Sterlitamak is situated 130 km south of Ufa, capital city of the Bazhkortostan Republic, on the left bank of the Belaya River on its junction with the Sterlia and Ashkadar Rivers. Before 1766 it was known as a small post relay ‘Sterlitamaksky Yam’. In 1782 Sterlitamak gained the status of the central city of the Ufa Viceregency. The city got its name from the Sterlia River and from the Bashkir word ‘Tamak’ (‘throat’ or ‘river mouth’). Since 1919 till 1922 Sterlitamak was the capital city of the Bashkir Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic. When the Ishinbayskoye oil deposit was discovered, the city became one of the centres of oil-refining industry. The present-day Sterlitamak is a large centre of chemical, petrochemical and machine building industries. During the last 50 years a number of large industrial enterprises were built here, among them ‘Soda’, ‘Kauchuk’, a petrochemical and machine building works, tannery, footwear factory, clothing manufacture, food industry enterprises. There is an industrial zone in the northern part of the city. The southern part is a historical heart of Sterlitamak. Nowadays it is a mixture of single-storey houses of merchants (19th century), new residential quarters of modern multi-storey buildings and two or three-storey cottages. During the last decade Sterlitamak has become one of the most developed industrial centres not only of the Bazhkortostan Republic, but of the whole Ural region. The economic potential of the city is determined by large chemical and petrochemical enterprises ‘Soda’, ‘Kauchuk’, ‘Kaustic’, ‘Neftekhimichesky Zavod’. Due to these four Goliafs Sterlitamak received the status of the city of ‘big chemistry’. Historical dates: In 1766 Sterlitamaksky Yam was renamed to Sterlitamak. In 1782 Sterlitamak gained the status of a city. In 1919-1922 it was the capital city of the Bashkir Autonomous Soviet Socialist Republic.
