Answer by Cameron U
Russia is a beautiful country. The architecture is wonderful. Personally, I thought the people were not the most hospitable and no one actually smiles there :-/ I was only there for two days but I’d definitely say it was memorable. I liked Moscow far better than St. Petersburg but I’d say they’re each really cool cities.

Answer by Belisarius
There are, like the terrorists from Chechenia, Tataristan, North Ossetia. Individuals from a lot of ethnicities live in Russia, besides the russians, about 30% are from other groups. So there are bound to be some displeased folks. Democracy doesn’t seem to be working very well, you know Putin is not president anymore but still dictates items around. There is an enourmous underground globe also, drugs, the Petrol giants that descend from the Mafia(Roman Abramovich?). Russia will usually be Russia – a distant and underdeveloped land full of drunken gypsies.
