Russia

Russia, the largest country in the world by land area, spans Eastern Europe and Northern Asia, covering over one-eighth of the Earth’s inhabited land area. With a rich history and diverse cultural heritage, Russia has made significant contributions to literature, music, science, and the arts. As a global superpower, Russia wields considerable influence on the geopolitical stage, particularly in matters of international security and diplomacy.

The country’s economy is fueled by abundant natural resources, including oil, natural gas, and minerals, although it also faces challenges related to economic diversification, corruption, and structural reforms.
