A lot of us often think of Russia as somehow being one big, monolithic, all-Slavic country, but that isn't necessarily the case, as Russia is home to numerous different ethnic republics that may or may not be impossible to explain without starting a flame war.

To be fair to Russia throughout its history, its likely one of the most culturaly diverse nations in the world.
Even if its dominated and authority driven by the slavic Russians
Глупо говорить что доминируют руские в истории правления России . были немцы такие как Екатерина 2 которая вообще до сознательного возраста не жила в России. Как и Сталин человек не "русской" национальности они стремились создать сильное государство.
Every region of Russia has its own anthem!
Открою небольшой секрет, у каждого города, у каждой почти структуры есть свои песни, праздники. Например день пограничника 28 мая, у них классный гимн послушай! У России очень большие границы, поэтому пограничников уважают ( за их не лёгкую службу )
@@zo0m834Это правда. Я был очень удивлён, узнав, что даже у гимназии в городе Рыбница, Приднестровье есть свой гимн.
One note: many republics are heavily assimilated, meaning that, while they may be different ethnically from the Slavic Russians, they are very similar to them culturally.
@Mor Dor Chechnya is on the opposite side of the spectrum: it is the most culturally distinct republic. Most of the Caucasus is distinct, as is Tatarstan.
But then you have areas like Mari El, Udmurtia or Komi, where most of the population speaks Russian as their first language and adheres to Orthodoxy. They are Finno-Ugric which also helps (as even the Slavic Russians are very Finnicised).
As for the religion, you are forgetting about the legacy of the Soviet Union - in many areas the population has been secularised to the point that religious differences are no linger important. Again, this is not true for some regions like Chechnya, but in Buryatia for example religion is a non-issue.
@Александр Дорохов У меня довольно много знакомых из республик. Какие-нибудь коми и мордвины вообще практически неотличимы от русских, с какими-нибудь бурятами все получше, но и они сильно ассимилированы - сами мне объясняли. Есть более консервативные районы, там сохранилась традиционная бурятская культура, буддизм и т.д., а есть более русфицированные, там православие и собственно русских тоже прилично
@Mor Dor Religion really is a non-issue in Tatarstan and Bashkiria. Most muslims there don't take religion very serious, often keep it to themselves and generally don't like to talk about it.
My ex-gf was tatar and her father, a Muslim, was even drinking alcohol and eating pork, which isn't that abnormal there. Going ahead and taking Chechnya as example for all Muslims in Russia is just silly
@Mor Dor Where are you from yourself, mate? Why do you think you know more about Russian than actual Russians?
@Mor Dor Religions does not play as big role in Russia nowadays as it does in many other historically Christian nations. I know an atheist from Christian Orthodox family who married Muslim Tatar woman, and both their families had no problem with it
7:28 But Stalin himself wasn't Russian. He is even speak Russian with strong accent.

That's why ruzzian federation sends buryats, chechens, tatars etc to war with Ukraine💩💩 While it would be better if they fought against the real enemy - russia
The Nazi is awake. Buryats, Chechens, Tatars are Russia. In our beautiful rich language, there are two designations of nationality and belonging to the state. The word - Rossiya is the second designation. But since it is not in English, I say "Russia". This is our strength. In our great country, every people has the right to communicate in their native language, while in your "European", "Western", "liberal" Ukraine laws are introduced that prohibit the teaching of national minorities of their native languages. It's not just Russians. These are Romanians, Hungarians, Poles. Maybe that's why the Buryats, Chechens and Tatars are fighting for Rossiya, because they don't want Bandera's fans to come to them. I think I answered your stupid saying exhaustively. Ukraine is their enemy, not Rossiya.

made me realize how russia is even more complicated than the holy roman empire
joshua the Holy Roman Empire wasn’t that complicated they were all german and some Italians back in the early days when it actually included Rome. Russia’s history is complicated but not compared to a country like England, although it’s not as simple as, say, France
@@TheLocalLt well, my perception of what "complicated" was, is affected by my lack of understanding of some concepts, like the idea of "feudalism", so yeah for me HRE is complicated and afaik
joshua how does feudalism make the HRE complicated? It was a german speaking empire dominated by Catholics, but this led to many civil wars during the reformation and left the emperor relatively powerless in the Protestant states by the end. The only real confusing part is that other powers had holdings in the HRE, including paying tribute to the Habsburg Kaiser, but the holdings effectively operated as part of these other powers. Prussia, the only German speaking power besides the HRE, even had its capital in the part of its territory that paid tribute to the Habsburgs. But all the other hundreds of principalities paid tribute to the emperor and going against the emperor would be a cause for war, so the idea that Germany wasn’t united until 1871 is ridiculous. Germany was more united under the habsburgs than it is now! It’s just the level of centralization was low. But today’s Germany doesn’t include Austria, Switzerland, the Low Countries, the Balkans (not de jure HRE territory but ruled by the HRE), Luxembourg, and Liechtenstein. The HRE was very powerful until the 1500s, but was plagued by constant civil wars after that.
The war between the subjects of the federation is very rare in contrast to the Holy Roman Empire, so everything is much easier)
For the 900 years of its medieval history, Russia was a complicated "game of thrones".

Good video and simple explanation of the Russian geographical system and the actually very diverse groups of people, cultures and languages that exist there. And you do a great job of keeping the politics out of it! The more I started to learn about Russia the more it fascinated me and I was lucky to go during the World Cup last summer, it was the most amazing of trips, but I want to go back many times and explore different parts of the country all the way to the easternmost parts. Westerners know way too little about what the real Russia really is like. It annoys me a lot every time I do hear some far-right/nationalist group mention Russia as some sort of homogenous nationalist state and see it as some sort of "protector of the white race" when the truth is the complete opposite of that. It's the multicultural and multiethnic country that they hate, not without problems, like in Chechnya, but mostly it seems to work fine. I was in Kazan, it's really multiethnic AND multireligious. You had the mosque in Kazan in this clip, and more or less right next to it is a church.
And Russia do take in immigrants as well, just that it's mostly from the former Soviet countries in Central Asia and so on.
It's a shame we don't know more about the biggest country in the world, and one of the most powerful/influential.
No matter what we think about the leaders of Russia, I'm not getting into that either, we should learn more about it.
Dear guest, visit Dagestan someday! It is the most multinational region in Russia, located between the Caucasus Mountains and the Caspian Sea. There are UNESCO architectural sites (the town of Derbent), high-altitude old auls (settlements; as Khunzakh, Tarki, Akusha, Gunib, Kubachi, Gamsutle, Gotsatl, Akhti, Salta, Sogratle and others), the national culture of different peoples, various dishes, Caucasian dances (I can show examples on UA-cam), the beautiful Sulak canyon, the sand dune of Sary-Kum, the picturesque Khunzakh waterfall (Tobot). And the most important wealth of Dagestan is its people. They are very hospitable (this is the national custom of the Caucasian highlanders and eastern peoples), responsive, cheerful, friendly (Derbent in 2006 received the UNESCO prize as the most tolerant town in the world) and are carriers of ancient history and distinctive culture.

Kazan is the capital of Tatarstan. Tatarstan is a republic and part of Russia. It has Tatar as one of its official languages along with Russian.
Tatars are the second largest ethnic group in Russia, only falling behind Russians. Tatars are Turkic, i.e. related to Turkish, Azeri, Kazakh, Uzbec etc (though might look like Europeans or Asians or both), most are considered to be Muslims, but religion is just a cultural phenomenon, not something that governs people’s lives. And many people celebrate Christian Easter, Muslim Kurban, Anglo-American Halloween and even Hindu Holi.
Tatarstan is one of the fastest developing regions in Russia. It was the first to introduce electronic government, for example. You can interact with most of the governmental agencies with your thumb swiping your smartphone screen. Tatarstan is a huge contributor to Russian aviation, chemical, automotive and lots of other industries.
In 2013, Kazan hosted the Universiade. Unlike other cities after other major sports events like the Olympic games, Kazan manages to use the infrastructure, built for the Unicersiade, in Kazan’s daily life. Nothing’s left empty as far as I know.

Any video mentioning India has burning comment sections
More focus on the 7 states as indians are gonna watch the video anyway and we know less about them
Thanks mate! You clear many doubts about this complex country. Greetings from Chile! 🇨🇱
Блин, так мило с иностранцев в комментариях, люблю вас ❤

What if the separate republics got Independence during the collapse of the Soviet Union, I find it ironic Stalin was Georgian yet made everything Russian
Let's Travel They speak German in Austria... Your comment makes no sense. lol
@Let's Travel until the big oopsie with Hitler, most austirans thought of themselves as germans
He didn't make everything Russian that's simply not true. Modern historians can pretty much make up whatever they want about Stalin and people will believe it.
@@MrHeythere555 Exactly! People love making shit up about him
JoséTheGMan 52 1 thing I will say is Stalin did not like the Caucasian republics so he decided to deport most of the population especially people of ingushetia and Chechenya
I hope you add more languages to the translation+ nice video
I love how you show Oregon, I really love it.
The "Why is Liechtenstein not here?"-Comment killed me :D
Make a video specifically about the Uralic people and how they got to such different places as Finland and Hungary
Congratulations, u just won a new subscriber
Very interesting video.
Fun fact, Russia is so big you can fit all of Africa, half of Mars, every single football stadium in the world and at least four Russias into it at once.
You can also fit 3 United States, all of Jupiter, 20% of the Sun, 1 Australia, the non-existent state of Israel and still have some space left

Fun fact:Russia is bigger than,China,than Pacific ocean and RUSSIA IS FAST AS BIG AS VATICAN!
@@dowmont6209 Russia is also bigger than Russia
And I want to add this thing azeris live in Iran not in Azerbaijan.Azerbaijan is a Turk nation not Azeri.Stalin added this "Azeri" word due sepereting Azerbaijan and Turkey.And we always say "one nation two states" each other.
So you consider yourself a Turk?
@@dusanpavlovic5529 Yes surely
@@dusanpavlovic5529 yeah of course
Allah bless you :)
It is interesting.
Love from Dagestan ❤ (No, really, I'm from Dagestan, I'm Lezgin)
Lezgin language and Russian language are so different lol
And Dagestan is situated on the Northern Caucasus,

"For those that don't know much about history, Russia is a big, monolithic, Slavic country.
For those that do, Russia is still a big, monolithic, Slavic country, but most people just live in the Western most quarter"
Lol totally agree
Nice video!
Hi everybody from Tatarstan!
3:00 ideal choice of anthem, you picked the literal best anthem in the entire world and I could argue for months on this
I really liked it dude, I never thought that Russia had so many republics inside
I am from Tatarstan!!!
Thank you! No one talks about us!
Рехмәт🤗
Почти ВО ВСЕХ территориях, областях и краях славянское население составляет БОЛЬШИНСТВО. Вторая по численности коренное население России это Татары которых около 3 миллионов. По сравнению с другими странами Россия действительно многонациональная страна. И тем не менее каждая область, край и округ отличаются друг от друга, они не одинаковые
Выходит что тут мы имеем непрямые доказательства геноцида русней коренных народов населяющих росфедерацию.
@@user-zr6bs8kv3zНю да, во времена империи проводилась политика руссификации. Это тебя так удивляет?
@@user-zr6bs8kv3zэто как это оно так выходит, чучело? А ты в курсе, что русского населения с каждым годом все меньше, что у тебя из этого «выходит»? Может быть нас геноцидят республики?😂🤡
Ну может разница в том, что до прихода русских население Сибири было максимум 100-150 тыс. человек, а сейчас коренное население - это более 1,5 млн. человек. А в случае с Америкой: до прихода любителей демократии там было минимум 5 млн. (по подсчётам некоторых учёных даже 15 млн.), а сейчас коренное население - это в лучшем случае 2 млн. Глупо считать и сравнивать коренное население, не учитывая изначальное количество. В Сибири много людей и так быть не могло - 70% территории это тайга, да и температуры тут не американские, в южных штатах США температура зимой не опускается ниже 18°С. Кроме того, самое большое племя в США - это чероки - их осталось 300 тыс. (это при условии, что в США к коренным народам приписывают даже тех, у кого 1/16 генов от коренных народов, у нас таких русскими считают), в России же бурятов и якутов по 500 тыс., и это при том, что чероки, в отличии от якутов, живут в южных и центральных штатах, где мягкий климат и можно заниматься сельским хозяйством.
@@user-qd6oj8ck1f просто русские многочисленные и всё, никакого секрета

@@auauvirus по моему это применяется только в отношении России,это так?
@@auauvirus вот я и говорю что это калька с родины матери, но мои иностранные знакомые часто спрашивают как именно по русски звучит слово motherland. они уверены что это прямой перевод. и притом они не американцы от которых этого ожидаешь,а немцы, финны и датчане
0:11 You forgot to include those two islands as part of Estonia (as well as Kaliningrad as a part of Russia). My favorite republic within Russia is Tuva because of Tannu Tuva and all the HOI4 memes surrounding it (and their throat singing is fascinating). I also like Sakha because they're the most isolated Turkic group. I have Russian ancestry from both sides of the Urals (Siberia from my very small Native American percentage, and St. Petersburg)
I find Siberian culture interesting
Wtf is Tannu Tuva? Is it some in joke on this channel? Cause i never watched this channel before
Я также об этом подумал
The Stalin administration didn't end the cultural programs, though. Nor were non-Russians purged exclusively, Russians were purged plenty and even then purging usually just means a temporary removal from the party, not death (unless during the Yezhov and Yagoda eras, when the majority of unlawful killings and arrests occured.) Russian was set as a learning standard for all the republics to have a common tongue, and the Russian language programs of the USSR never replaced the native languages of the republics, acting only as a secondary and common tongue.
#UP
This is why I love Russia so much. There's such a great diversity of cultures, peoples, landscapes, religions, etc... So many countries in only one. But, will this hold on or will Russia one day explose like the USSR did with all those republics becoming independant. Future will tell us.
Do you mind if I write further in Russian? It just became possible to translate comments. And by the way, I immediately warn you that the translation may be incorrect, which is why the meaning of the words changes in my head.
К большому сожалению, да и этот процесс неизбежен из-за очень много этнических групп, хотя в том же СССР пытались установить Интернационализм. Распад бывает обычно, когда у народов самосознание просыпается, что произошло у украинцев, белорусов, балтии, казахов и так далее в Советском Союзе. Также в Югославии у Хорватов, боснийцев и другие тоже проснулись самосознание и они проявили резкий национализм в отличии от СССР. и Скоро тоже самое ждёт и РФ рано или поздно, башкиры и татары буквально орут чтобы их страны показывали на карте мира отдельно от России. У Чечни была попытка, но потом произошло сами знаете чего. Любая страна потерпит крах. У Украины тоже такая судьба, но это уже из-за разных взглядов население
@@SlavaZukin в СССР ничего подобного не было до начала перестройки. Людям по большей части все равно на национальные и расовые признаки, их настраивают против других людей политики и власть, которым это выгодно
Половину из республик в нутри России, у них нет границ с другими государствами. Так что даже если республики выйдут из состава РФ, то они будут зависить от России. Так как нет выхода к морям, и странам.
@@alexmiller23 Ну это уже анклав будет. Нет ничего страшного, если государства будут закрыты Россией. Швейцария тоже своего рода анклав (в плане стран ЕС) И ничего, существует себе как Швейцария :)

One of the most striking concepts I learned in my Russian Studies class is that Russia and the US are like funhouse mirror images of each other. Damn near every defining feature of one can also be applied to the other.
Russia and the United States are similar only in a device under the type of a federal state, otherwise they are diametrically different states, the United States is a state that destroyed the Indian population by genocide, while Russia, on the contrary, multiplied and educated, equalizing rights, the non-Russian population of Russia.
The United States is a state that has built its well-being on the slave labor of millions of black Africans, and Russia has built its future on equality and justice between all the peoples inhabiting Russia!
In the United States, branches of the Ku Klux Klan, the Nazis are quietly working, but in Russia you will not see this!
Like between any countries
@@SoIDubTheeUnforgiven The most relevant similarity is that both countries are considered very diverse, but simultaneously have a hegemonic culture which dominates them. They are both continent-spanning countries created through expansionism and subjugation of people already living on that land.
