I say about your associations --> When someone mentions "Russia," what comes to mind? I think of the large Russian immigrant community that used to exist in Los Angeles. My father grew up around that community. Also, I have this image that it's a very cold country because of Siberia. There are also Russian submarines on display in Long Beach and San Diego, California, from the Cold War era. I know I have a lot to learn about Russia.

Dear JuliaRussia is the largest and biggest country in the world. So only it got lots of mixed cultures, different dialects, and expressions of languages. russia had a varied climatic feauture.. russia is included both in europe and asia..called Eurasia. Russians have a greatest gesture and most loving people i ever know. russian ballet is world famous. russian dances, especially belly dance is an emergent dance form. And i love russians for their frankness, loving nature, wide heart and friendly natutre.,. Russian Revolutionary Socialist writers like karl Marx, Maxim Ghorky are world famous..their ideas reflect even young minds of today. Lenin and stalin are the symbol of true leaders. I love Russians...especially i loves my dear friends of russia very much.

Russia is a great country with rich history, I learned russian history during highschool and I will never forget the Romonovs, I like the Russian Ballet and I hope someday I will be given a chance to go to Russia to visit Moscow and St. Petersburg.
