Bada (Bada)
Bada (Бада) is a rural locality (a selo) in Khiloksky District of Zabaykalsky Krai, Russia, located along the Khilok River. Population:
Bada was founded in 1895 as a railway station of the Trans-Siberian Railway. During the Russian Civil War in Transbaikal in 1920, the Japanese Expeditionary Troops and military formations of the Far Eastern Republic met at the Bada and Gongota stations to ensure a secure evacuation of the Japanese forces home. Prompted by the Japanese withdrawal from Eastern Siberia during summer of 1920, the Soviet troops launched a series of operations which ended in liberation of Chita and Transbaikal from the troops of ataman Grigory Semyonov in October 1920.
In the following decades Bada developed quickly and its population increased significantly in the 1960s because of the nearby construction of Bada air base.
Since the 1990s, there has been a permanent population decrease in Bada and nearby villages. The railroad is currently the only provider of employment.

The East Slavs emerged as a recognisable group in Europe between the 3rd and 8th centuries CE. The first East Slavic state, Kievan Rus', arose in the 9th century, and in 988, it adopted Orthodox Christianity from the Byzantine Empire. Rus' ultimately disintegrated, with the Grand Duchy of Moscow growing to become the Tsardom of Russia. By the early 18th century, Russia had vastly expanded through conquest, annexation, and the efforts of Russian explorers, developing into the Russian Empire, which remains the third-largest empire in history. However, with the Russian Revolution in 1917, Russia's monarchic rule was abolished and replaced by the Russian SFSR—the world's first constitutionally socialist state. Following the Russian Civil War, the Russian SFSR established the Soviet Union (with three other Soviet republics), within which it was the largest and principal constituent. At the expense of millions of lives, the Soviet Union underwent rapid industrialization in the 1930s, and later played a decisive role for the Allies of World War II by leading large-scale efforts on the Eastern Front. With the onset of the Cold War, it competed with the United States for global ideological influence; the Soviet era of the 20th century saw some of the most significant Russian technological achievements, including the first human-made satellite and the first human expedition into outer space.
