The Urals is the most industrialized zone on the planet Earth. The total industrialization of the region began with the reforms of Peter the Great, and under Catherine the Great, thanks to the Urals, the Russian Empire became the world's industrial leader. In domestic history, such a thing happened only once before - at the end of the 18th century. By that time more than two hundred mining plants had been built in the Urals. The Russian authorities managed to achieve such an outstanding result by very specific methods. The national industry, private and state, was taken out from under the laws of the empire and organized as a power within a power. A state of mining factories was built in the Urals with its own legislation and its own court, with its own bureaucratic hierarchy and its own administrative division, with its own capital - the "ideal city" Yekaterinburg.
