Stalingrad is now Volgograd (it sits on the Volga River)
Leningrad was St Petersburg named by Czar Peter the Great when he built it and moved the capital of Russia there.
After the revolution it was briefly named Petergrad then named after Lenin later, the capital was moved back to Moscow also.
After the fall of the Soviet government it was renamed St Petersburg again.
Moscow is still the capital of Russia today.

Stalingrad is now called Volgagrad. The city known as Leningrad was originally called St. Petersburg and has reverted to its original name since the collapse of the Soviet Union.

You really need to take a remedial spelling class.
Stalingrad is modern day Volgograd. Under the czars, it was Tsaritsyn.
Leningrad is modern day St. Petersburg. When Peter 1 (the great) founded the city, he named it St. Petersburg, but during WWI, the city's name was changed to Petrograd to avoid the Germanic burg and us the Slavic grad (city). Following the death of Lenin, the city was renamed in his honor.

It was Stalingrad, not Stalangrad or Stalengrad.
It is Volgograd today. Used to be Tsaritsyn prior to 1925.
Leningrad (not Lenongrad) was and is today St. Petersburg.
