Is Russia still the Soviet Union?

First there was Russia, then there was the Soviet Union, now there's Russia again. The Soviet Union is no more. Russia is the name of the country now, as it was before. The Soviet Union, or more formally the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics or USSR, was composed of 15 different republics, of which Russia was the most powerful. Now it has broken up into 15 independent nations.


In 1922 under leadership of Lenin Russia was divided into how any republics and became known as sovlet union?

Russia was not divided into separate republics when the Soviet Union was first formed. The Soviet Union was formed when Russia, the Ukraine, Belarus and the Transcaucasian Federation (Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan) banded together to form the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union then added more and more republics. In 1991, the Soviet Union dissolved into 15 separate republics.

During what years were Russia and the Soviet Union the same?

This may be nit-picking, but it probably would not be for natives of the several former Soviet Socialist Republics. Russia and the Soviet Union were actually never "the same". It's a little like asking 'During what years were England and Great Britain the same?' The term 'Russia' was often used as a commonly understood but not entirely accurate way of refering to the Soviet Union, in much the same way that the term 'America' is widely but inaccurately used to refer to the US. The Union of Soviet Socialist Republics existed from about 1918 until 1991. See link for more details.

Technically, it was not. During the time of the Soviet Union, Russia was only one 15 states making up the Soviet Union. It would be more accurate to say that the Soviet Union was known as CCCP.
