the fronts of WW II. 600 thousands of them never came back.
