http://www.send.org/siberia/geography.htm

Extractions: Curving around the North Pole in a huge arc, Russia (the Russian Federation) spans almost half the globe from east to west and about 4,000 kilometers (2,480 miles) from north to south. Divided into eleven time zones, Russia is by far the world's largest country. It occupies much of Eastern Europe and northern Asia. The terrain is diverse. There are great stands of forest, mountain ranges, and vast plains. There are also great reserves of natural resources that provide the nation with enormous potential wealth. Russia ranks sixth in the world in population, trailing China, India, the United States, Indonesia, and Brazil. The Ural Mountains, which extend more than 2,200 kilometers (1,364 miles) from north to south, form the boundary separating the unequal European and Asian sectors of Russia. Asian Russia is about as large as China and India combined, but it is the European western part that is home to more than 75 percent of Russia's inhabitants. This acutely uneven distribution of human and natural resources is a striking feature of Russian geography and population. The government has tried in vain to settle people in sparsely populated Asian areas rich in resources. Meanwhile, the European part is depleting water and fuel resources faster than Russia can exploit resource-rich Siberia.

http://www.ku.edu/carrie/texts/carrie_books/paksoy-6/cae16.html

Extractions: Return to Table of Contents Divay, a Bashkurt (in Russian sources, Bashkir), was born on 19 December 1855 in Orenburg and lived most of his life among the Kazakhs. He attended the Orenburg Nepliuev military academy, first studying in the Asiatic Division, where the majority of his classmates were reportedly Kazakhs and second in the division for the preparation of translators of Oriental languages for the steppe regions. In 1876-1877, at the age of 21, Divay left school to accept an appointment in the Russian bureaucracy of the Turkistan territory (krai). There in the southern steppe region Divay travelled and was able to visit many Kazakh, Kirghiz and Uzbek villages (aul). He held the post of Divisional Inspector of the Evliya-Ata (in Russian sources Aulie-Atinsk) district (uezd) and then became translator and junior official of Special Missions attached to the Governor-General of the Syr-Darya region (oblast). This latter post gave him wide opportunities to travel throughout the Turkistan territory. In 1883, Divay began collecting ethnographic materials. The following year, the Governor-General of the Syr-Darya region, N. I. Grodekov, initiated the collection of information on Kazakh and Kirghiz customary law in order to publish a code of juridical customs of the nomadic peoples of the region. While working on this project, Divay reportedly collected "historical legends from ancient manuscripts, in the hands of educated Kirghiz, [and] heroic poems, aphorisms, fables, riddles, incantations, etc." A portion of these materials was published in Grodekov's book and the remainder, including fables, legends, songs, poems and dastans (Central Asian ornate oral histories), were published in Collection of Materials for Statistics of the Syr-Darya Region (Sbornik materialov dlia statistiki Syr-Darinskoi oblasti) for 1891-1897, 1901, 1902, 1904, 1905, and 1907. These articles by Divay were reviewed by various prominent Orientalists of the time.

My efforts had little effect: Deterioration continues, and its ultimate goals and possible consequences have become more clear.

http://www.koreanhistoryproject.org/Jta/Ru/RuGEO0.htm

Extractions: List of Interactive Maps GENERAL DESCRIPTION Russia's shores are washed by the waves of ten seas belonging to three oceans: the Atlantic, the Pacific, and the Arctic Ocean. Though immense in territory, nearly 70% of Russia consists of broad plains and steppes. Russia also contains some 2 million fresh and saltwater lakes as well as many glaciers in its Arctic and high mountain regions. In western Russia, the East European Plain includes the low Valdai, Central Russian, and Volga Hills as well as the OkaDon and Caspian Lowlands. The north to south Ural Mountain Ranges, with an average elevation between 800 and 1,200 m (2,625 and 3,937 ft), mark the "official" eastern boundary of the East European Plain and the beginning of Asia. Beyond the Urals to the east lies the broad and flat West Siberian Plain, a vast expanse of marshy lowlands. This landscape gradually gives way to the strongly uplifted Central Siberian Plateau, an undulating countryside which combines high mountains and a complex chain of deep river valleys cut into the plateau's surface. Further east, the plateau blends into the Central Yakut Plain. There are about 120,000 rivers in the northern area of Siberia, most of which remain icebound for eight months of the year. Eastern and southern Russia are predominantly mountainous. South of the Caspian Depression and the Yergeni Hills, the Caucasus Mountains run northwest to southeast along Russia's border between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea. Russia's highest point, Mt. El'Brus at 5,642 metres (18,510 feet), lies in the Caucasus range. Many active volcanoes are also found along Russia's weat coast and throughout the Kuril Islands.
