When in Moscow, watch out for the government (and not-so-government) luxobarges that like to drive on the opposite side of the road at triple digit speeds. Sphincter clenchingly terrifying, and makes Russian roulette look like a kindergarten game.

2)Russian technology propells US Atlas carrier vehicles and in effect, puts many of US payloads into the orbit, including military.

A really big and very cool country in the east. Managed to crush the Nazi occupation force after a decisive tank battle in the fields of Kursk.
Currently fighting those damn rebels, as of yet they are the only country to do anything effective to fight global terrorism. They pwned the bastards.
Russia has given birth to all sorts of cool stuff, Vodka, the t-32 battle tank, the ak47 and kossack hats.

Russia is the largest country in the world that stretches from the Baltic sea to the Pacific ocean in the east. Today it covers an Area 17 075 200 sq.km. since the collapse of the Soviet Union and has a population of 144 million people. Also had the 3rd largest empire(after the British and Mongol empire) in the world which covered a land size of 22 400 000 sq.km. up until 1918. Was once called the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR), after the Bolshevik revolution in 1917 and is toady apart of the Commonwealth of Independent States, since the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. Russia has the 9th largest economy of the world and is slowly becoming richer since the end of it being communist.

Russia is the biggest country in the world. Has a powerful military force and has made a big contribution to humanity. The country was in complete shit after 1991 when the Union collapsed, but since the beggining of the XXI century is experiencing a steady and large economic growth. Nowadays a big part of the budget is being spent on new sciences, like nanotechnology and genetic research. There are still many disparities between the capital cities and the rest of russia, but eventually that will straighten up. Birthrates are low and the fertility rate rate is subreplacement. But that's what happens in most of the West anyway. Yes, there are drunken fucktards, but most Russians actually have 2 or more higher degree educations. The vast majority of "russians" living in the US are actually Jews whose parents were born in the USSR.
