Furmanov (inhabited locality)
Furmanov is a common name for inhabited localities, primarily in Russia and other post-Soviet states, named in honor of Dmitry Furmanov, a Russian Soviet writer and revolutionary best known for his novel "Chapaev." Due to multiple localities sharing the same name, disambiguation is generally required to identify the specific settlement. These localities can range in status from towns (cities) to rural settlements like villages or hamlets. To specify a particular Furmanov, one usually needs to add the administrative region (oblast, krai, etc.) in which it is located.
For example:
- Furmanov, Ivanovo Oblast, is a town and the administrative center of Furmanovsky District in Ivanovo Oblast, Russia. This is likely the most well-known settlement bearing the name.
When encountering "Furmanov" as an inhabited locality, it is essential to determine the geographical context to accurately identify the specific place being referenced.
