государство
/gosudarstvo/Roman
English meaning: State
Definition
A politically organized territory with a sovereign government. Russia as a state has faced fundamental questions of identity — between Eurasian empire, European nation, and Asian power. Putin's 'sovereign democracy' concept and Eurasianism (Russia as a unique civilization separate from the West) are key ideological frameworks for understanding contemporary Russian foreign policy.
Example
“Россия позиционирует себя как уникальную евразийскую цивилизацию.”
In English: “Russia positions itself as a unique Eurasian civilization.”
Literary Heritage
“Трусость — это самый страшный порок.”
/Trusost' — eto samyy strashnyy porok./
“Cowardice is the greatest vice.”
