Is Russian a democracy?

>>70638744
a flawed one but yes

>>70638771
>Putin being in power since 1999 checks out

>>70638843
Medvedev was president for 4 years :^)

>>70638744

>>70638843
wasn't Kohl in power for 16 years?

>>70638744
Believe it or not - yes. The polls are rigged to a certain degree. The support is nowhere near 90% but is definitely more than 50%.
Also, the last elections (which results are on the map) honestly were the most fair and well maintained in the past twenty years.

>>70638744
I think it is a little wrong. ЛДПP has a bigger influence than on that map. My city marked dark blue, but really it is light blue.

>>70638882
the KPRF is shit, it's reactionary and sucks up to the Orthodox Church

>>70638880
>what's a puppet

Sure.

You lads have had like 10 chancellors in 70 years, that's ridiculous

If my president were delivering growth rates like this I'd be happy to have him as a dictator too

>>70639004
Why? That would even somewhat check out with the American regulation of 2 terms.

>>70638744
no, it's a language.

Oh wait, you're Irish, never mind.

I looked it up, there's been 9 but one was only in office for 9 days. 41 of those 67 years have been held by three people all from the CDU and, realistically, it's going to be even longer unless Merkel keels over today
Yanks have had 12 presidents since 49

Hmmmm, that graph omits everything past 2013, I'm sure growth continued to skyrocket though

No Patrick, Russian is a language.

Absolutist monarchy and an orthodox caliphate when?

>50000
That's just how the statistics works. If two people earn 200000 a month and ten other people earn 15000 the average wage would be 45000. The real average wage outside of Moscow is 20000.

South Korea was devastated after the Japanese occupation, had an agrarian economy, and divided into two countries, aggressive neighbor with nuclear weapons, and had almost no resources
and I have not compared the country's territory and population
no luck, no skill, just climate
