| - Pervouralsk is a city of more than 130,000 people in central Russia.
- Pervouralsk (Finn. Ykkösuralla) is a Uralican city, located in the southeast of the country, and within Southeast Uralica county, of which it is the county seat (as Yekaterinburg is within its own unitary authority). The name of the city literally means "first of the Urals," and is well-known for a monument that marks the geographical boundary between Europe and Asia. It is very close to Revda (13 km from city centre to city centre), and in fact there were at one point talks of merging the two cities, although this was scrapped before it could reach the referendum stage.

| - Pervouralsk is a city of more than 130,000 people in central Russia.
- Pervouralsk (Finn. Ykkösuralla) is a Uralican city, located in the southeast of the country, and within Southeast Uralica county, of which it is the county seat (as Yekaterinburg is within its own unitary authority). The name of the city literally means "first of the Urals," and is well-known for a monument that marks the geographical boundary between Europe and Asia. It is very close to Revda (13 km from city centre to city centre), and in fact there were at one point talks of merging the two cities, although this was scrapped before it could reach the referendum stage. Economically, Pervouralsk has a fairly diverse economy. It is Uralica's leading producer, city-wise, of both milk and dairy products, and pipes, both metallic and plastic. It also has very large silica production and refractory-manufacturing industries, as it is located close to Uralica's richest silicate deposits. Commercially, Pervouralsk is expanding rapidly in the retail sector, and wholesaling of refractory bricks is a large source of income.
