February 11, 1945. Winston Churchill of Great Britain, Franklin Roosevelt of USA, and Josef Stalin of Russia, and their advisors met in this room to decide the post-war boundaries of Europe. In so doing, they shaped the post-modern political history of Europe. This room was the dining room in the Livadia Palace near Yalta, Crimea. Livadia was the summer home of the last Czar of Russia, Nicholas II. The palace is well-preserved and contains many historical exhibits.
