Wikipedia description:
Kuban (Russian and Ukrainian: Кубань; Adyghe: Пшызэ; Kabardian: Псыжь; Karachay-Balkar: Къобан; Nogai: Кобан; Abaza: Къвбина) is a historical and geographical region in the North Caucasus region of southern Russia surrounding the Kuban River, on the Black Sea between the Don Steppe, the Volga Delta and separated from the Crimean Peninsula to the west by the Kerch Strait. Krasnodar Krai is often referred to as Kuban, both officially and unofficially, although the term is not exclusive to the krai and also accommodates the republics of Adygea, Karachay-Cherkessia, and parts of Stavropol Krai.
