Join the roomMoscow é uma cidade no Condado de Fayette, Tennessee, Estados Unidos. A população era de 572 no censo de 2020. A cidade foi nomeada em homenagem a Moscou, Rússia, por seu fundador J. A. Dilliard para honrar sua esposa Alexandra, uma nativa da cidade russa, que ele conheceu em uma viagem de negócios à Rússia em 1834. Moscow, Tennessee manteve relações estreitas com a Rússia nos anos que antecederam a Guerra Civil, o que levou à sobrinha de Dilliard, Lucy Pickens nascida em La Grange, Tennessee, junto com seu marido servindo como embaixador dos EUA na Rússia e depois da secessão servindo como representante confederado ao Imperador russo durante a Guerra Civil. Moscow também é conhecida como a “Land Between Two Rivers”, devido à sua localização após o Army Corps of Engineers redirecionar as vias navegáveis, movendo o canal principal para o oeste até sua localização atual.
