On December 30, 1922, the 1st All-Union Congress of the Soviets approved the Agreement on the formation of the USSR.
🔻It was signed by the heads of delegations of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR), the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic (USSR), Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic (BSSR), and the Transcaucasian Socialist Federative Soviet Republic (ZSFSR).

Not driving at anything on the 1st of January but:
• Жир (жиры) (masc.noun)
[zhyr (zhy-ry)]
Fat
• Жирный (masc.adj.)
[zhyr-nyj]
Fat, fatty
• Жировать (imperf.)
[zhy-ra-vat']
To live in luxury, to indulge oneself
• С жиру беситься (phraseological unit)
[s zhy-ru bi-si-tsa]
SLT: To freak out with fat
To go wild with excess energy or wealth
🔻The noun жир (fat) appeared in the Russian language in the second half of the 11th century, but its meaning was completely different then.
🔻In Old Slavonic, жир meant wealth, luxury and abundance, but the fat layer that could appear as a result of this abundance was called тукъ.
🔻Moreover, it was a good omen to give a child a 'fat' name. That is why there were many names like Жирослав, Домажир, Нажир and Жирош in those days.
