Moscow and its surrounding region represent the largest population center in Russia. This program looks at what makes this city of ten million distinctive as a great capital city, and examines Moscow’s role as the center of urban and economic development in the new Russia. Three-dimensional graphic simulations of the city allow viewers to "fly" across the landscape and into Moscow to understand its network of roads, railroads, and suburbs. In addition to looking at Moscow’s role as the seat of the government, the program visits several local businesses, including a factory, a bank, and the biggest McDonald’s in the world. (20 minutes)
