		In 1547, at the age of 17, Ivan IV (Ivan the Terrible; reigned 1533–84) was crowned czar of all Russia.
		Russia thus reached the frontiers of Afghanistan and China and the shores of the Pacific Ocean.
		Russia’s reputation suffered internationally, however, in late 2004 when it threw its support behind government candidates in Ukraine and the Georgian region of Abkhazia; in both elections, the candidates Moscow opposed ultimately succeeded despite strong resistance on the part of the existing governments to change.

	RUSSIA
		The Varangians/Russes got to Russia through their technology, the sailing ships that could actually take them to Greenland; but they came to rule the area through forms of large scale political organization that may have been rudimentary compared to Francia and Romania, but were beyond anything seen previously east of Moravia.
		Russia would then always be hindered by autocratic government that alternatively smothered dissent and innovation and then, alarmed at the backwardness of the country, attempted to impose top-down reforms and development -- which then would be resisted by a national conservatism that the government in its phase of being threatened by change would have loved.
		Russia was as weary of war as a country could be, but the Provisional Government decided to stay in the war against Germany.

	The State of Russian Foreign Policy and U.S. Policy Toward Russia
		In Russia and, just as important, in Ukraine and the other states that were born or reborn when the USSR collapsed, we have dealt with governments possessing—for the first time—a mandate for democratic and market reform and a desire to work with us to refashion the international order.
		Russia seeks equality with the United States at the expense of all other states, an exclusive unchallenged sphere in the CIS, and the demilitarization of Central and Eastern Europe so that the great powers alone could later revise their status.
		Russia's foreign policy elite is in the middle of yet another anti-Western swing of the sort we have come to witness for the past 300 years.

		Russia has seen a marked rise in xenophobia and hate crimes in recent years that rights groups say is fueled in part by the authorities' reluctance to crack down on hate crimes and tackle growing nationalism.
		Russia's parliament is in the process of adopting a law that will fine government ministers for saying "dollar" when they could have used the word "rouble" instead.

	Pravda.RU Patriarch Alexis II: They invaded Russia
		It should be remembered that when the Pope made this statement, and from Russia a negative reaction followed from Russia: the Moscow Patriarchy, the Russian Foreign Ministry, State Duma deputies, famous politicians, and public and religious figures of Russia considered this step of the Vatican to the open expansion of Catholicism into Russia.
		In Russia, the church is legislatively separated from the state; therefore, the president should not settle inter-church conflicts.
		A US Air Force helicopter has been shot down by Taleban forces near Gardez, eastern Afghanistan, proving that this conflict is far from over, the war far from won as rumours of a strike on a second helicopter are unconfirmed.

	Andrei Rublev (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
		Director Andrei Tarkovsky’s second film, ANDREI RUBLEV, is a massive and sweeping retelling of the life of the 15th-century Russian icon painter and perhaps the first great Russian artist.
		Tarkovsky's keen sense of spatial dynamics make Andrei Rublev a film of unerring beauty, one that would be remembered as some kind of masterwork on the strength of its photography alone.
		A virulent assault on all that is wrong with Mother Russia, both past and present.
