Factsheet on the city of "Maks", Russia

It should be noted that there is no official city in Russia named "Marx". There may be some confusion about the city of Engels (Энгельс), which is located in the Saratov Oblast, on the left bank of the Volga River, across the river from Saratov, and is one of the most important industrial cities in Russia, named in honor of Engels. If the name does refer to a place name associated with Marx, there is no direct equivalent in Russia, but some streets or squares may be named after Marx, such as the former "Karl Marx Street" in Moscow (now renamed). It is recommended that specific names be verified to avoid biased information.
