'''Kremlin''' means 'citadel' in [[Russian language|Russian]]; there are Kremlins in many Russian cities but the term almost invariably refers to the Kremlin in [[Moscow]], which since the Russian capital moved to that city in 1918 has been the secretive center of government of the [[Soviet Union]] and, since 1991, of the [[Russian Federation]]. The term is also used to refer to the Russian government, much as [[Downing Street]] is shorthand for the British government, the [[Elysee Palace]] for the French government, and the [[White House]] for the American government.
