What year was the Russian Republic established?

Answer 1

Russia is pretty old and it's changed a lot in size and power over the centuries.

Current Russia was founded as the Russian Federation in 1991... but it's been around a bit longer...

Soviet Russia came out of the Revolution over throwing the Tzars in 1917 (offically forming the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics "USSR" in 1922 with various other bits of old Imperial Russia) replacing...

The Russian Empire which was declared in 1721 by Peter the Great - so you could claim that as a founding date - but it had already been a major power just as "Russia" or the "Russian Kingdom" or similar for centuries...

The oldest recognisable "Russia" is probably "Moscovy" or the Grand Duchy of Moscow starting in the early 1300's it gradually absorbed by conquest or diplomacy the other states around it some of whom - Novogord from instance - could easily have won and so become "Russia" themselves.

Moscovy's leader in the late 1400's (note a whole century went by) Ivan III was called the "Tzar of all the Russians" so I guess that could be your founding of Russia late 1400's

It's quite hard to trace the founding dates of a lot of older countries since nationalism and statehood are fairly modern ideas - no neat "Independance Days" or declerations... the countries tend to grow out of the personal lands and dominions of powerful families or tribes.
