Interior designer Nathan Hutchins is more used to renovating historical buildings than classic yachts. But when the owners of the 1930s yacht Marala commissioned him to undertake the boat’s extensive renovation, he couldn’t refuse.

Co-owner of British studio Muza Labs, Hutchins’s experience of heritage interiors ranges from Spanish UNESCO world heritage sites to historic buildings in London. Hutchins was first introduced to the classic yacht’s owners 20 years ago when he completed the interior on their Dutch river barge. Two decades on, Marala is his first-ever yacht.

“I recently worked on two canal barges in France and I’ve just completed a sleeper train in South America,” Hutchins told Robb Report . “I think a lot of elements of pure design are very relatable, but technically it’s been a jump. For me, it’s about finding the spirit of the place and in this case, the yacht. How the owners want to enjoy it.”

The current owners, who purchased the yacht in the summer of 2018, are only the fifth in Marala ’s 88-year history. But the modifications made over time have “interrupted the elegance” of Marala ’s original lines, says Hutchins. The owners wanted the designer to capture the spirit of the 1930s to regain its original essence.

The authenticity of the restoration, which is being carried out at Pendennis shipyard in Falmouth, UK, was aided by Hutchins’ discovery of hand drawings on the ship’s original blueprints located in the U.K.’s National Maritime Museum’s archives.

“We’ve been able to reference and reintroduce design elements using the original concepts, such as beautiful bookcases in the aft saloon,” says Hutchinson. “We discovered two original beds that had been cobbled back together that had featured softly curved corners and drawer fronts.”

Designer Hutchins had to be careful to keep the original charm and character, but also modernize the decor. During the restoration, much of the old woodwork uncovered under old layers.

Marala was built in 1931, but its would-be owner unfortunately died a month before the yacht’s delivery. This meant she was launched as number 388, the only Camper & Nicholson boat ever delivered without a name. Requisitioned by the Royal Navy in World War II, she served as HMS Evadne, successfully downing a German Heinkel III aircraft using the anti-aircraft guns mounted on her decks. Later, in the Strait of Gibraltar, she used depth charges to disable and sink a U-boat.

“When the vessel was requisitioned for war a lot of the original furniture was removed to make the boat more utilitarian,” says Hutchins. “Much of it wasn’t put back with the most love and care.” The designer said that stripping the yacht back to her bare bones has revealed original details, such as bedside tables, joinery, and a Douglas fir floor, complete with scuff marks and staple holes. “We realized straight away that we needed to keep the floor,” says Hutchins, who has complemented the existing woodwork with the introduction of American black walnut.

In 1962, Marala was bought by Hungarian businessman Robert de Balkany, who decorated the interior in a bold Savoir blue in honor of his wife Princess Maria Gabriella of the House of Savoy. He named the boat after his first two daughters, Marina and Alexandra. In her heyday Marala entertained the world’s elite, including Frank Sinatra and Salvador Dali.

In a nod to the yacht’s history, Savoir-blue will run throughout the renovated exterior, paired with anthracite and white. Two custom tenders will have the new exterior palette.  Marala ’s 1940s systems have been upgraded and integrated into the authentic design.

“A lot of this boat hasn’t been seen for decades, so there were some items that needed immediate replacement,” Nick Kearton, project manager at Pendennis, told Robb Report . “A 90-year-old vessel means you’ll find things you might not want to. But the riveted steel that has survived is in very good condition, and we were able to clean it up and preserve it.”

Other sections were modernized for more practical use. Overhangs, doorways and the fashion plates outside of the owner’s suite have been reduced. The original timber decks have been fitted with steel separation plates to protect the interior. “It’s taken about 100,000 hours of steelwork fabrication alone,” says Kearton.

For Hutchins, one of the biggest challenges was discovering Marala ’s hull was a slightly different shape than he had originally conceived. That required a redesign while in the Pendennis dry dock. “Nothing is black and white on a boat like this, and sometimes surprises are wonderful,” says Hutchins. “You pull off a panel and you find a carpenter in 1931 left signed his name in chalk. So, some of the revelations have been really interesting and reveal the history of the boat.”

Marala is scheduled for completion and delivery this November.

Step Onboard a Historic Superyacht Visited by Amelia Earhart, Salvador Dalí, and Frank Sinatra

When Nathan Hutchins was tapped to restore and redesign Marala, a historic superyacht first launched in the 1930s, the client’s design brief was simple: to respect the history of the ship. Though deceptively simple, with a past like that of  Marala ’s , it was a big ask. After her original commissioner passed away prior to the vessel’s launch, the ship was bought by Charles Richard Fairey, an aviation tycoon, and embarked on her maiden voyage in 1931. In the years following, Marala was briefly used by the Royal Navy in World War II, was passed through the hands of multiple high-profile owners—including royalty, at one point—and was frequently visited by notable guests like Amelia Earhart, Salvador Dalí, King Juan Carlos of Spain, Princess Alexandra of Kent, and Frank Sinatra. “There aren’t many classic yachts of this era that have such a rich heritage…which is why it was worthy of such an extensive restoration,” says Hutchins, who co-founded  Muza Lab , a London-based design firm specializing in hotels, superyachts , luxury developments, and private residential projects. 

During the refit, the designers wanted to open up the exteriors more, offering greater ease to take in the surrounding views. 

While the goal was clear, the details were up for interpretation. “It was a really lovely route to explore—the brief being a lot less specific than usual—it allowed us a lot of creative freedom from a design point of view,” says Hutchins. To kick things off, Muza Lab visited the National Maritime Museum to take a peek at the ship’s blueprints and better understand the original design, which was crafted by Dr. Charles Nicholson, a prominent shipbuilder of the era. “It was genuinely interesting to see the design in a way that was so authentic to its era,” Hutchins says. “There were also typewritten specs outlining the original interior fit and finish, including everything from the original fabrics and carpets used in the cabins to joinery drawings of some of the original pieces of furniture that were onboard.” 

Pops of savoy blue reference Princess Maria Gabriella of Savoy who previously owned the yacht with her husband, Robert de Balkany.

In her updated form, there are multiple nods to these origins, including waxed fabric on the walls in one of the cabins (a common feature of ships from the era), new furniture rebuilt as true to the original as possible, and timber detailing inspired by the Nicolson’s earlier design. “When discovering this incredible insight into its original features, we tried to reference those items as much as we could,” Hutching says. Of course, there are other more poetic interpretations of Marala’s history including the pops of savoy blue that define the Art Deco –inspired interiors, which reference one of the ship’s most prominent owners: Princess Maria Gabriella of Savoy and her husband Robert de Balkany .

Naturally, there were other practical details that Hutchins and the team had to incorporate to welcome the ship into this new age. Marala was upgraded with modern services and conveniences, which Hutchins says are “all very well hidden behind its beautiful authentic features.” The designers also hoped to put a greater emphasis on indoor-outdoor living, which prompted them to cut back some of the exterior’s steel and replace it with open railing. Not only did this stabilize the historic superyacht, but also removed some dated bulkiness.

The Art Deco interiors are reminiscent of the ship’s 1930s origin.

However, perhaps the most intriguing element of her design are the cabins. “ Marala has gone through so many transformations throughout the years, repeatedly reinventing herself,” Hutchins explains. “A goal of ours was to tell the story of each of these transformations through the design.” Each cabin offers a glimpse into the ship’s winding story. In room No 388, you’ll find waxed linen upholstered wall panels and a 1930s pattern woven into the carpet, a pure iteration of a cabin used when Marala was first launched. “The Evadne Cabin salutes the ship’s days in the military service when she was requisitioned for the war effort, with statement blue, purple, white and graphic print upholstery,” Hutchins says. Pleated walls inspired by seagull quills dominate The Gaviota Cabin, a reference to one of the ship’s previous owners, Arturo Lopez-Willshaw, who registered her under the name Gaviota IV ( gaviota meaning “seagull” in Spanish).

The Japan Cabin. 

The Evadne Cabin.

“For us, each individual element of the Marala is a window for those onboard to see glimpses of her past,” Hutchins concludes. “That said, like a brush stroke in a painting that builds to a whole picture, the Marala is ever-evolving and we were so happy to have a chance to create a design that not only honors the past but also nods to the current and possible future stories of the ship.”

Newly restored classic yacht MARALA embodies the spirit and character of the 1930s

Written by Rachel Kelly

The past few years has seen beautiful classic Camper & Nicholson yacht MARALA sympathetically restored by her current custodians. The first phase of the refurbishment took place in the historical yacht mecca of Malta, while the final stages have been undertaken at the UK superyacht specialist Pendennis Shipyard .

Super yacht MARALA | Beautifully restored and available for charter

Renowned London interior design studio Muza Lab was chosen by the owners to create an exquisite interior reminiscent of her original 1930s Art Deco era. Her upgraded features include classic wood panelling, silk wall coverings, parquet, brass finishings, crystal chandeliers and authentic furniture.

Authentic 1930s restoration

Her fascinating 88-year history began when she was commissioned by engineering tycoon Montague Stanley Napier from his temporary convalescence in Cannes. During her construction Napier’s health was further failing and he died the month before she was completed in February 1931. She was therefore launched simply as number 388, the only Camper & Nicholson yacht ever to be launched without a name.

Her next owner Charles Fairey christened her Evadne, after Poseidon’s daughter and she spent the pre-war years hosting the likes of Prince Olaf of Norway and Amelia Earhart among others. Fairey loaned Evadne to the war effort as was common with super yachts of the time and as HMS Evadne, she saw active service in the Straights of Gibraltar.

Wartime service as HMS Evadne

The post war years saw her regularly changing hands and name, until she was bought in 1962 and christened MARALA (combining the names of his daughters Marina and Alexandra) by Robert de Balkany. He was well known for bringing the American ‘shopping mall’ concept to Europe by building retail developments in France. He became her most tenured custodian with ownership spanning over 53 years and cruised regularly from the port of Piraeus in Greece. Notable guests during this period included Frank Sinatra, King Juan Carlos of Spain and Salvador Dali.

Bought by her current owner in 2016, her comprehensive programme of works started with painstaking examination of the original plans and in-depth research at the National Maritime Museum archives. As well as strengthening work to her hull and other technical upgrades, the team have lavished her with authentic art deco features and what the design team call ‘Gatsby-esque glamour’.

Classic deck furnishings

Classic panelling and bridge equipment

MARALA can accommodate up to 12 guests in six unparalled staterooms, the master including a private lounge area and opulent ensuite, a full beam VIP, three double and one twin suite.

Major Refit Marala from 1931

British shipyard pendennis starts the major refit of m/y marala from 1931.

Initially built by Camper & Nicholsons in 1931, the 59m MARALA receives an 18-month major restoration and technology upgrades. The yacht was in naval service during World War II and got several exterior modifications. The refit contains to remove these to keep her back close to the original look when she was launched. Although MARALA is an ancient yacht, she was 50 years under the same ownership before she appeared on the market in 2016.

The captain of the yacht comments:

“Marala’s new Owner recognised the rare opportunity to own a Camper & Nicholsons classic motor yacht but understood that her essential engineering requirements would impact her interior. With a determination to remain sympathetic to her heritage and original design, the decision was made to bring the yacht to Pendennis to complete a restoration and preserve her spirit for many years to come.”

59m classic motor yacht Marala, one of relatively few surviving yachts from her era, has a fascinating story of 1930’s elegance, German U-boats, and Hollywood glamour. Built by Camper and Nicholsons in 1931, she has had unusually few owners for her age, meaning her character, basic layout and original engines have all been preserved. However, many modifications have been made to her superstructure and interior throughout her life, most notably when she was converted for naval service during World War II. Beloved by several notable Owners, guardian of wartime naval crew and host to distinguished guests such as Salvador Dali, Frank Sinatra, and international royalty, she is now a historical icon infused with character from each era of her life.

When she came onto the market in 2016, it was for the first time in over 50 years, and her new Owner sought to have her meticulously restored. Her Captain remarked “Marala’s new Owner recognised the rare opportunity to own a Camper & Nicholsons classic motor yacht but understood that her essential structural requirements would impact her interior, meaning it would be wise to address engineering updates at the same time. With a determination to remain sympathetic to her heritage and original design, the decision was made to bring the yacht to Pendennis to complete a restoration and preserve her spirit for many years to come.”

Marala represents one of many historic restoration projects that have taken place at Pendennis. She arrived at Pendennis in mid-August 2019 on a yacht transport ship direct from Malta, having started her project there. By this stage her Captain and his team had already stripped out much of the yacht’s interior and started some engineering works.

On arrival at Pendennis the yacht was taken straight into the inner dry dock, her home for the next two and a half years, for de-storing, investigation work on her steel hull and superstructure and to start her Lloyd’s special survey. In conjunction with this activity, it was also vital for the Pendennis team to finalise the technical specification for the new systems and calculate the net space on board to sign off the yacht’s new interior with Muza Lab.

The investigation work into her steel hull and superstructure identified a significant number of areas that needed urgent attention. A comprehensive programme of fabrication, blasting and repainting commenced that resulted in the renewal of over 100 tonnes of steel, predominantly on her hull. The decision was taken to leave the hull un-faired, providing an authentic look synonymous with her heritage.

Other key external modifications included the removal of the exterior hard topped shelter and tender storage on the Owner’s aft deck to make way for an external entertainments area complete with a cinema space and Jacuzzi. In addition, it was decided that the yacht’s lines should be restored to their 1930s roots, which required the removal of the bulwarks and side deck structures that had been added in the 1950s and 60s.

A comprehensive programme of replacing all services on board was carried out, including the HVAC, air conditioning, piping and ducting, cabling power and distribution, lighting and hardware. Her auxiliary generators were fully rebuilt, whilst her emergency generator was replaced with an emergency battery system to remove the need for an emergency generator to be located on the upper decks. Marala also underwent a full rebuild of the hydraulic and original manual steering systems on board, which included a full restoration of the manual emergency steering (in place since build) on the aft main deck.

London based design house Muza Lab were commissioned to bring a new look to the décor that both respects and celebrates the 1930s spirit of the vessel. Beginning with the original design spec and blueprints from the National Maritime Museum archives, they extensively researched Marala’s history, developing an understanding of her heritage and character which they would reference throughout the design process. The designs for the guest cabins are a journey through different periods of Marala’s life, with 1930’s style waxed linen panels, nods to her time in military service, and savoy blue accents symbolising the Palace of Savoy in homage to a former Owner. The Owner’s area rich with art deco glamour, inspired by the 1930’s ocean liner, the SS Normandie.

Muza Lab explained “In her 89 years of illustrious history, several performances have graced the stage that is this grand dame, each with its curious cast of characters. It is this rich heritage, specifically the times full of optimism, of heady glamour, that we have sought to honour in our new design direction for Marala. Far from an interior restoration project, this has been about reinvigorating her 1930s spirit, preserving her aura for years to come.” And it is important to note that this restoration project was not to conceal but to enhance Marala’s features; as Muza Lab suggested “In Marala, we already had a diamond – it has been a case of repolishing it to reveal its brilliance.”

59m classic yacht Marala begins sea trials following two-year rebuild

The 59 metre classic motor yacht Marala has been spotted on sea trials in Falmouth after a "painstaking" two-year restoration project at Pendennis.

Originally built in steel by Camper and Nicholsons in 1931, Marala arrived at Pendennis' Falmouth facility in August 2019 to undergo a rigorous programme of work with the aim of restoring the yacht to her former glory.

Marala was sold in 2017, the first time in 50 years. During her lifetime, she has undergone a number of modifications, which included a conversion for naval service during the Second World War, as well as sailing beneath names such as Gaviota , Zapala and Evadne .

The focus of the restoration was to retain Marala’s original character of the 1930s era, while modernising on board systems and technology. The yard set out to restore the yacht’s profile to her original lines while carrying out a complete paint programme and refurbishment of the yacht’s teak decks.

Other work included upgrades to the yacht’s steelwork, as well as domestic and electrical systems. London design studio Muza Lab was commissioned to redesign the interior décor, as well as overhaul the guest area. Pendennis said the new interior design “respects and celebrates the 1930s spirit of the vessel”.

Speaking about the conversion, Marala’s captain said: “The extensive structural and paint works undertaken has been a major part of the project for the owners. Their passion for the yacht and this restoration project has been driven by their desire to preserve and secure Marala ’s pedigree for both themselves and future generations of classic yacht enthusiasts."

Joint managing director of Pendennis, Mike Carr, said the yard’s track record of carrying out complex restoration projects on yachts including Haida 1929 and Shamrock V has given the company “a deep respect for preserving the heritage of these yachts for generations to come.”

She was refloated in November 2021 which marked the beginning of the final phase of construction and was moved to the shipyard's wet basin facility for completion ahead of sea trials and delivery which is anticipated this summer.

Sverdlovsk Oblast

Natural resources

Early history, medieval history and russian expansion, rise of the mining-metallurgical era, soviet ural, post-soviet transition, administrative divisions, demographics, settlements, ethnic groups, chairmen of the oblast duma, chairmen of the house of representatives of the legislative assembly, economy and transportation, sister relationships, notable people, external links.

Most of the oblast is spread over the eastern slopes of the Middle and North Urals and the Western Siberian Plain . Only in the southwest does the oblast stretch onto the western slopes of the Ural Mountains .

The highest mountains all rise in the North Urals, Konzhakovsky Kamen at 1,569 metres (5,148   ft) and Denezhkin Kamen at 1,492 metres (4,895   ft) . The Middle Urals is mostly hilly country with no discernible peaks; the mean elevation is closer to 300 to 500 metres (980 to 1,640   ft) above sea level. [9] Principal rivers include the Tavda , the Tura , the Chusovaya , and the Ufa , the latter two being tributaries of the Kama .

Sverdlovsk Oblast borders with, clockwise from the west, Perm Krai , the Komi Republic , Khanty–Mansi Autonomous Okrug , Tyumen Oblast , Kurgan , and Chelyabinsk Oblasts , and the Republic of Bashkortostan .

The area is traversed by the northeasterly line of equal latitude and longitude.

Rich in natural resources, the oblast is especially famous for metals ( iron , copper , gold , platinum ), minerals ( asbestos , gemstones , talcum ), marble and coal . It is mostly here that the bulk of Russian industry was concentrated in the 18th and 19th centuries.

The area has continental climate patterns, with long cold winters (average temperatures reaching −15   °C (5   °F) to −25   °C (−13   °F) on the Western Siberian Plain) and short warm summers. Only in the southeast of the oblast do temperatures reach +30   °C (86   °F) in July.

The territory of the region has been inhabited since ancient times. Numerous sites of ancient people were discovered, dating from the Paleolithic to the Iron Age. The Upper Paleolithic includes the Garinsky site on the right bank of the Sosva river near the village of Gari , the site in the Shaitansky grotto, and the site in the Bezymyanny cave (X millennium BC). [10] [11] In 1890, the 11 thousand years old (Mesolithic) Shigir idol was discovered. [12]

A settlement and a burial ground in the Kalmatsky Brod tract are located on the right bank of the Iset river and date back to the Sarmatian time (from the 3rd century BC to the 2nd century AD). They belong to the Kalmak archaeological culture. In the Kalmatsky Brod burial ground, the skeletal skulls were strongly deformed by tight bandaging in early childhood, which indicates the penetration of steppe ethnic elements to the north. [13]

There are numerous pictograms on the Koptelovsky stone, on the Oblique stone, on the Two-eyed stone, Starichnaya, Serginskaya, the rock paintings of the Bronze Age on the Neyva River, Tagil River (villages Brekhovaya, Gaevaya, Komelskaya), rock carvings on Shaitan-Kamen on the right bank of the Rezh river tied to indigenous Ural population, possibly speakers of a Ugric language . [14] [15] The Gostkovskaya Pisanitsa refers to the Middle Ages. [12]

Before the first Russian colonists arrived to the region, it was populated by various Turkic and Ugrian tribes. By the 16th century, when the Middle Urals were under influence of various Tatar khanates, the strongest local state was the Vogul Pelym principality with its center in Pelym .

The Russian conquest of the Khanate of Kazan in the 1550s paved the way further east, which was now free from Tatar depredations (see Yermak Timofeyevich ). The first surviving Russian settlements in the area date back to the late 16th   – early 17th centuries ( Verkhoturye , 1598; Turinsk , 1600; Irbit , 1633; Alapayevsk , 1639). At that time, those small trading posts were governed under Siberian administration in Tobolsk . After the 1708 administrative reform, Verkhoturye, Pelym and Turinsk became a part of the new Siberian Governorate , in 1737 their territories were assigned to the Kazan Governorate .

During the 18th century, rich resources of iron and coal made Ural an industrial heartland of Russia. After getting control over Ural mines, the Demidov family put the region in the forefront of Russian industrialization. Yekaterinburg , Nevyansk and Tagil ironworks, founded in the 1700s to 1720s, soon joined the ranks of the major producers in Europe. Throughout the 18th and 19th century those newly founded factory towns enjoyed a status of special mining-metallurgical districts allowed to have a certain rate of financial and proprietary autonomy. During the 1781 reform middle Ural finally got its own regional administration in the form of the Perm Governorate .

When in 1812 the Russian government legalized gold digging for its citizens, Middle Ural became a center of gold mining. Entrepreneurs of the Perm Governorate also started the gold rush in West Siberia, soon Yekaterinburgers began to dominate the Russian market of precious metals and gemstones.

After the emancipation reform of 1861 , major Middle Uralian industries that were heavily dependent on serf labor entered decline, although it also allowed light industry to thrive. In 1878, Perm and Yekaterinburg were connected with a railroad, in 1888, railroads reached Tyumen , and ultimately, in 1897, Yekaterinburg joined the Trans-Siberian network . Emergence of railroad transportation helped to revitalize economy of Ural.

The Bolsheviks established their power in Yekaterinburg and Perm during the first days of the October Revolution of 1917. In early 1918 the dethroned Czar Nicholas II and his family were transferred under custody to Yekaterinburg. Local Bolsheviks decided autonomously to execute the royal family on July 17, 1918, to prevent its rescue of by the approaching White Army forces. Ten days later Yekaterinburg was captured by the Czechoslovak troops of Sergei Wojciechowski . For the next year the Anti-bolshevik forces took control over the region. On 19 August 1918, Provisional Government of Ural was formed in Yekaterinburg by a coalition of liberal and democratic socialist parties, it was supposed to serve as a buffer between the Komuch and Provisional Siberian governments. After the Kolchak coup d'état in Omsk in November 1918, the Government of Ural was disbanded.

In July 1919, in the course of the Yekaterinburg offense, Yekaterinburg and the surrounding areas were recaptured by the Red Army forces under command of Vasily Shorin . On the July 15th, the Perm Governorate was split by the Soviets and the east, for the first time in history, became a separate region, the Yekaterinburg Governorate. It was soon abolished and replaced by the Ural Oblast (1923-1934).

In the 1930s many industrial enterprises were established and built with the help of forced labour. [16] Local industry received another impetus during World War II, when important producing facilities were relocated here from the European part of Russia to safeguard them from the advancing Germans (for example, IMZ-Ural , Kamensk-Uralsky Metallurgical Works ). In the postwar period much of the region was off-limits to foreigners. It was over Sverdlovsk that the American U-2 spy plane pilot Gary Powers was shot down on May 1, 1960, while on a reconnaissance mission.

In 1979, there was an anthrax outbreak caused by an accident in a facility to develop biological weapons.

In 1993, Governor Eduard Rossel responded to perceived economic inequality by attempting to create a " Ural Republic ." Sverdlovsk led the "Urals Five" ( Kurgan Oblast , Orenburg Oblast , Perm Krai , Chelyabinsk Oblast and Sverdlovsk) in a call for greater regional power. They argued that the oblasts deserved as much power as the ethnic homeland republics . The Urals Republic Constitution went into effect on October 27, 1993. Then Russian President Boris Yeltsin dissolved the Urals Republic and the Sverdlovsk Parliament 10 days later (on November 9).

Population : 4,268,998   ( 2021 Census ) ; [5] 4,297,747   ( 2010 Russian census ) ; [17] 4,486,214   ( 2002 Census ) ; [18] 4,716,768   ( 1989 Soviet census ) . [19]

Vital statistics for 2022: [20] [21]

• Births: 39,958 (9.4 per 1,000)
• Deaths: 59,316 (13.9 per 1,000)

Total fertility rate (2022): [22] 1.56 children per woman

Life expectancy (2021): [23] Total — 68.79 years (male   — 63.72, female   — 73.80)

There were twenty-one recognized ethnic groups of more than two thousand persons each in the oblast. Residents identified themselves as belonging to a total of 148 different ethnic groups, including: [17]

• 3,684,843 Russians (90.6%);
• 143,803 Tatars (3.5%);
• 35,563 Ukrainians (0.9%);
• 31,183 Bashkirs (0.8%);
• 23,801 Mari (0.6%);
• 14,914 Germans (0.4%);
• 14,215 Azerbaijanis (0.3%);
• 13,789 Udmurts (0.3%);
• 11,670 Belarusians (0.3%);
• 11,510 Chuvash (0.26%);
• 11,501 Armenians (0.3%);
• 11,138 Tajiks (0.3%);
• 9,702 Mordovians (0.22%);
• 9,358 Uzbeks (0.2%);

232,978 people were registered from administrative databases, and could not declare an ethnicity. It is estimated that the proportion of ethnicities in this group is the same as that of the declared group. [24]

Christianity is the largest religion in Sverdlovsk Oblast. According to a 2012 survey [25] 43% of the population of Sverdlovsk Oblast adheres to the Russian Orthodox Church , 5% are nondenominational Christians (excluding Protestant churches), 3% are Muslims , 2% are Orthodox Christian believers without belonging to any Church or are members of other Orthodox churches , 1% are adherents of the Slavic native faith (Rodnovery), and 0.3% are adherents of forms of Hinduism ( Vedism , Krishnaism or Tantrism ). In addition, 36% of the population declares to be "spiritual but not religious", and 9.7% is atheist . [25]

The most important institutions of higher education include Ural Federal University , Ural State Medical University , Ural State University of Economics , Ural State Law University , Ural State Mining University and Ural State Academy of Architecture and Arts , all located in the capital Yekaterinburg.

The oblast's Charter, adopted on 17 December 1994, with subsequent amendments, establishes the oblast government. The Governor is the chief executive, who appoints the Government, consisting of ministries and departments. The Chairman of the Government, commonly referred to as the Prime Minister, is appointed with the consent of the lower house of the legislature , a process similar to the appointment of the federal Prime Minister . But the Governor cannot nominate the same candidate more than twice, yet he/she can dismiss the house after three failed attempts to appoint the Premier. [ needs update ]

The Legislative Assembly is the regional parliament of Sverdlovsk Oblast. Until 2011, it was a bicameral legislature consisting of the Oblast Duma, the lower house , and the House of Representatives, the upper house . [27] Before the reform, members of the legislature served four-year terms with half of the Duma re-elected every two years. The Duma (28   members) was elected in party lists. The 21   members of the House of Representatives were elected in single-seat districts in a first-past-the-post system. The Legislative Assembly was the first bicameral legislature outside an autonomous republic, and the first regional legislature in Russia to elect members based on both party lists and single-seat districts . As of 2021, the Legislative Assembly is a unicameral legislature with a total of 50 seats, with half of the members elected by single-mandate constituencies and the other half elected in party lists for five-year terms. [28] [29]

Compliance with the Charter is enforced by the Charter Court. The existence of such regional courts in Russia, formed and functioning outside the federal judiciary, although challenged, has been upheld and persisted successfully in most constituent members of the Federation where they were established.

Until President Putin 's reforms of 2004, the Governor was elected by direct vote for terms of four years. Eduard Rossel has been the only elected governor (first elected governor for an oblast in Russia) since 1995 (appointed in 1991 and dismissed in 1993 by President Yeltsin ), re-elected in 1999 and 2003.

Since 2012, the oblast's Governor is Yevgeny Kuyvashev .

In the 1990s, the Oblast's population was distinguished by relatively high support for parties and candidates of the right and democratic persuasion. In the 1996 presidential election, Boris Yeltsin , a native of the region who lived in Sverdlovsk until the 1980s, won over 70% of the vote. In the regional elections in 2010 in the Sverdlovsk Oblast, United Russia received minimal support relative to other regions - only 39.79% of votes. [30]

Even though it could do with modernizing, the region's industries are quite diverse. 12% of Russia's iron and steel industry is still concentrated in Sverdlovsk oblast. Iron and copper are mined and processed here, the logging industry and wood-processing are important, too.

The largest companies in the region include Ural Mining and Metallurgical Company , UralVagonZavod , Enel Russia , Nizhniy Tagil Iron and Steel Works , Federal Freight . [31]

Yekaterinburg is a prominent road, rail and air hub in the Ural region. As the economic slump subsided, several European airlines started or resumed flights to the city. These include Lufthansa , British Airways , CSA , Turkish Airlines , Austrian Airlines and Finnair . Malév Hungarian Airlines used to be among those carriers but they had to drop their flights to SVX ( IATA airport code for Sverdlovsk) after a few months.

The Alapaevsk narrow-gauge railway serves the communities around Alapayevsk .

• Bà Rịa–Vũng Tàu province , Vietnam
• Harbin , China
• Vladik Dzhabarov , Russian cyclist
• Andrey Fedyaev , Russian cosmonaut
• Yakov Sverdlov , a communist revolutionary after whom Sverdlovsk and subsequently Sverdlovsk Oblast were named.
• Church of the Purification of the Blessed Virgin Mary , a building of regional historical significance in Staropyshminsk village.
