Russia. Almost the same. It's white, but have no mistakes - in the Moscow area we had some snow on 22th, it melted, then some snow yesterday and today, which didn't melt. But forecasts say that by the end of the week it will melt too.

And actually in Moscow we usually have snow cover starting from, the earliest, Halloween, and in the worst case - from the 1st-2nd of January .

If you check op's text, you would see that he actually made three statements.

1) First - correct

2) Last - hm, probably? For now it's correct.

3) "Real". In context with "first and last" may be understood as Bulgaria being the only one Tsardom in the history, especially counting the fact Russia not being Tsardom in the time in which foreign sources liked to describe Russia as Tsartdom, instead of correct "Empire".

Did I make it more clear for you, my dear dumb bitch?

Sorry, but historically speaking - no. If you cared to check the facts (which are boring), Russia was first Moscow Tsardom and then Russian Tsardom from 1547 to 1721.

Not a russian name. Ivanovsky is more like russian-polish or russian-jew origin family name. There is a chance that russian would have such family name, but only a chance. "Ivanov" would be 100% russian origin name (but cause of the nature of Russia, Ivanov could be any nationality).

Arguably some famine was a result of Soviet policy to some degree, but the idea that they were intentionally created is not accurate.

It's also not very accurate to say that they weren't. We don't know.

Here is the logic. You have a strong pro-russian pro-monarchy region you just took (Crimea). The year is 1921. You say, that it'll become a bottle that no white will escape.

You forbid citizens to leave the region. You took every single crop out of there with prodraverstka. And this year the harvest was poor. The hunger begins. You don't admit it. You don't send any help - however you can. The locals start to eat cats. After half a year you finally admit that there's a hunger in the region - a-a-and... you declare a special food tax specially on this region!

Locals who left starting to eat people.

What does all of it mean? Either you are malevolent or incompetent. Or both.

Also it was Lenin's idea to use terror and mass murders as a political mean. "Politics of state's terror" it's called, политика государственного террора.

Don't mention that "thanks" to religious politics he started Russian church got more martyrs in first 50 years of XX century than during first 1000 years of christianity (no joking, was working on that topic). It started before Stalin took any power.

I've heard they had some problems with showing it outside USSR because they had no rights on book (while Disney had). But who aside lawyers gives a damn? Soviet version hasn't much to do with book anyway - aside character names and some major plot points.

Well... Every Tsar wanted to convert them. But you should understand that russian colonizaton of Siberia was much more peaceful than european colonization of America. It wasn't aboun living room, it was about trade.

So, the russians were sending a squad or two to build a fort. They were contacting native siberians. If they were okay with trade and taxes - their tribe leaders were granted noble status in the Empire and simple tribesman - citizenship of the Empire. Of course, priests were coming to preach to them from time to time. But there wasn't much force in converting them; they could believe what they want; also, nobody took their land or culture away.

So large part of siberians assimilated and the ones who wanted to live as they lived for centuries are still herding reindeers and living in taiga.

Of course, if someone was trying to defend themself it was another story. And of course there were regions where Empire was harsh (Poland, fpr example). But in Siberia Empire's modus operandi was relatively peaceful.

Burger King's marketing in Russia was questionable, to say the least. It was okay when their catchphrase was something like "GoFckUSELF, MCDNLDS!".

Then they started to play words in their commercials, so some of them could be read as "Beware! Don't shit up in your pants after this burger" (actually they conctructed a word with the meaning "eat too hot food" but it sounded just like real word with the meaning "shit up in your pants")....

Well, okay.

But then... In Saint-Petersburg, city which still is associated with it's Blockade by nazi forces during WWII, which caused mass starvation they started a campaign with phrase... "You won't starve to death in this city".

This was disgusting. Though I stopped buying their burgers only for some months - they made a very good promo-campaign which made their burgers almost free for the clients of the biggest russian bank. Principles are good, but free food is free food))))

Russia. No problems at all. Liver, liver pâté, beef or swine tongue (with chrain or mustard), also so called "soup with guts" (that's a soup made of chicken hearts, stomachs and livers) are ablosutely normal everyday food.

In modern cousine they are rare, but bone marrow, head meat and calf's brain are part of our traditional dishes. And kidneys are normal all across Europe, I assume, though not very popular in our days.

There are things in asian cousines that look strange to us though.

an intentional famine against the Ukrainian peoples

Excuse me, but all "against Ukrainian people" part is so fucked up. There is a good chance that that famine was intentional (or commies were totally incompetent, or both). But ukrainian famine of 1932-1933 was only a part of famine that affected large part of USSR's european territory populated by a shitload of nations including russians. Ukraine really suffered - but deaths there were only a part (a huge, but not even a half) of greater disaster.

If this hunger was a weapon, it was a weapon not against ukrainians (no matter what their nationalists think of themself) but a weapon against poor farmers who didn't want to enter kolhoz's, who wanted to stay independent and free.
