Well if you never heard that Russia is DIVERSED country with over 100 ethnic groups, then you probably don't live in Asia or Europe
@Korsalath its common sense. Drive 200km in any direction in Europe or Asia and the culture and ethnicity of the local people change
Most wasterners know only of Moscow, they think Moscow is the whole Russia. Can't blame them thou as their MSM focus all their coverage on Moscow (Kremlin) where all the action is. Most are suprised when they meet asian looking Russian, they think all are like Arnold cocanium🤣🤣🤣

People are always surprised when I tell them how diverse Russia is. Mainstream media outlets (e.g. news, games, movies, ...) never does a great job in showing how diverse and weird places are
Because Russia does not accept them as a different culture and country thats why we dont know its your president dictator fault not west countties fault! Stop praising your president Vladimir Adolf Kaputin and everyone will see your culture and country!
That's what happens when people get their education from the news instead of reading a book or meeting people. Most people in Moscow don't even know how diverse Russia is.
I had suspicion about Russia being way more diverse than it seems to be when I knew Sakhalin and Kamchatka share an ethnicity with Hokkaido (i.e. the Ainu). With landmass that big, it's impossible for Russia to have only two ethnicities.
"It must be way more," I thought back then. I used Indonesia for comparison because Indonesia is quite diverse as well.
As it turns out, my assumption is right.
@@adityairawan1843 This was commonly taught when I was in school. However this video and many of the comments in here present it as some harmonious co existence that has always been like that, it's not. This is the result of "Russiafication" the "soviet forced settlement plan" and "population transfer". Under stalin the Soviets forcefully relocated and murdered 10's of millions of people. A good example was "Operation Lentil" from February to March 1944 when Stalin deported half a million Chechens murdering half of them in the process.
@@Bitchslapper316 Do you have documents confirming that "250 thousand Chechens were killed during deportation"?
I was born in the southernmost city of Russian federation, which name is Derbent. It's also the oldest city of this country(was founded about 2000-5000 y.a.). Many cultures and nationalities live there and make absolutely no difference in relations between each other. I'd say that despite the fact that Derbent has always been an Iranian city, no one of its inhabitats has a wish of being "not Russia".
Where did you get the information about "no one"?
@@GayazYusipov I can confirm this information. and I also know for sure in every corner of the federation, every nation is patriotic in its own way. everyone considers themselves part of a big country. however, there are always a few rotten grains. ready to betray their neighbor

Hello! I live in Russia, or rather in one of the republics that you forgot to mention, but showed on the map - this is Buryatia. You told interesting facts about national peculiarities. But what the hell are you talking about at the end of the video? It is not true. Small national languages are not oppressed here. In my region, two languages are used and studied: Russian and local Buryat. The situation is similar in other republics. The gradual loss of national cultural values occurs naturally, perhaps due to globalization.
Bla, bla, bla!
If they are not oppressed, then what language is used at school? Do they teach you mostly russian and leave an hour or two for your own language?
Do you live in the conditions moscow lives (it only has money because it sells your lands natural resources).
Tomorrow your nations will disappear from the land, but moscow still will have your resources to use.
You are blind if you cannot see that russia is using its minorities as meat in all the wars it starts. Many of those nations that russia occupies have been disappearing. Some of them we have never heard of and their population is less than 4000 people.

So if Russia has internal "republics" with their own laws and cultures and Moscow controls them with a national constitution is bad, but if the United States have 50 different states with diverse "cultures" and their own laws, obeying to the National Constitution, is a good thing?
We don't exactly have much internal laws, also not only republics but any other type of a "subject" of a federation(in the US, there are only states), as they are equal
some federal laws take some ethnical minorities into consideration, like the ones who have to hunt to survive have easier access to firearms, etc
It's called "shameless western hypocrisy", which is a top value in those parts of the world..
Despite the fact that all these lands have been part of Russia for centuries, even before such a hypocritical state as the United States appeared. And now these roosters are trying to dictate the rules of the existence of the Russian state. We have preserved all these peoples and cultures, their faiths and traditions and have been preserving them for centuries, hundreds of large and small nationalities have been living together on these lands for hundreds of years. Meanwhile, the Europeans destroyed almost all the indigenous peoples and turned North America into one big biomass.

Even European nations like France has ethnic minorities with their own identities. France isn't only Paris either, and Brittany, Corsica and Alsace are different the rest. And I'm not even talking about overseas territories.
but they are all the same ethnicity and they all speak french
Sadly , Paris tried for 2 centuries to suppress other languages which are not Paris french (the official language) like breton , occitan or catalan
@@fredericksimmeth5586 no they arent corsicans are closer to sardinians than french, bretons are celtic people, not french, basque people are completly unrelated to french people, alsace has a german minority, occitanian used to be more unique and comparble to the catalans of spain before their language got oppresed by the french

I like how other countries start military conflicts, operations and no one pays attention to it....Even now Turkey has started operations in several countries and there is no reaction from the world community, people are dying there too, but no one cares. As well as with Yugoslavia, Iraq, Syria and other conflicts. The media is doing its job, people don't want to think.
You like it???
So the big difference is that The Russian Federation, included/annexed its natives in the territories. Whereas the United States wiped them out almost entirely.
Well natives of america did fight back. it was really complicated expansion including many things. russian expansion into siberia and beyond was mostly bloodless since it wasn't very populated and it was mostly smaller settlements
@@c.h.1839 I think you and I both know that has less to do with how populous the settlements were, and more with the intent and beliefs the people held about the places and people they were colonizing.
The US have every country of different Karen
True, but more than 90% of Native Americans did die to disease tho.
Russian natives weren’t separated from the world so they had all of the antibodies to fight the diseases, so they didn’t die from them.
@@joshbentley2307 you do realize that diseases were actively used as biological agents to purposely infect natives by the European settlers right? There is actual correspondence between Europe and Colonials that discusses this.
The last statement is blatant BS. I live my entire life in Tatarstan and I can tell in 90s when it was de facto independent and kept all taxes to itself these money just went straight to offshores, we didn't see a dime of it. Now we pay into federal budget and miraculously local budgets are flooded with money from the state. Now quality of life in Tatarstan is above average russian region.

Putin is the West’s new favourite boogeyman. They blame him for everything even when it’s not accurate to do so.
Corruption is probably the most destructive thing for a country/society. A country that manages to keep it under control can prosper.
That money still goes to offshore accounts, but now it is just for Putin. Not for your local leaders.
Compare how well these cultures are preserved to what the USA did to the native Americans
well TECHNICALLY, the europeans fucked over the native americans, but yes, it's sad whats happening to them
@@devdre4491 No I did mean USA. Look at how much land the natives still had once the USA was founded vs how much they lost afterwards. In Russia, the indigenous nations are huge compared to the tiny reservations still found in the USA.
Plus within Russia they have the political power of federated states. No reservation gets to elect a senator in America like a state can. There is a night and day difference of treatment. Not just in the past, but presently in 2022
These nations are bigger and they are preserved much worse. Have you seen, how the republics live? It's terrible.

You know that most countries have more than 2-3 nationalities, don't you?
As for Russia, to understand how the constituent entities live, you need to go to each of the regions and live there.
I am Russian, my husband is Tatar, my friends are Kazakhs and Bashkirs. This is a country where Orthodox people lay a namaz mat, and in the kitchen they make bliny and chak-chak, borshch and beshbarmak. Where the distance between the neighboring towns is 300-1000 km and when you come to a neighboring region you can't understand the locals because they speak their own language. They have their own traditions, music, dance and cuisine. And all people respect each other regardless of religion and nationality. Welcome to Russia. There are hospitable and kind people here. The picture you see when you come here will be very different from what you see on TV and the internet. I have been to more than 35 countries, I can say 100% that Russia is now more developed in many aspects. Many European cities are 5-10 years behind Russia in terms of technology, urban infrastructure development, services (internet services, delivery, etc.), social and state communications, and so on.

I remember the "Western Media" have ago at Russia for not having a "diverse" playing squad in their World Cup squad during the 2018 World Cup, even though in [FACT] they had a diverse squad, with players originally from many different regions of Russia. Just because they didn't have any black players like those of France, England etc (i.e. those which colonised African and/or the Caribbean) doesn't mean they didn't have a diverse playing squad.
This video is on point with regards to the diversity of Russia.
Why is Western Europe so obsessed with black people anyways
Half of Europe in east, call it East Europe is "Russia", from the White Sea in north to Black Sea in south or from Kanin's nos(e) in noth to Tongue of Arabath in south. Ethnically Russia is the whitest of the white people. There might be a few sub-Saharan Africans (Blacks) who reside there for studies or some business. But by & large Russia doesn't have Blacks, but many Asians from erst-while republics in USSR. Hence no racial issue here (unless one wants to provoke them or wants to highlight a nonexistent issue). Russia has a powerful football team as also the erstwhile Muslims republics (in Central Asia). She is entirely secular which implies the "State" (federal government) is disinterested or even indifferent to religious aspirations of the people. They are free to pursue their spiritual proclivities and can have whatever they want by way of religion. Some federal subjects (somewhat below a republic & above a province) have complete autonomy, unless one of them wants to wreck the federation, through their over-zealous religiosity and if the reaction of the State (federal government) is visible, it is justified.
So, why do you want to imterpret a football team composition in terms of ethnic sharp edges?

Imagine if Natives of United States were not driven into reservations, but were incorporated into the bigger state properly, with all the cultural rights intact?..

One thing is having a minority language as vehicular language of teaching and another thing is having it taught as a foreign language. For instance, during Soviet times, Lithuanians was the vehicular language of education, while Russian language was a mandatory subject taught as a foreign language. What makes an adult person's mother tongue is not their parent's mother tongue, but the vehicular language of their education. That happened in France, when the creation of the Education Nationals ended with the regional languages. There are many historical examples showing it such changes in mother tongue thanks to mandatory changes in the vehicular language of education: Brussels in the end of the XIX and begining of the XIX Century (from Dutch to French), Catalonia in the last 40 years (from Spanish to Catalan), Moselle in the middle of the XX Century (from German to French) etc.

In Russia they let people live the lives they used to live and preserved their culture and language.

Yes, Russia is a country of its own, the independent member countries make up the Russia Federation, there is a difference between Russia & Russia Federation.
As Dadi Ghidut, explained Russia is moving toward imperialism and want to make the Federation into member states as territories of Russia, however certain areas have become as genocide campaigns, which is highly illegal in accordance to international law, which Russia may or may not be involved, which would make the merger of the federation less appetizing and bring on more concern about Russia's future within the international community.

Well, I hate to break it to you (lies - I absolutely love it), but it's totally Russia. Any of it's republics.
And if you still don't think so then consider Kentucky not a part of USA, and say "Kentucky is not USA". Or any of the states, really.
Or consider Scotland not a part of UK. Or Wales. Or Northern Ireland. Make video about them, and make a thumbnail stating "this is not USA", or "this is not UK".
People from the UK share the same ethnicity, Russians don’t. And let me remind you that America was the colony, not the colonist. It’s not lies but facts, Russia tries to erase minorities and increase Slavs.
The only main reason of this is because the creator of this video is pro-western who wants to torn apart the Russian federation
Wales is a good analogy. Wales was conquered by England, just as these republics were conquered by Russia. Scotland was not conquered, it united with England (which included Wales) to form the United Kingdom via an act of its own Parliament; Ireland later joined on the same terms before the Republic of Ireland seceded, "leaving" the north. The UK is a union but Wales is not an equal partner even though it has its own language, its own culture and history and traditions. And although most of its population has been anglicized over centuries, there is an independence movement with its own political party that is about where Scotland's was 30 or so years ago. You can talk about the United Kingdom and the Russian Federation being politically recognized entities, but no Welshman would say "this is England." I would say that "Russia" in the video's title is not the same as "The Russian Federation" and many of the minorities in the republics would dispute being labelled as Russian the same way Welsh would dispute being English even though England, the English Parliament and English law hold dominion over them.

10:22 - this region is called Krasnodarskiy kray, not Adygea. Adygea - is only a small republic inside Krasnodar's region.
well i mean pretty much the whole southern kuban, which includes southern krasnodar krai and the whole of the republic of adygea, is circassian land that russians colonised so 🤷♀️ hes not too far off
Thats all Circassian (Adyghe) territory, not "krasnodar" territory. After the 1763 - 1864 Russo-Circassian war, 90% of the Circassians were either killed or forcely deported to the ottoman empire.
The Circassians (Adyghe) were the biggest population in the whole (north-)caucasus before that and even the oldest and most ancient population too... All those territories of Kabardino-balkaria, karachay-Cherkessia, Adygea, Krasnodar Krai, Stavropol, North ossetia-alania and a tiny little bit of ingushetia, are original Circassian (Adyghe) homeland and territory, there is nothing russian in that area...
Talking about language…I live by the way in Komi Republic. We have two official languages Russian and Komi. And both are studied at schools in our republic. So I’m not seeing any ban of our ethnic language. Lots of older generation speaks it. Of course younger ones are not so interested with Komi, but still they learn the basics at school and learn our ethnic culture.
Because not are countries ,Russia is state federation,similar like USA, Canada or Mexico but Russia not call state or province like Mexico, USA or Canada. Russia say republics but Russia is a country federation like USA, Mexico etc . Is easy
The way you described it makes Russian FEDERATION (duh, it's a federation so being surprised that it hides "countries" in it is just silly) is some kinda colonial superpower that bleeds its colonies dry, when in fact, it's not.
While Russian republics do have their own constitutions and their own governing bodies, they have always been (including the times of the Soviet Union) governed mostly under the centralised model, starting from its education system and law-inforcement all the way to its media and the Internet. There are no restriction of movement or travel and no discrimination between citizens from non-central regions v the central ones (from a political stand-point naturally)
The people between republics don't at all feel like they are from different places and the entire culture has been largely unified. They feel they are Russians first and whatever Republic or other regional district second (By Russian I mean Russian citizen. English language doesn't make a distinction between a citizen and someone from a slavic ethnic group but in Russian there are two different words for these different things)
An interesting fact is that despite the ethnical diversity in Russia (and this diversity is huge) and racial diversity (mainly coming from the fact that half of the country is in Asia, while the other in Europe) there was never any problem of race or nationality in it, because the native people were never oppressed or slighted (except the time of the Soviet Union when they were forced to teach their children to speak in Russian, causing much harm to the preservation of cultural heritage, but that was motivated by the fact that the Soviet Union wanted to mold every citizen under a single kind of model rather than an issue of discrimination) and no matter ethnicity everyone was treated with the same level of benefits and duties.
A lot of western countries and people have some kind of humorous overly exaggerated image of a Russia from the action movies from the 90s that constantly wants to scheme and oppress someone and what else does come from this quite open window of Internet makes the modern Russia seem like an entirely different planet of vodka-drinking profanity-spewing Adidas-wearing mad slavs but you gotta understand that it's a country that is the same as others and deserves a bit more of an objective and deeper than a surface-level view to it than this.

It looks very beautiful and listening to the languages of these Uralic tribes clearly shows their connection to Hungarian but have adopted a more Russian tone and vocabulary during the centuries, like Hungarian has adopted Slavic an Germanic loanwords and vocabulary.. The simmilarities are obvious more than with the Finnic language branch (Finnish, Estonian..) which have had separate ways for abou 4,500 years .. So the connection of a european language and people to two
Siberian tribes brought me here, cos I assumed that everybody already knew that, as a "Federation", Russia consists of republics . And the tightened grip is reasonable after seeing Kosovo's violent independence that was gained by an extensive bombing campaign by 16 countries (unauthorized by the UN) and seeing how Crimean independence was controversial without shots fired .. really shows the hypocrisy of the "West")

Thank you for the comment, I agree with you. I simply don’t know how people still think that Hungarian language is from the Finnic language branch, I can’t even think of any real similarities.
I've been to Khanty Mansiysk in 2012. Completely new town, everything is owned by Gasrprom and Lukoil and constructed after 2007. It even has arena for winter sports with bigger capacity than Belgrade arena. The closest inhabited village is 700km away.
