Is the picture of the hammer and sickle being raised on the Reichstag the most appropriate for the history of Russia? It didn't take place in Russia, after all. Dbiv 23:12, 10 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Actually, the picture has nothing to do with the history of Russia. The picture is related to the history of the Soviet Union, World War II (Russia didn't exist any longer at this time), of Germany and of Berlin. It should certainly be replaced.

Also: The image is a fake; it was arranged after the war ended.
