The Chernobyl exclusion zone is the territory with its own laws and regulations. As a separate republic on the territory of Ukraine, covered with barbed wire. A lot of wild animals sheltered the dense forests of the woodland. There are many rivers, lakes, canals and marshes here. The cities and villages of this land were forever left in 1986 when their inhabitants were forcibly resettled to other parts of Ukraine. In abandoned houses to this day you can find things of that era, toys, posters, postcards, magazines and notebooks. In some places you can find parts of military equipment. This is a real museum of the Soviet era 

The zone of alienation is abundantly contaminated with radionuclides and dangerous elements of the periodic table, the half-life of some of them has already occurred, and some will be dangerous for more than a thousand years.
