|rels= Predominantly [[Russian Orthodox Church|Russian Orthodox]]. Some Russians are [[Old Believers]] (a relatively small group of Orthodox Christians). Small minority of Russians are [[Protestants]]. Many consider themselves [[Agnostics]] or [[Atheists]]. |

}} |
|||
'''Russians''' ({{lang-ru|Русские—''Russkie''}} ) are an [[East Slavs|East Slavic]] [[ethnic group]], primarily living in [[Russia]] and neighboring countries. |
|||
The [[English language|English]] term ''Russians'' is also used to refer to [[citizens]] of Russia, regardless of their ethnicity (see ''[[demographics of Russia]]'' for information on other nationalities inhabiting Russia); in [[Russian language|Russian]], this meaning is covered by the recently revived{{Fact|date=August 2007}} term ''Rossiyanin'' (Россиянин, plural ''Rossiyane''). According to 2002 [[census]], ethnic Russians make up about 80% of the population of Russia [https://www.cia.gov/library/publications/the-world-factbook/geos/rs.html]. |
|||
==Origins== |
|||
*''See the article about the old legend [[Lech, Czech and Rus]]''. |
|||
*''See the article about the [[Primary Chronicle]]''. |
|||
Russians predecessors were the medieval [[Early East Slavs|East Slavic nation]] [[Rus' (people)|Rus’]], who were also the predecessors of [[Belarusians]] and [[Ukrainians]]. |
|||
Very little is known about the Russians and [[East Slavs]] in general prior to approximately 859 AD, the date from which the account in the [[Primary Chronicle]] (a history of the Ancient Rus from around 850 to 1110 originally compiled in Kiev about 1113) starts. |
|||
By 600 AD, the [[Slavs]] had split linguistically into southern, western, and eastern branches. The East Slavs flooded Eastern Europe in two streams. One group of tribes settled along the Dnieper river in what is now Ukraine; they then spread northward to the northern Volga valley, east of modern-day Moscow and westward to the basins of the northern Dniester and the Southern Buh rivers in present-day Moldova and southern Ukraine. |
|||
Another group of East Slavs moved from Pomerania to the northeast, where they encountered the Varangians of the Rus' Khaganate and established an important regional centre of Novgorod. The same Slavic population also settled the present-day Tver Oblast and the region of Beloozero. Having reached the lands of the Merya near Rostov, they linked up with the Dnieper group of Slavic migrants. |
|||
==Emergence of Russian ethnicity== |
|||
[[Image:RussianChildrenOnAHillside.jpg|thumb|A group of Russian children, 1909. [[Sergei Mikhailovich Prokudin-Gorskii]].]] |
|||
<!-- FAIR USE of RussianChildrenOnAHillside.jpg: see image description page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:RussianChildrenOnAHillside.jpg for rationale --> |
|||
Early ancestors of the Russians were [[Early East Slavs|East Slavic]] tribes who migrated to the [[East European Plain]] in the early Middle Ages. Most prominent Slavic tribes in the area of modern European Russia included [[Vyatichs]], [[Krivich]]s, [[Radimichs]], [[Severians]] and [[Ilmen Slavs]]. By the 11th century East Slavs assimilited [[Finno-Ugric]] tribes [[Merya]] and [[Muromian|Muroma]] and [[Balts|Baltic]] tribe [[Eastern Galindae]] who also used to populate the same area (modern [[Central Russia]]). |
|||
Ethnic Russians known as [[Great Russia]]ns (as oppose to [[White Russia]]ns and [[Little Russia]]ns) began to be recognized as a distinct ethnic group in the 15th century, when they were referred to as [[Muscovy|Muscovite Russians]], during the consolidation of Muscovy Tsardom as a regional power. Between 12th and 16th century Russians known as [[Pomors]] migrated to Northern Russia and settled [[White Sea]] coasts. As a result of the migrations and Russian conquests (following liberation from the [[Mongol invasion of Russia|Mongol]] [[Golden Horde]] domination) during 15th-16th centuries Russians settled the [[Privolzhsky (Volga) Federal District|Volga]], [[Urals Federal District|Urals]] and [[Southern Federal District|Northern Caucasus]] regions. Between 17th and 19th centuries Russian migrants settled the vast sparsely inhabited areas in [[Siberia]] and [[Russian Far East]]. A major role in these territorial expansions and migrations was played by the Russian [[Cossacks]]. |
|||
According to most ethnologists ethnic Russians originated from the earlier [[Rus' (people)|Rus' people]] (East Slavs of [[Kievan Rus]]), and gradually evolved into a different ethnicity from the western Rus people who became the modern-day [[Belarusians]] and [[Ukrainians]]. Between 15th and 18th centuries modern Russian language gradually developed from the [[Old East Slavic language|Old East Slavic]] and [[Church Slavic language|Church Slavonic]] languages. |
|||
Some ethnologists maintain that Russians were a distinct Slavic group even before the time of Kievan Rus. Others believe that the distinguishing feature of the Russians is not primarily their separation from Western Rus, but that ethnic Russians are a mix of East Slavic and non-Slavic (for example Finno-Ugric, [[Germanic peoples|Germanic]], and Baltic) tribes. However, the origin of the [[Slavic peoples]] is itself a matter on which there is no consensus. |
|||
They were classified as a ''Narodnost'' in the [[First All Union Census of the Soviet Union]] in 1926. |
|||
==Population== |
|||
Russians are the most numerous ethnic group in Europe and one of the largest in the world with a population of about 140 million people worldwide. Roughly 116 million ethnic Russians live in [[Russia]] and about 20 million more live in the neighboring countries. A relatively significant number of Russians, around 3 million, live elsewhere in the world, mostly in the [[Americas]] and [[Western Europe]], but also in other places of [[Eastern Europe]], [[Asia]] and elsewhere. |
|||
[[Image:Russians.jpg|thumb|left|Russians in traditional dress]] |
|||
==Culture== |
|||
{{main|Russian culture}} |
|||
Russian culture is one that is rich and colorful. Russians have a rich [[Russian cuisine|cuisine]]. [[Russian culture#Art|Russian art]] is very important and considered by many to be very unique and some of the most importent painters in the world are Russian. Russians are also known for their sense of [[Russian humour|humour]]. [[Russian literature]] was greatly influential to world literature. Russians also gave the [[classical music]] world some very famous composers. |
|||
==Language== |
|||
{{main|Russian language}} |
|||
'''Russian''' (<span class="unicode audiolink">[[:Media:Ru-russkiy jizyk.ogg|{{lang|ru|русский язык}}]]</span> <span class="metadata audiolinkinfo"><small>([[Wikipedia:Media help|help]]·[[:Image:Ru-russkiy jizyk.ogg|info]])</small></span>, [[Romanization of Russian|transliteration]]: ''{{transl|ru|ALA|Russkiy yazyk}}'', {{IPA|[ˈruskʲɪj jɪˈzɨk]}}) is the most geographically widespread language of [[Eurasia]] and the most widely spoken of the [[Slavic languages]]. Russian belongs to the family of [[Indo-European languages]] and is one of three (or, according to some authorities, four) living members of the [[East Slavic languages]], the others being [[Belarusian language|Belarusian]] and [[Ukrainian language|Ukrainian]] (and possibly [[Rusyn language|Rusyn]], often considered a dialect of Ukrainian). |
|||
Written examples of Old East Slavonic are attested from the 10th century onwards, and while Russian preserves much of East Slavonic grammar and a [[Proto-Slavic language|Common Slavonic]] word base, modern Russian exhibits a large stock of borrowed international vocabulary for politics, science, and technology. Due to the status of the [[Soviet Union]] as a [[super power]], Russian had great political importance in the 20th century, and is still one of the [[United Nations#Languages|official languages]] of the [[United Nations]]. |
|||
Russian has [[palatalization|palatal]] [[secondary articulation]] of [[consonant]]s, the so-called ''soft'' and ''hard'' sounds. This distinction is found in almost all consonant [[phoneme]]s and is one of the most distinguishing features of the language. Another important aspect is the [[vowel reduction|reduction]], or drawling, of [[stress (linguistics)|unstressed]] [[vowel]]s, not entirely unlike a similar process present in most forms of [[English language|English]]. Stress in Russian is generally quite unpredictable and can be placed on almost any syllable, one of the most difficult aspects for foreign language learners. |
|||
==Religion== |
|||
{{main|Religion in Russia}} |
|||
[[Russian Orthodox Church|Orthodox Christianity]] is a dominant faith among the Russian people. More specifically, the vast majority of Russian believers belong to the [[Russian Orthodox Church]], which played a vital role in the development of Russian national identity. In other countries Russian faithful usually belong to the local Orthodox congregations which either have a direct connection (like the [[Ukrainian Orthodox Church - Moscow Patriarchy|Ukrainian Orthodox Church]], [[Wiktionary:autonomy|autonomous]] under the [[Patriarch of Moscow]]) or historical origin (like [[the Orthodox Church in America]] or a [[Russian Orthodox Church Outside of Russia]]) with the Russian Orthodox Church. |
|||
Even non-religious Russian people mostly associate themselves with Orthodox faith for cultural reasons. Some Russian people are [[Old Believers]]: a relatively small [[Schism (religion)|schismatic]] group of the Russian Orthodoxy that rejected the liturgical reforms introduced in the 17th century. |
|||
Despite continuing growth in religious observance since Soviet times, church attendance rates in Russia are relatively low. |
|||
Other world religions have negligible representation among ethnic Russians. The most prominent are [[Baptist]]s with over 85 000 Russian adherents.<ref>[http://www.adherents.com/Na/Na_639.html Adherents.com statistics]</ref> others are mostly [[Pentecostals]], [[Evangelicals]] and [[Seventh-day Adventists]]. |
|||
For the last decades the Slavic paganism seems to gain certain popularity and there are many web-sites dedicated to the study of the [[Slavic mythology]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://triglav.ru/|title= A web-site with information about current pagan activity in Russia. |language=Russian}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://paganism.msk.ru/index.htm |title= A site with a lot of information on Slavic Paganism.|language=Russian}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://slavn.org/ |title= A Slavic spiritualism site calling for returning to the roots. |language=Russian}}</ref> |
|||
==Russians outside of Russia== |
|||
{{main|Russian diaspora}} |
|||
Ethnic Russians historically migrated throughout the area of former [[Russian Empire]] and [[Soviet Union]], sometimes encouraged to re-settle in borderlands by Tsarist and later Soviet government. On some occasions ethnic Russian communities such as [[Lipovans]] who settled in [[Danube delta]] or [[Doukhobor]]s in [[Canada]] immigrated as religious dissidents fleeing the central authority. |
|||
After the [[Russian Revolution of 1917|Russian Revolution]] and [[Russian Civil War]] starting in 1917, many Russians were forced to leave their homeland fleeing the [[Bolshevik]] regime, and millions became refugees. Many [[white emigre|white emigrés]] were participants in the [[White movement]], although the term is broadly applied to anyone who may have left the country due to the change in regime. |
|||
Today largest ethnic Russian diasporas outside of Russia live in former Soviet states such as [[Ukraine]] (about 8 million), [[Kazakhstan]] (about 4.5 million), [[Belarus]] (about 1.2 million), [[Latvia]] (about 700,000), [[Uzbekistan]] (about 650,000) and [[Kyrgyzstan]] (about 600,000). Over a million of [[Russian Jews]] emigrated to [[Israel]] during and after the [[Refusenik (Soviet Union)|Refusenik]] movements, some brought ethnic Russian relatives along with them. There are also small Russian communities in the [[Balkans]], Eastern and Central European nations such as [[Germany]], as well as in [[China]], [[Latin America]] and [[Australia]]. These communities may identify themselves either as Russians or citizens of these countries, or both, to varying degrees. |
|||
The governments and the majority public opinion in [[Estonia]] and [[Latvia]], which has the largest share of ethnic Russians among the [[Baltic countries]], hold the view that many of the ethnic Russians arrived in these countries as part of a Soviet-era [[colonization]] and deliberate [[Russification]] by changing the countries' ethnic balance. Among the many Russians who arrived during the Soviet era most came there for economic reasons, or in some cases, because they were ordered to move. |
|||
People who had arrived to [[Latvia]] and [[Estonia]] during the Soviet era, mostly Russians, were only provided with an option to acquire naturalised citizenship which required passing a test demonstrating knowledge of the national language as well as knowledge of the country's history and customs. The language issue is still contentious, particularly in Latvia, where ethnic Russians have protested against plans to educate them in the national language instead of Russian. Since 1992, Estonia has naturalized some 137,000 residents of undefined citizenship, mainly ethnic Russians 136,000, or 10 percent of the total population, remain without citizenship. |
|||
[[Image:Russians ethnic 94.jpg|thumb|400px|Ethnic Russians in former Soviet Union states]] |
|||
Although not among the largest immigrant groups, significant numbers of Russians emigrated to [[Canada]], [[Australia]], the [[United States]] and [[Brazil]]. [[Brighton Beach]], in the [[New York City]] borough of [[Brooklyn]], is an example of a large community of recent Russian immigrants. Another one is in [[Sunny Isles Beach]], a northern suburb of [[Miami]]. At the same time, many ethnic Russians from former Soviet territories have emigrated to Russia itself since the 1990s. Many of them became refugees from a number of states of [[Central Asia]] and [[Caucasus]] (as well as from the separatist [[Chechen Republic]]), forced to flee during political unrest and hostilities towards Russians. |
|||
Both the [[European Union]] and the [[Council of Europe]], as well as the [[Russian government]], expressed their concern during the 1990s about minority rights in several countries, most notably [[Latvia]]. In [[Moldova]], the Russian-dominated [[Transnistria]] region broke away from government control amid fears the country would soon reunite with [[Romania]]. In June of 2006 Russian President [[Vladimir Putin]] announced the plan to introduce national policy aiming at encouraging ethnic Russian to immigrate to Russia.

|||
===Russian Chinese=== |
|||
After the [[Russian Revolution of 1917|Russian Revolution]] in 1917, many Russians who were identified with the [[White army]] moved to [[China]] — most of them settling in [[Harbin]]. Many of these Russians had to move back to the Soviet Union after [[World War II]]. Today, a big group of people in northern China can still speak Russian. |
|||
[[Ethnic Russians in China|Russians (''eluosizu'')]] are one of the [[Nationalities of China|56 ethnic groups]] officially recognized by the [[People's Republic of China]] (as ''the Russ''), and there are approximately 15,600 Russian Chinese living mostly in northern [[Xinjiang]], and also in [[Inner Mongolia]] and [[Heilongjiang]]. See also [[Harbin Russians]] and [[China Far East Railway]]. |
|||
==Contribution to humanity== |
|||
Russian people have greatly contributed to the world of [[science]] and [[arts]]. Notable Russian [[scientists]] include [[Dmitri Mendeleev]], [[Alexander Stepanovich Popov]], [[Alexander Lodygin]], [[Pavel Yablochkov]], [[Nikolai Yegorovich Zhukovsky]], [[Ivan Kulibin]], [[Vladimir Zworykin]], [[Sergey Korolyov]], [[Konstantin Tsiolkovsky]], and [[Mikhail Lomonosov]]. |
|||
Thanks to writers such as [[Fyodor Dostoevsky]], [[Leo Tolstoy]], [[Ivan Turgenev]], [[Anton Chekhov]], [[Alexander Pushkin]], and many more, [[Russian Literature]] is considered to be among the most influential [[literature]] in the world. In the field of the novel, [[Leo Tolstoy|Tolstoy]] and [[Fyodor Dostoevsky|Dostoevsky]] in particular were titanic figures, and have remained internationally renowned, to the point that many scholars have described one or the other as the greatest novelist ever.<ref> "Russian literature." Encyclopædia Britannica. 2007. Encyclopædia Britannica Online. 16 July 2007 <http://www.britannica.com/eb/article-29157>.</ref> |
|||
Great [[Russian composers]] include [[Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky]], [[Dmitri Shostakovich]], [[Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov]], [[Sergei Prokofiev]] and [[Sergei Rachmaninoff]]. |
|||
A fact which the Russian people are proud of is the large part, larger than anybody elses part, that the Russian people had in the victory over [[Nazi Germany]] at [[World War II]]. During the war, the [[Soviet Union]] lost around 27 million citizens (most of them Russian), about half of all [[World War II]] casualties and the vast majority of allied casualties. The Eastern Front contained more combat than all the other European fronts combined; the [[German army]] suffered 80% to 93% of all casualties there. It was on the Eastern Front that the war was won or lost, for if the [[Red Army]] had not succeeded against all the odds in halting the [[Germans]] in 1941 and then inflicting the first major defeats at [[Battle of Stalingrad|Stalingrad]] and [[Battle of Kursk|Kursk]] in 1943, it is difficult to see how the western democracies, [[Britain]] and the [[United States|US]], could have expelled Germany from its new empire.<ref>WWII historian [[Richard Overy]], [http://www.guardian.co.uk/comment/story/0,,1478592,00.html We must not forget how war was won].</ref> |
