We’re HERE! Russia. Russia is massive in every respect and has always known it. Russia has never been shy about exerting its influence, never timid about being a dominant power; every country we’re going to explore this session has spent decades, if not centuries, under Russian rule. Sure, Russia is not the world power it was just two decades ago, but a nation so essential to the global power structure, one with a thousand years of hard-fought, heartfelt history…Russia is always going to be huge and its influence, especially in Eastern Europe, is everything.
