The history of the Russian navy is the path of formation and Russian statehood. Created by Peter the Great more than three hundred years ago, the Navy has become the pride of all generations of Russians. The Russian Navy is about hard work and heroism for the glory of the Motherland, it is the fighting power of our country, a guarantee of security and national interests, but above all it is about strong-minded, indomitable and infinitely devoted to the Motherland people. Russia is rightfully proud of its naval commanders: F. F. Ushakov, M. P. Lazarev, V. A. Kornilov, P. S. Nakhimov, S. O. Makarov and many others. More than 500 islands and bays outside our country are named after remarkable Russian seafaring pioneers: S. I. Dezhnev, V. I. Bering, A. I. Chirikov, D. Ya. and H. P. Laptev, F. P. Wrangel, O. Y. Schmidt, S. I. Chelyuskin.
