[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Russians are Europeans in many ways, except for its lack of respect for the individual and totalitarian history. The ultimate power is the power of the state and a dictator, which is true today. Just like in Europe, there no 1st or 2nd amendment and a lot of corruption. Many elderly people dumpster dive to get by because the government pension is tiny. Only in Moscow and St Petersburg people have a decent standard of living.[/quote] What history books have you been reading? Pretty much every modern European country evolved from agrarian oligarchy. Even when individual rights may have been achieved in country, many European nations have a shameful colonial histories and experience with totalitarian leaders. Also, Russia has many non-Europeans—Turkic, Uralic, Indo-European, Caucasian. [/quote]
