I am from Tataristan Republic of Russian Federation❤️🇷🇺 Assalamu Alaykum from Russia to all peoples on the world🙋🏻‍♀️

[@piret123698745]

Well if you never heard that Russia is DIVERSED country with over 100 ethnic groups, then you probably don't live in Asia or Europe

[@stephenchappell7512]

Can you imagine the US having autonomous Republics for Native Americans?

[@alfhonikmusic]

To the Americans calling this the same as "states", I'm not sure you understand how extremely different this really is lmao.

[@gogogeegee76]

Welcome to the world of Federal republics, and multinational states.

[@urbnctrl]

So the big difference is that The Russian Federation, included/annexed its natives in the territories. Whereas the United States wiped them out almost entirely.

[@altcodex5625]

Russia is so large no wonder they have so many things, culture, places and people.

[@earlgrey6589]

People are always surprised when I tell them how diverse Russia is. Mainstream media outlets (e.g. news, games, movies, ...) never does a great job in showing how diverse and weird places are

[@DerFoerderator]

A Russian could life without alcohol but without tea, It would be torture.

[@tttt-fh5ex]

I'm Tatar, I'm Russian 💕🇷🇺Proud of Russia💕

[@PiousMoltar]

I'm not sure why you think people wouldn't expect Russia to have mountains. It's huge. Of course it has mountains. There's the Ural mountains for a start, they're pretty famous, generally being considered as the border between Europe and Asia...

Interesting fact: in fact, not every Russian alcoholic, but every Russian coffee or tea addict

[@luckybastard4533]

I was born in the southernmost city of Russian federation, which name is Derbent. It's also the oldest city of this country(was founded about 2000-5000 y.a.). Many cultures and nationalities live there and make absolutely no difference in relations between each other. I'd say that despite the fact that Derbent has always been an Iranian city, no one of its inhabitats has a wish of being "not Russia".

[@sakhanet3]

Hi, I'm from Yakutsk

[@valiarsharapov152]

It’s important to mention that not only the republics have their own unique cultures & languages, but instead the whole Siberia, the Urals, the Volga region, the Caucasus and a bunch of territories in the northern and northwestern russia

[@cloudyy1691]

Federation in U.S.A:- THEY ARE STATES!!

[@kuka4082]

I was born in a Kazakh village near Russian border. We had Tatars, Russians, Ukrainians and Bashkirs

[@leesummer4077]

Hello! I live in Russia, or rather in one of the republics that you forgot to mention, but showed on the map - this is Buryatia. You told interesting facts about national peculiarities. But what the hell are you talking about at the end of the video? It is not true. Small national languages ​​are not oppressed here. In my region, two languages ​​are used and studied: Russian and local Buryat. The situation is similar in other republics. The gradual loss of national cultural values ​​occurs naturally, perhaps due to globalization.
