In 1965, the historian and orientalist Igor Vsevolodovich Mozheiko (1934–2003), known in the scientific community for his works on the history of Southeast Asia, defended his candidate's dissertation on the topic of "The Pagan State (11th–13th Centuries)", and in 1981, his doctoral dissertation on the topic of "The Buddhist Sangha and the State in Burma". Meanwhile, all Soviet teenagers (and many adults too!) were engrossed in the works of the famous science fiction writer Kir Bulychev. And only a few knew that the scientist Igor Mozheiko and the science fiction writer Kir Bulychev were one and the same person.
