This book reviews its vast national history, from the Tsars to the Soviet Union to today's Russian Federation. It explores its richly diverse topography - coniferous forests, semideserts, steppes, tundra - with an array of climates to match. It explores its population and fascinating culture, from the Bolshoi Ballet to Tolstoy and Pushkin. A special website directory offers report writers authenticated sources for flags, national anthems, time differences, current weather and climate, and currency conversion.
