Russia is european part, just we have colonies in Asian part, and of course there is o lot of cultures and traditions that I wouldn't want to destroy.

My family are from Vladivostok, St Petersburg & the Russian colony of Port Arthur in China (today known as Dalian). God bless the Udmurt people & god bless all the ethnic minorities of Russia, all 150 odd peoples, we love you all.
I met a chap from Vladivostok, he was very surprised to know I had come from England. It was in Korea and we looked very alike. I wish I had the opportunity to go there he said it is good.

Perhaps not, BUT THEY ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING TO STOP YOUR PRECIOUS DICTATOR FROM KILLING UKRAINIANS! Stop killing Ukrainians you mindless zombies! Stand up and demand change in your rotten country! Or are you, like everyone else in Russia, too afraid to stand up to your leaders? That is the whole problem with you Russians. You have endless resources and could be the single richest country on the planet, but your political system is so corrupt, and your people are so apathetic that you just can't manage to be successful. You are so brainwashed by Solovyov, Simonyon, Skabeeva, Krasnosky and others that you actually believe the BS they feed you on an hourly basis. WAKE UP! DO NOT FEAR! GET IN THE STREETS!

I came upon your channel by chance. I have been fascinated with Russia since my youth. I grew up reading Tolstoy, Dostoyevski, and studying the history of your great land and people. We need more channels like yours to remind us we are all one people sharing a small, fragile planet. Best wishes from the USA.
This was amazing Eli, the rest of the world needs more of this, embracing each other and experiencing unique cultures instead of being fearful of the other,
Many people these days (due to intense propaganda and brainwashing) desire to destroy and end all unique cultures and instead have a mixed up "melting pot" mass of generic, rootless consumers and de-racinated economic units.

I agree mate, this warms the heart and soul because all people in this video are from the same ethnic background, it means peace, trusting everybody, no worries from feral roaming primates that steal and endanger us.
@@Humanophage maybe. many uralic people russified because of russian is dominant language. but most people in the volga region seem similar to each other in appearance.
Elina is a Kazan Tatar. Tatar people from Tatarstan are well known to have significant Uralic ancestry due to assimilation of the indiginous polulation of the Ural Mountains by turks.
of course, Russians occupied many territories with groups of people that had nothing in commom with them... A little bit of history of this ethnic group: "After 1917 began a short period of national reawakening, the Udmurt Republic was created and an active national intelligentsia took shape. This helped a revival of the Udmurt Vos.[5] However, with the 1930s' rise of the Soviet Union the Udmurt intelligentsia was almost entirely destroyed, the high priests were declared enemies of the people and subjected to cruel repression, worship was forbidden, rural holy places, temples and family shrines were destroyed, and sacred groves were uprooted.[5] By the perestroika period, the Udmurts had very high levels of alcoholism and suicide, and low birth rates. Moreover, Russification proceeded steadily.[5] In the late 1980s and the early 1990s ethno-national and cultural identity reawakened, and despite the significant Christianisation the Udmurt national movement was entirely outside the framework of Eastern Orthodoxy, and even hostile to it.[5]"

Thanks for the videos. It´s informative and fun to watch. Russia, truly a vast and fruitful different civilisations through all the ethnic groups in all of Russia.
So wonderful to know that there are people like this on our world. Now I want to go to Udmurtia. Love their outlook on life, and traditional values that are family and community-centered. Doubt if there's any existential anxiety, alienation or much loneliness there. This is the natural,wholesome way we all should grow up in. Makes me sad most of us never had this.

If you mean the famous Russian composer, he was an ethnic Ukrainian. There's a famous philharmonic in Kyiv named after Tchaikovsky. There were many ethnic groups in the Russian empire in the 19th century. He was not Udmurt, he was just born in Udmurtia.
@@georgiinazarenko5490 Well, Ukrainians call all those born in Ukraine Ukrainians, why can’t those born in Udmurtia be called Udmurts?)) and yes, Cossack ancestors do not make Tchaikovsky Ukrainian
I appreciate seeing all the young people involved! I did a bit of a dive into the people and culture, because the people looked like my mother-in-law who is Finnish. Well, wouldn't you know it, they are related to the the Sami people of Finland.
Я очень скучаю по Финляндии, зачем они закрыли границу с Россией??? В чем смысл этого?Это очень не справедливо. Я имею удмуртские корни, живу в Санкт-Петербурге и мне так нравилось бывать в Финляндии, я себя чувствовала сердцем, как дома.,... это ближе от меня, чем Удмуртия. Осталась только русская Карелия.

I think it's because Russia isn't commercialized like the US. We have too many chain stores and restaurants. My kids and I like to play Geoguessr, and when we do the "where in the US" game, it is so difficult. Another Home Depot, another Walmart--where could we be? Anywhere.
And multiculturalism / mass immigration, especially in Europe, is making it harder and harder for the longstanding native populations to retain a sense of ethnic identity, shared background and history :(
@@gxyb766 the issue is how you approach it. Russia, despite having tons of ethnic group introduces other ethnic groups not native to Russia, such as germans. they ended up becoming their own ethnic group, Volga Germans, with their own german dialect.
@@retroas2683 Yeah, but look how that worked out for the Volga Germans. Targeted during Stalin's "Great Purge", deported to camps in Siberia during WWII, killing millions, and eventual mass emigration back to Germany.

Rus' was founded by slavs and a finno-ugric minorities (back then noone even knew about genetics) so the similarities are pretty common. there are also similarities with tatars. we lived together for centuries, it's no wonder we have cultural crossovers.
@@retroas2683What surprises me is that the Rus (or Slavs in general) could coexist peacefully and exchange culture and customs with other totally different peoples, this is not the case for the rest of the Europeans who literally massacred the peoples who inhabited the lands that they colonized, such as in the United States, Canada or Australia, how did they achieve that? What is the reason why the Slavic expansion way is so different from the Germanic/Roman/English expansion way?

Perhaps not, BUT THEY ARE NOT DOING ANYTHING TO STOP YOUR PRECIOUS DICTATOR FROM KILLING UKRAINIANS! Stop killing Ukrainians you mindless zombies! Stand up and demand change in your rotten country! Or are you, like everyone else in Russia, too afraid to stand up to your leaders? That is the whole problem with you Russians. You have endless resources and could be the single richest country on the planet, but your political system is so corrupt, and your people are so apathetic that you just can't manage to be successful. You are so brainwashed by Solovyov, Simonyon, Skabeeva, Krasnosky and others that you actually believe the BS they feed you on an hourly basis. WAKE UP! DO NOT FEAR! GET IN THE STREETS! BE A REAL DEMOCRACY! ELECT LEADERS THAT WILL PROTECT YOUR FREEDOM! YOU, YOURSELF PROTECT AND CHERISH YOUR NEWFOUND FREEDOM! Tell me I am wrong about your putrid, festering country, Joseph Stalin!

of course, Russians occupied many territories with groups of people that had nothing in commom with them... A little bit of history of this ethnic group: "After 1917 began a short period of national reawakening, the Udmurt Republic was created and an active national intelligentsia took shape. This helped a revival of the Udmurt Vos.[5] However, with the 1930s' rise of the Soviet Union the Udmurt intelligentsia was almost entirely destroyed, the high priests were declared enemies of the people and subjected to cruel repression, worship was forbidden, rural holy places, temples and family shrines were destroyed, and sacred groves were uprooted.[5]
By the perestroika period, the Udmurts had very high levels of alcoholism and suicide, and low birth rates. Moreover, Russification proceeded steadily.[5] In the late 1980s and the early 1990s ethno-national and cultural identity reawakened, and despite the significant Christianisation the Udmurt national movement was entirely outside the framework of Eastern Orthodoxy, and even hostile to it.[5]"
This is how I have always pictured the Russians in the country. Outstanding and beautiful!
hihi 😂, my udmurt wife translated the first song to me: In german "Es weht der Wind, der Junge gibt Dem Pferd zu trinken und denkt dabei an seine Liebe." - In english "The wind is blowing, the young boy gives his horse water and thinks about his love."

So wonderful to know that there are people like this on our world. Now I want to go to Udmurtia. Love their outlook on life, and traditional values that are family and community-centered. Doubt if there's any existential anxiety, alienation or much loneliness there. This is the natural,wholesome way we all should grow up in. Makes me sad most of us never had this.

If you mean the famous Russian composer, he was an ethnic Ukrainian. There's a famous philharmonic in Kyiv named after Tchaikovsky. There were many ethnic groups in the Russian empire in the 19th century. He was not Udmurt, he was just born in Udmurtia.

I love videos like this. As an American who's ancestors have lived in America over 200 years some over 400 years a lot of traditions have been lost and not passed down and I feel lost in identity/culture sometimes.

I think it's because Russia isn't commercialized like the US. We have too many chain stores and restaurants. My kids and I like to play Geoguessr, and when we do the "where in the US" game, it is so difficult. Another Home Depot, another Walmart--where could we be? Anywhere.
And multiculturalism / mass immigration, especially in Europe, is making it harder and harder for the longstanding native populations to retain a sense of ethnic identity, shared background and history :(
@@gxyb766 the issue is how you approach it. Russia, despite having tons of ethnic group introduces other ethnic groups not native to Russia, such as germans. they ended up becoming their own ethnic group, Volga Germans, with their own german dialect.
@@retroas2683 Yeah, but look how that worked out for the Volga Germans. Targeted during Stalin's "Great Purge", deported to camps in Siberia during WWII, killing millions, and eventual mass emigration back to Germany.

Rus' was founded by slavs and a finno-ugric minorities (back then noone even knew about genetics) so the similarities are pretty common. there are also similarities with tatars. we lived together for centuries, it's no wonder we have cultural crossovers.
@@retroas2683What surprises me is that the Rus (or Slavs in general) could coexist peacefully and exchange culture and customs with other totally different peoples, this is not the case for the rest of the Europeans who literally massacred the peoples who inhabited the lands that they colonized, such as in the United States, Canada or Australia, how did they achieve that? What is the reason why the Slavic expansion way is so different from the Germanic/Roman/English expansion way?
