Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ukraine was a major coal-producing region in the early years of the Soviet Union, with much of the coal being used to fuel industrialization efforts. Krivoy Rog is a city in Ukraine known for its iron ore deposits, but it is not a major coal-producing region. Siberia and Kuzbas (short for the Kuzbass region) are also known for their coal production, but they are not located in the region that was most important for the Soviet Union's industrialization efforts after World War I.
