“Countries of Foreign Europe. Sobering information about Russia This country is ahead of all the countries of Europe
In what way is Russia ahead of the whole world? What kind of cars do Russians drive? Which family's children serve in the military? What are the main causes of accidents? Where are the ecologically clean regions of the state? What is the age composition of the citizens of the country? Is Russia still the most read? Where do people get their news from? And much more, in a series of articles - "sobering infographics".
It is no secret that our state is not constrained within its borders. The territory of Russia confidently exceeds the territory of Pluto, our state also has no equal in many mineral reserves, but besides this, in what else is Russia the first on the planet?
First in the world:
Mask Zelinsky, kristadin Oleg Losev, tomograph, metro and many many others.
Listing a good half of the patents of the world technosphere owned by Russian scientists and inventors will take too much time.
In addition to the main and most famous discoveries of our outstanding ancestors, among them were those who became a sensation and were in demand only after many years. So Dmitri Ivanovich Mendeleev did not betray the importance of creating a distillation column for oil refining, but years later it became the basis of all modern petrochemistry. Constructor Lutsk, the creator of a four-stroke internal combustion engine, on the contrary, tried to prove that his technology was the future, but was forced to leave for Germany, not finding support for his work in the royal Russia. Many Russian ideas were ahead of their time, were the first, but were realized under other names, at another time or under foreign flags. Not many fewer inventions have also been stolen by the patent offices, resold by cunning businessmen, forgotten in history rewritten and hidden with the help of mass media western states.
Nevertheless, the history of Russia knows no analogies. No other country has experienced so many trials, difficulties, victories and successes, warriors and heroism, threats of defeat and triumphant ascents back to the lost Olympus, in just one hundred years.
Having passed its thorny path, today's Russia, in spite of everything, under pressure, sanctions, inciting local conflicts along the borders and attempts by the collective West to stop our development, nevertheless, the stormy stage of its historical revival is again going through. Not easy, keeping the beat, but moving forward.
Right now, about thirty-seven million cars are roaming the country's roads, 48% of which are domestic models. And although many of them are stamps of the Soviet period, nevertheless, an increasing number of them are collected, or produced from scratch in our country.
The increase in the number of cars entails an increase in traffic accidents.
The pride of the country is its army, which is increasing the number of contract soldiers, conducting constant exercises, constantly modernizing, increasing the quality and combat characteristics units and branches of the Russian troops.
Emergency service in the army, is increasingly ceasing to be a frightening life stage, turning into an overabundance of the number of people who want it at recruiting stations and in the military registration and enlistment offices of the cities of the country.
The ecology of the planet, as well as the ecology of our state, worries everyone who plans to continue to live on our blue space "ball". One way or another, fortunately not by Chinese standards, but unfortunately not by Swiss standards, Russia's ecology is slowly deteriorating. At the same time, in view of our open spaces and territories, this is far from homogeneous. Much can still be changed for the better.
The terrible human tragedy of the nineties, the legacy of the liberals - the monstrous mortality of the Russian population under the name "Russian Cross", when natural decline exceeded natural population growth, was successfully stopped in 2010. Great efforts to combat alcoholism, advertising a healthy lifestyle, programs "young families", the introduction of maternity capital and many others managed to reverse the terrible trend and reach the natural profit of the Russian population. Now, every year, there are only more of us. And not at the expense of migrants and refugees, but thanks to the birth of their own children.
People travel, people work and people relax. Despite the demonization of Russia, we are visited by more and more tourists from all over the world every year.
And if earlier, back in 2005, the citizens of Russia were afraid of how not to slide into real hunger, then already in 2013 stability returned to the population, and the people became concerned about the future of the country. "Brotherly arms" wide open "for us" someone from abroad.
GENERALIZATION
Intellectual potential Russia, its resources, both human and natural, geography, rebelliousness and an indestructible desire to move forward, again, against all odds, pushes our country up.
Slowly and cautiously, Russia is getting out of the economic shackles of domestic politics, confidently pulling out the spokes from under the wheels of foreign policy, preparing its own monetary and financial system together with its allies and organizing friendly international associations.
We will deal with our problems. The main thing is that by that moment, the collective West should not drop that "grenade" with which he, like a monkey, jumps around the globe- igniting conflict after conflict and intrigue after intrigue.
As for the skeptics who will certainly begin to argue that all the successes of Russia are successes "yesterday", let me remind you that "today" in all rooms "International Electron Collider" the plates are duplicated only in two languages ..... Russian and English ... Draw your own conclusions.
