Russia was one of the top industries in the world back then. It exported grain to America it had a golden coin currency. The Empires vast territories were 2 times larger than nowadays. It controlled the Persian oil with England.

The economic opportunity and potential was much more greater than now. Too bad the Great war led Russia into a suicidal revolution.

A 25-rouble banknote of the year 1909 was about an equivalent to the present-day 1250 US dollars.

A worker owned 900 rubles a year back then.

Russia once a great Empire, after communism a total wreck.
