In 2009 the town population was listed as 104,400 persons, but by 2015 it had increased to 114,090.
Economy and population.
In 2009 the town population was listed as 104,400 persons. Denov's economy revolves around cross-border trade with Tajikistan and agriculture from the surrounding hinterland.
The climate in the valley is mild, and so the land around Denov is used successfully for producing wine, as well as growing a variety of other agricultural plants. Cross border trade with Tajikistan is another important part of the local economy.
Main sites.
Sayyid Atalik Madrasa.
Dating from the 16th century, the Sayyid Atalik Madrasa is one of the largest madrasas in Central Asia. It was described a century later by the Balkh historian Mahmund ibn-Vali in his geographical encyclopedia. From this account we know that the madrasa was initially part of a larger architectural ensemble, but the other buildings have not survived.
In the centre of the madrassa is a large building on the north-south axis, and there are arches surrounding the courtyard. The niche in the portal is unusual in that it is built on a semi-octahedron plan. There are also a series of low cupolas and some attractive ghanch decoration inside.
The Sayyid Atalik Madrasa operated as a religious school until 1935, when it was closed by the Soviets. It reopened briefly from 1991-1997, then closed for renovation. It is now classed as a historic monument rather than a religious building, and it is therefore possible for the public (including non-Muslims) to visit.
R Shreder Dendrarium.
Located  just south of Denov's centre is the R Shreder Dendrarium, an arboretum housing more than 1,000 species of native and non-native plants. The plants were collected by scientists, and also received as gifts from official visitors. As well as common trees, herbs, and flowers indigenous to Uzbekistan, the non-native species grown here range from kauchuk (natural rubber) and bamboo, to sequoia and a notable collection of persimmons.
Fortress of Yurchi.
Dating from the 10th century, the ruined Fortress of Yurchi is located 8 km from Denov on the road towards Termez. The fortress was made from mud bricks and once had an impressive tower, though not much now remains.
Kalchayan.
Kalchayan was a Graeco-Bactrian city, and it was first settled in the 4th Century BC. It is 10 km northeast of the modern settlement of Denov and was excavated in the mid 20th century by Soviet archaeologist Professor Galina Pugachenkova. Pugachenkova and her colleagues found large quantities of Kushan-era sculptures with lifelike features: the hairstyles, dress, and ethnic features of Kalchayan's ancient inhabitants are clearly depicted. These sculptures and other important archaeological finds from Kalchayan are on display at the Termez Archaeological Museum and the State Fine Art Museum in Tashkent.
Dalverzin Tepe.
Dalverzin Tepe is a major archeological site between Denov and Termez. It was founded as a fortress in a Hellenistic style, and by the 1st century BC had grown into a substantial city. Dalverzin Tepe flourished under the Kushan Empire, and some superb examples of Kushan art have been excavated from the site, including wall paintings, gold decorations, and statues.
There are also the remains of a Buddhist temple.

History.
Prior to 1923, the five states have been subject to the government of the Madras Presidency which was represented in each state by a resident usually the District Collector of a neighbouring Madras district. When in 1923, all the states were brought under the direct control of the Government of India, the individual residencies were abolished and replaced with a single unitary agency responsible to the Governor-General of India.
The agent was based in Trivandrum, the capital of Travancore. He supervised the foreign relations of the princely states and their relationship with the Central government in New Delhi.
The agency was abolished when India became independent in 1947. Between 1947 and 1950, the Madras states with the exception of Travancore and Cochin were merged with the neighbouring districts of Madras Province.

Uda (Khabarovsk Krai)

The Uda (, ) is a river in Khabarovsk Krai, in the Russian Far East. It is long, and has a drainage basin of .
Geography.
It flows into the Sea of Okhotsk near the small town Chumikan. It rises south of the eastern Stanovoy Mountains and flows east, receiving tributaries from the Stanovoys. It borders the northern side of the Dzhagdy Range. At the eastern end of the Stanovoys it receives a river "Maya" (not the other Maya) from the high country to the northwest and flows about into Uda Gulf at the southwest corner of the Sea of Okhotsk near the Shantar Islands.
History.
From the Treaty of Nerchinsk (1689) to the Treaty of Aigun (1858) its lower course was officially part of the border between Russia and China, although the border was not clearly marked and the area rarely visited. Some of Ivan Moskvitin's men reached the Uda in 1640. The local Lamuts told them of the rivers Zeya and the Amur but would not guide them inland. In 1684 some Cossacks fled from the Manchus on the Zeya, reached Udsk, and went up the Maya to Yakutsk.
Udsk Ostrog (fort) was founded in 1679, or 1659 on the left bank of the river upstream. There were suggestions to move Okhotsk south to Udsk but this was rejected because of the poor harbor and the proximity of the Chinese border. There were generally about 10 peasant families around the fort trying to produce grain and a few thin cattle, but results were poor. Sometimes seed corn had to be imported. A pood of rye flour that cost half a ruble at Irkutsk cost 8 to 10 rubles at Udsk. The population was 30 in 1690, 200 in 1800 and 164 in 1865.
Yakutsk-Udsk Track: This was an ill-defined route used to supply Udsk from Yakutsk. It was open from April to October but there was some winter travel. Its length was estimated at . It crossed the Amga River at Amginsk, the Aldan River at Kompaneisk and the Uchur River at Uchur Crossing. Pack horses were usually left at Udsk as food for sled dogs or people while the Yakut drivers returned to Yakutsk on foot or skis. In 1750 all the pack horses perished in deep snow resulting in starvation. In 1788 more than 100 horses drowned during the spring snowmelt.
