Russia is much more than Moscow and Siberia.
In this video, we explore all 8 Federal Districts of Russia and see just how different the country becomes as you travel from Europe to the Pacific — from the Russian Far East and Siberia to the Urals, Volga region, North Caucasus, Saint Petersburg and Moscow.
This episode of You Know NOTHING About Russia! takes you through Russian geography, major cities, climate, cultures, ethnic diversity, history, industry and everyday regional differences across the country.
Russia stretches across Europe and Asia and spans 11 time zones. Different parts of the country can look, feel and live very differently.
If your image of Russia is basically Moscow, snow and endless Siberia, this is where things get more complicated.
Important: this video is about Russia’s 8 Federal Districts — large administrative groupings of the country. We are not breaking down every individual republic, oblast, krai or autonomous region in this episode.
If you want a separate video explaining the republics and regions of Russia, let me know in the comments.
