human settlement in Kaspiysk Urban Okrug, Republic of Dagestan, Russia
About Kaspiysk
The city is one of the newer urban centers in Dagestan. It began in 1932 as a worker's encampment, serving the needs of the nearby naval diesel engine manufacturer, Dagdizel. At the time, it was called Dvigatelstroy (Дви́гательстро́й), based upon the Russian word for "engine". During World War II, the site grew due to the war effort, and it became a center for major arms producers. In 1947, the settlement received the status of a city, and was given its current name, reflecting its location on the shores of the Caspian Sea. The city is home to a large naval storage facility, and to machine-building factories, that produce diesel engines, electric motors, torpedoes, and other products for the Russian Navy, and other military and commercial use. At the north side of the city is a seaport. Th
