Extractions: The new folded map of Russia and Neighboring Countries is the first edition of its kind containing more than 8,000 geographic names in the Latin alphabet. It covers the entire territory of the former USSR and includes several photographs of famous attractions. Its design is based on our previously released award winning Wall Map of Russia in Cyrillic. The current folded version is easier to read since all the names are transliterated. During compilation of the map the goal was to present not only the accurate information by making the map as detailed and complete as possible for a given scale, but to depict relief, natural zones, settlements, highways, railways and political-administrative borders. This is the most accurate up-to-date map of Russia currently available. About Russia Russia (The Russian Federation) - located in the eastern part of Europe and in the northern part of Asia.

Extractions: COUNTRY'S PROFILE AND AN INTERACTIVE MAP OF RUSSIA WITH INFORMATION ABOUT ALL ITS REGIONS AN INTERACTIVE MAP OF RUSSIA WITH INFORMATION ABOUT ALL ITS REGIONS Russia or the Russian Federation, both terms being synonymous, lies in the east of Europe and in the Northern part of Asia. It has an area of 17,075,400 sq.km. and a population of 147.8 million. The capital of Russia is Moscow. Its western or European part supports nearly 80 percent of its total population and forms part of Eastern Europe, while its eastern part stretches far beyond the Ural mountaines in Northern Asia. Russia measures over 9,000 km from west to east and between 2,500 to 4,000 km from north to south. Some 14 percent of Russian territory lies beyond the Arctic Circle, within the perennial permafrost zone, with a long arctic night, which is a fact of life for the numerous archipelagoes and islands of the Arctic Ocean. Russia sprawls across 11 time zones. Its shores are washed by 12 seas of three oceans: the Atlantic (Baltic, Black and Azov seas), the Arctic Ocean (Barents, White, Kara, Laptev, East Siberian and Chukotka), and the Pacific Ocean (Bering, Okhotsk and the Sea of Japan). Extending thousands of kilometers from north to south, Russia spans four climatic zones arctic, subarctic, temperate and subtropical. Most of the country's area lies in a temperate continental climate with a long cold and snowy winter and a relatively short warm summer. The continental character of the climate grows more rigorous in Siberia and the northern districts of the Far East, which have a pronounced continental climate that makes the weather generally quite severe, with wide differences between the seasonal and daily temperatures and a thick bed of permafrost under the topsoil. The absolute minimum temperature of -71 degrees C has been registered in the Oimyakon mountain depression, a short distance from Verkhoyansk, in East Siberia, rightly ranked among the coldest places of the Northern Hemisphere.

You won't want to miss this day of learning, lively debate, fun and fellowship, which we confidently predict will add a new dimension to your life. Register today, and bring your friends! Professor Rassias will dazzle you with his energetic interactive presentation and wit as he shows you that language instruction at any level should be a humanistic pursuit intended to sensitize people to other cultures, to the relativity of values, to the appreciation of similarities among peoples and respect for the differences among them. He will go far beyond the classroom and the Rassias Method in sharing his innovative approaches to the instruction of language and culture. Particular attention will be paid to the ways each sense contributes to our knowledge of self and sensitivity to others. Through the power of language, groups of people tell their history, express their relation to other groups, and maintain their religion and identity. Professor Grenoble will look at instances where this aspect of language has been used by political leaders to control and even to dismantle groups and their cultures. By preventing some languages from being used in schools and other public institutions, by materials, and other tactics, leaders of dominant ethnic groups in this and other countries have brought some languages to the brink of extinction.

The censuses of 1959, 1970, 1979 and 1989 thus help us to closely follow the general evolution of the population and to appreciate the extremely varied demographic dynamics of different regions. In Russia proper, it has been possible to measure the depopulation of rural areas in central Russia, rapid urbanisation and the population of the pioneer fronts (particularly in western Siberia). Total population at the time of census: Source: Goskomstat Up until 1989, the total population grew at a steady rate. The breakdown of the USSR has been marked by a demographic change as spectacular as its political transformation: the population has begun to decrease year after year, due mainly to the significant gap between a low fertility rate and a very high death rate, particularly elevated among adult men. The country is growing old essentially due to a tangible degradation in the sanitary situation and to the increase in accidental deaths. One cannot overestimate the role of economic factors in all of this: such degradation began well before the end of the Soviet regime (Blum, 2004). The 1990s were marked by significant migratory movements to Russia's advantage (originating in the other former Soviet republics), but they have not compensated for the natural decrease.
