it's an amazing place(beauty and knowledge). you just need to know where to go if you want to have a good time. It's overcome so many things in the huge amount of history it has, and yet is still together after all. People their are strong physically and emotionally, and will always have each others back.

Russia is one of the biggest countries of the world and is the only country with areas in Asia and Europe.
It is the largest producer of crude oil.
It was the the first communist country of the world.
Russia played vital role in the defeat of Germany and France. Both French armies of Napoleon and Hitler died in the cold climate of Moscow.
Russia led the Warsaw pact countries against the US dominated NATO.
Russian was and is a very powerful military power and could match the US in almost all fields.
Russia was the first country in the world to probe the space with its sputniks.

Russia is huge. It's not "one of the biggest countries". If Siberia were a country, it'd be the largest on Earth. I flew 6 time zones into Siberia, just to get to the center - and that was from Moscow.

I really liked Siberia. It'd be fun to go hiking or with a canoe there. Moscow was a pretty clean and functional city ten years ago. I'm not much into cities.

I'm not much into politics. I'll go if i think it's safe. So that pretty much leaves out the Middle East for me.

I should organize a road trip to Argentina.

LOL to IT networking student.

Seriously, I think they are becoming an ally which is great now that we are taking steps to put the cold war behind us. I would like more of their support in foreign policy matters of mutual interest (i.e., Iraq and Afghanistan) but overall, I think the US and Russia have made great strides in the 15 years following the dissolving of the Soviet Union.

Mr. Daaannyy!

Im part russian. I think that the country is nice, but u guys has some bad luck with the government.

We are the best!

Russia is most glorious nation on all of earth! No other nation is close to greatness of Russia, except maybe China. In near future, world will see Russia emerge as most powerful nation on planet in all sectors, even West will bow down to us (they already borrow money from us, later they will depend on Russian resources for their lifeline).

It depends if you are asking about Russia as a country and it's politics or about Russian people and their attitude.

Russia [ˈɹʌʃə] (help·info) (Russian: Россия, Rossiya), or[10] the Russian Federation (Russian: Российская Федерация?·i, Rossiyskaya Federatsiya), is a transcontinental country extending over much of northern Eurasia. It is a semi-presidential republic comprising 83 federal subjects. Russia shares land borders with the following countries (counterclockwise from northwest to southeast): Norway, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania (via Kaliningrad Oblast), Poland (via Kaliningrad Oblast), Belarus, Ukraine, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, China, Mongolia and North Korea, and is also close to the United States (Alaska) and Japan. It borders the Arctic Ocean, the Pacific Ocean, the Caspian Sea, the Baltic Sea, and the Black Sea.

At 17,075,400 square kilometres (6,592,800 sq mi), Russia is the largest country in the world, covering more than an eighth of the Earth’s land area; with 142 million people, it is the ninth largest by population.[3] It extends across the whole of northern Asia and 40% of Europe, spanning 11 time zones and incorporating a great range of environments and landforms. Russia has the world's greatest reserves of mineral and energy resources,[11] and is considered an energy superpower. It has the world's largest forest reserves and its lakes contain approximately one-quarter of the world's unfrozen fresh water.[12]

The nation's history began with that of the East Slavs. The Slavs emerged as a recognizable group in Europe between the 3rd and 8th centuries AD.[13] Founded and ruled by a noble Viking warrior class and their descendants, the first East Slavic state, Kievan Rus', arose in the 9th century and adopted Christianity from the Byzantine Empire in 988,[14] beginning the synthesis of Byzantine and Slavic cultures that defined Russian culture for the next millennium.[14] Kievan Rus' ultimately disintegrated and the lands were divided into many small feudal states. The most powerful successor state to Kievan Rus' was Moscow, which served as the main force in the Russian reunification process and independence struggle against the Golden Horde. Moscow gradually reunified the surrounding Russian principalities and came to dominate the cultural and political legacy of Kievan Rus'. By the 18th century, the nation had greatly expanded through conquest, annexation and exploration to become the Russian Empire, which was the third largest empire in history, stretching from Poland eastward to the Pacific Ocean and Alaska.

Russia established worldwide power and influence from the times of the Russian Empire to being the largest and leading constituent of the Soviet Union, the world's first and largest constitutionally socialist state and a recognized superpower. The nation can boast a long tradition of excellence in every aspect of the arts and sciences.[13] The Russian Federation was founded following the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991, but is recognized as the continuing legal personality of the Soviet Union.[15] It has one of the world's fastest growing major economies and has the world's eleventh largest GDP by nominal GDP or seventh largest by purchasing power parity with the eighth largest military budget. It is one of the five recognized nuclear weapons states and possesses the world's largest stockpile of weapons of mass destruction.[16] Russia is a permanent member of the United Nations Security Council, a member of the G8, APEC and the SCO, and is a leading member of the Commonwealth of Independent States.
