Potatoes were brought to Russia in the late 17th century, around the 1680s, during the reign of Tsar Peter the Great. He recognized their potential as a food source and encouraged their cultivation to improve the country's agriculture. However, it took several decades for potatoes to become widely accepted and integrated into Russian cuisine. By the 19th century, they had become a staple food in Russia.

Is potatoes brought to Americas from Europe or is it found in Americas?

Potatoes are native to the Americas, specifically originating in the Andean region of modern-day Peru and northwest Bolivia. They were first cultivated by indigenous peoples long before European contact. After the arrival of Europeans in the 16th century, potatoes were brought to Europe, where they eventually became a staple crop. Thus, potatoes are originally from the Americas, not brought from Europe.
