This topic even about Russia anymore? If you want to debate, find a suitable thread or post some awesome russian maps about Finland taking back Russia or something :P.

Still pretty interesting that Russia has only gotten smaller over recent years, when you would expect such a large country to be able to exert control like in Crimea.

Well, it depends what you mean by recent I guess, since in 2014 they did annex Crimea.

I did mention that :P. But yeah I meant since WW2 basically.
