Kolyma

Deep in Russia's subarctic northeast, Kolyma draws 67 Bunkabop connections with 2370 other places across 17 topics. Nature and science lead the topic mix, followed by a substantial body of history and literature rooted in the Soviet Gulag era. The Dalstroj company ran the region as a forced-labor gold operation for over 60 years, threading connections through Siberia, Moscow, and the United States. Poet Nina Gagen-Torn spent six years in its labor camps during the Great Purge.
