Text:
Крым – это полуостров в северной части Чёрного моря. Его площадь – около 26 860 км². Население примерно 2 миллиона человек.
Что касается истории Крыма, то первые поселения появились здесь в 12 веке до н.э. В разное время территорией владели готы, гунны, татары, армяне, монголы и т.д.
В 18 веке по указу императрицы Екатерины Второй Крым был включён в состав Российской империи, тогда же здесь разместился и знаменитый российский черноморский флот.
В 1920-е годы эта территория называлась Автономная Крымская Советская Социалистическая Республика в составе РСФСР. В 1950-е годы Крым передали во владение УССР. А после распада Советского Союза в 1991 году Горбачёв передал Крым Украине.

As for the history of the Crimea, the first settlements appeared here in the 12th century BC. At different times, the territory was owned by the Goths, Huns, Tatars, Armenians, Mongols, etc.
In the 18th century, under a decree from Empress Catherine II, the Crimea was included in the Russian Empire, then the famous Russian Black Sea Fleet was also housed here.
In the 1920s, this territory was called the Autonomous Crimean Soviet Socialist Republic in the RSFSR. In the 1950s the Crimea was transferred to the possession of the Ukrainian SSR. And after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991, Gorbachev «handed» Crimea to Ukraine.
