I remember a dream I had where I was sucked into the Pokémon world and I taught Ash and Goh about our world And I clearly remember Ash asking me “why is Russia so big?” And I said “to be honest Ash I have no idea, they have been big since like the 18th century” and his reaction was absolutely priceless
I’m not saying you didn’t know you probably knew But you didn’t mention this Russia is like super north Most of the population is in Europe Siberia is super cold so like only 30M+ people live their
the main question is not why Russia is big, but why Europe is not a single country in the end, even though it is smaller in territory. That's when you'll find the answer to the question "why is Russia so big"
No Kievan Rus. Just Rus. It was made up term by Western historians spreaded to mislead people. History has been rewritten so many times, people don't even know it.
Finally someone who doesn't have any bias and just tells straight history, in a world of polarizing opinions and agendas, channels like this are a breath of fresh air, and for that, you just got another subscriber.
@@HunterJames-xm6qt The size difference between the United States and China gets quite complicated when considering the territories. But remember, unlike how it appears on a map, Alaska is nowhere near the size of China. As a matter of fact; without Alaska, the United States wouldn’t be as large as Brazil. However, with Alaska, the U.S. is really fighting the Middle Kingdom when it comes to 3rd🥉 place.
Russia is the largest country on earth but Siberia is pretty much slowing Russia down, most of its population doesn’t even live there, and it doesn’t have other countries like Georgia, Ukraine, Belarus, and other countries.
It doesn't slow it down at all. Quite the opposite. It is full of resources - oil and gas in the eastern and northern parts, coal aluminum gold and a lot more in southern and western parts. A lot of money has been put into development here in recent years
Nice video! Nicholas II was kind of an idiot. He was really out of touch with the people he ruled. The writing was on the wall in 1905 when the people revolted. Yet he didn't give them much but token changes.
Most governing systems are corrupt to some extent. Yet in Russia's case specifically - one of the reasons is that most of high ranks got their place during 90s-'00s, a time of economic crisis and organized crime
I know you are trying to keep people's short attention spans, but you reaaaalllly need to allow some tiny pauses between your sentences and stop editing them so close together. You sound like an auctioneer or robot and I can't stand youtubers that do this. It's too bad because the content is interesting. Peace out.

Crazy to think that Russia which is the largest country in the world by far in territory used to be even larger.
Using both Treelands AND lumber tycoon music in this video is amazing.

For Kievan Rus to modern Russia… 😨
so what?
No Kievan Rus. Just Rus. It was made up term by Western historians spreaded to mislead people. History has been rewritten so many times, people don't even know it.
Russia was never the Kyivan Rus.

@@shhfydhdhdb9762 thanks
Thanks to me, i told everyone to step out of russia's way, making it big
This was in the 1500s whan they took free land💀
better question why is it so corrupt
Most governing systems are corrupt to some extent. Yet in Russia's case specifically - one of the reasons is that most of high ranks got their place during 90s-'00s, a time of economic crisis and organized crime
At least they know it, but you don't know that you corrupt. That's difference.

Fun fact: Russia is not one country.
Russia is a country made up of smaller countries. (Which includes, Karelia, Yakutia, Dagestan, Chechnya, etc.
Those are autonomous republics, not countries.
