No matter what anyone says, but the Russians are a great nation that plays a significant role in the development of the modern world. And taking into account the centuries-old history, it is worth considering what kind of wisdom is present in this nation, and what contribution it has made to the overall progress of mankind. Today, many people, most often politicians, the nation “Russians” is unreasonably belittled. Let's look at the stages of its development and formation, so that later no one would doubt its significance in the history of mankind.
The nation "Russians" as an ethnographic group
Let's start with the dry facts. It is believed that the Russians, or as they have been called since ancient times, the Russians, belong to the ethnographic Slavic group. It goes without saying that the definition of any nation, as such, is built on the basis of territorial belonging, common moral and cultural values, as well as some common physiological similarities.
In general, the nation "Russians" belongs to the Slavic branch of the development of mankind, but in general terms it is a Caucasoid type of race (one of the most numerous among allpopulation of our planet). Consider all aspects of its origin and evolution from several points of view.
Russians are a European nation: anthropology
If we talk about the nation itself, here the first emphasis should be on some distinctive features of the same appearance, which is quite different from some other nations.
First of all, it is necessary to note some external signs by which a Russian (Slav) can be distinguished from all other representatives of humanity. Firstly, there is a predominance of brown-haired women over blondes and brunettes. Secondly, these people are characterized by reduced growth of eyebrows and beards. Thirdly, representatives of this nation have a moderate width of the face, weak development of the superciliary arches and a slightly sloping forehead. Fourth, we can note the presence of a moderate horizontal profile with a high nose bridge.
But this is all a purely scientific approach. The nation "Russians" should be considered not only from the point of view of some physiology or belonging to the place of residence, but rather from the point of view of culture, epic and consciousness. Agree, because the understanding of the same issue among Russians, Scandinavians or Americans can have different options. All this is due to history.
The story we don't know about
The fact that Russians live on the Eurasian continent, unfortunately, misleads many. It wasn't always like that. In the light of recent discoveries, it is worth tracing the history of the nation.
Of course, to some it may seem utopian to mention suchmythical country like Hyperborea. It is believed that it existed in the form of an island state like the same Atlantis, but only in a place today called the Arctic. After the global cataclysms that occurred about 12 thousand years ago, representatives of that race, due to a sharp cold snap, began to migrate south, populating the current Central and Eastern European territories. In addition, this, as it is believed, the disappeared civilization gave the world a huge heritage - Vedic wisdom. Even skeptics do not doubt this fact.
Over time, that people divided, mixed with other representatives of humanity, but the main cultural and physiological differences from other nationalities remained, uniting into a race that today is commonly called the Slavs. It includes three main nationalities, only later distributed according to certain ethnic characteristics: Russians, Ukrainians and Belarusians. But such a division happened much later than when there was a single nation "Russians".
But that's not all. Some modern historians claim that the Russians are a nation of slaves. It can be attributed, perhaps, to the dominance of the Soviet past. However, many of these "writers" would be worth delving into history. In fact, if anyone does not know, the nation of slaves is called the Jews, who, under the leadership of Moses, made the exodus from Egypt. So, do not confuse different things.
Russian folk tales and folklore
The nation itself is “Russian”, its traditions and life of those times are associated with the appearance of a kind of folklore. Of course, fairy tales and legends in the form of a national epic,transmitted from generation to generation, any people have, but it is Russian wisdom that has a rather interesting character.
Of course, it is not as heavily veiled as, for example, Eastern philosophy, however, any more or less literate person knows from childhood that "a fairy tale is a lie, but there is a hint in it …" What is most interesting, is that some fairy tales contain real information about the past, despite not some abstract or non-existent images. Researchers of five lakes with healing water near the Okunevo settlement in the Omsk region claim that they have come to understand that fairy tales contain a hidden meaning that may implicitly point to real things or events that took place in ancient times. It is not for us to judge whether this is true or not, nevertheless…
But what's most interesting! Ershov, who wrote his fairy tale "The Little Humpbacked Horse" at the age of less than 19, composed it in this very place, and the cauldrons in which it was necessary to swim represent the sequence of entry into the water of all lakes (in his time only three main lakes were known).
What did the Russian nation give to the world?
In general, let no one be offended, the Russians are the titular nation, which in the near future will lead all of humanity. Russia (Western Siberia) will become not only the main cultural, but also the religious center of the whole world. By the way, one of such legendary prophets as Edgar Cayce spoke about this. A recently interpreted verse was also found inquatrains of Nostradamus.
As for the cultural heritage, here, no matter what anyone says, it is simply impossible to argue. Look, after all, almost all classics of literature or music include the names of Russian figures. And what can we say about such sciences as physics and chemistry? Only Lomonosov and Mendeleev are worth something.
Misconceptions and conjectures about Russian people
Unfortunately, in Western society one can often find some associations with the type of nationalities. For example, the nation "Russians" is often associated with a bear playing the balalaika (usually drunk).
Yes, people like to kiss the green snake, but our man never drinks himself. Look, it’s not without reason that they offer to “think for three”?
On the other hand, even the tradition of serving bread and s alt when meeting a guest or a stranger at home has also become almost international. And this is only the most famous, but if you dig deeper, you can find so many interesting things in history and everyday life that you will have to spend whole years and even decades on the description.
Aryan legacy
Of course, it can be argued that Russians are the best nation, however, from the point of view of respect for other peoples, it is incorrect to do this. There was already one person in history who put the nation above all. I mean Adolf Hitler. He believed that the ancient Aryans from the already mentioned Hyperborea were the forefathers of the Germans.
Russian nation today and tomorrow
In the lightrecent discoveries, as it turned out, the Fuhrer was absolutely wrong. The Aryans were the ancestors of the Slavs, who later spread across the Eurasian continent, but certainly not the Germans, who are more similar to the Scandinavians or the Anglo-Saxons.
However, if we talk about the Russian nation today, even though it still cannot lead the world movement for cleansing from filth, nevertheless, this day is not far off. Who has doubts, read the predictions of those who have never been wrong - Wang and Edgar Cayce. Indeed, according to them, it is Russia and the “Russian” nation that will become the stronghold that will give refuge to the saved civilization.
Instead of afterword
Even biblical sources in a modern interpretation claim that peace will come only when Gog and Magog unite, and this is the West and the East, and the role of the east is assigned precisely to the Russian people. And no "Uncle Sam" can prevent this. The reason, alas, is tritely simple: by that time the United States will simply not be on the world map. And is this why the States are trying so hard to put pressure on Russia (or maybe even “bite off” some of the territories that do not belong to them for their own survival?). I just want to answer: “Do not wake the sleeping Russian bear!”. And then, you know, he can not only play the balalaika or drink vodka, but also crush anyone who dares to poke his nose into his lair. And if he is also in a sleeping state, then certainly no American special forces will help.
