How did Russia respond to the Great Depression?
The Great Depression affected Russia in many different ways, the biggest affect was famine. As famine began to spread, people began to die off families ate their deceased children as a survival technique. Stalin was the ruler at this time, he created he 5 year plan which was supposed to reform Russia, but actually set it back a few years. Stalin would send out grain relief plans for every region except Ukraine. In doing so Ukraine's population decreased by 20% within just a few years.

How many countries has Russia invaded in the last 20 years?
When did Russia invade Ukraine, Moldova and Chechnya which is part of Russian Federation for more than 20+....So how can Russia invade Russia? I'm Ukrainian/ Russian from Republic of Crimea, but can't recall Russia invading Ukraine in the last 20+ years for sure...and before 1991 Ukraine was a state within Russia and never existed as a country...we became a country after the collapse of USSR...Your answer is not based on facts and smells of prejudice...In regards to Crimea...we as Crimean people do not feel invaded or annexed as most English sources label it...we voted at the Referendum ( you might want to read up as to what this ward means) and as a republic gladly split away from Ukraine and by mutual choice became part of Russian Federation as a an Atonomous Republic...white all our rights and our own government reinstated by Crimean people ( majority of which are Russian, some Ukrainian and some Tatar). If you don't know much about other people's land/country/ republic then go there and meet the people, learn their history and their views and feelings about their land and only then speak about us!!! Stop getting your info from mainstream media...that has its own agenda...please...
