Russians are impressed with size and numbers, and much that they do is on a grand scale. This is not unusual for such a vast country. Russians think and act big.
Russians think of themselves as members of community rather than as individuals. The origin of the Russian communalism lies deep in the vastness of the Great Russian Plain. Nature has not been kind to Russia. Much of Eurupean Russia and Siberia is very cold most of the year. In Old Russia, people could do little during winter months. But in spring there was much to be done, and in a short period of time. This explains why Russians offten are inactive for long periods of time and then show bursts of energy. The harsh climate explains the Russian s strength, their ability to overcome hardship, as well as their patience and submission. Climate has also made them cautious. Their cruel climate, harsh history, and sceptical outlook on life have made Russians value stability, security, social order, and predictability, and to avoid risk. To undersand the Russians, one must know where they come from. Published on 07/07/2008 at 10:31
