Minsk (Belarusian: Мінск /mʲinsk/; Russian: Минск /miɲsk/), is the capital and largest city in Belarus, situated on the
Svislach and Niamiha rivers. Minsk is also a headquarters of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). As the national capital, Minsk has a special administrative status in Belarus and is also the administrative centre of Minsk voblast (province) and Minsk raion.
The earliest references to Minsk date to the 11th century (1067). In 1242, Minsk became a part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuania, and it received its town privileges in 1499. From 1569, it was a capital of the Minsk Voivodship in the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth. It was annexed by Russia in 1793, as a consequence of the Second Partition of Poland. From 1919–1991, Minsk was the capital of the Byelorussian SSR.

Now I want to tell you something about my visit to Belarus, Hmmmm it's was really great, we met there Pasha, Jenja, Dima khabarov, another Dima and a lots of belarusian youth who are opposition of Lukashenko. So we saw the young prisoners who really love their country and don't want that Lukashenko and Russia ruled their motherland any more
So the Slogan is "Za Svobody" and the most important is "Jive Belarus"
