Russia Overview
Russia, or the Russian Federation, occupies an area of 17 million square kilometres or nearly twice the area of the United States. The shores of the country are washed by the waves of ten seas, which belong to three oceans: Atlantic, Arctic, and Pacific. The distance between the southern and the northern borders of Russia is about four thousand kilometres. Russian Federation stretches 10 thousand kilometres from west to east, equalling a quarter of the equator. Even the most modern airliners need half a day of direct flight to cover such an enormous distance. Spreading widely from west to east, the territory of Russia encompasses 11 time zones. The western and eastern borders are so distant from each other that at the time when the sun rises in the east, deep darkness of late evening comes over the western regions.
The geographical location of the country is such that the natural and climate conditions of Russia are very diverse. Russia comprises three climatic zones: the arctic, the subarctic, and the temperate zone. Winters vary from cool along the Black Sea coast to frigid in Siberia; summers vary from warm in the steppes to cool along the Arctic coast.
The population of Russia totals 148 million people (according to the 1990 census), representing over 100 nationalities and ethnic groups. That is why Russian culture is very rich and diverse. About three-fourth of Russia’s people live in urban area. Approximately 35 cities in Russia have population over 500000; Moscow and St. Petersburg being the largest cities.
