More information about the video content bellow:
1. The Republic of Bashkortostan, also historically known as Bashkiria, is a federal subject of Russia. With a population of 4,072,292 as of the 2010 Census, Bashkortostan is the most populous republic in Russia. Bashkortostan, the first ethnic autonomy in Russia, was established on 28 November 1917. The name Bashkortostan derives from the name of the Bashkir ethnic group, also known as Başqorts. While the root of the name is Turkic (being a combination of 'baş', which in Turkish can mean head, chief, main, principal, and 'qort' meaning wolf, one of the animals regarded as sacred to Turkic peoples). National composition of Bashkortostan according to the National Population Census 2010: Russians (36,1%), Bashkirs (29.5%), Tatars (25.4%), Chuvash (2.7%), Mari (2.6%), Ukrainians (1%), people of other nationalities (2.7%).

2. After the early-feudal Mongolian state had broken down in the 14th century, the territory of modern Bashkortostan became divided between the Kazan and Siberia Khanates and the Nogai Horde. The tribes that lived there were headed by bi (tribal heads). After Kazan fell to Ivan the Terrible in 1554–1555, representatives of western and northwestern Bashkir tribes approached the Tsar with a request to voluntarily join Muscovy. After the Russian Revolution of 1917 were All-Bashkir Qoroltays (conventions) on which a decision on the need to create a national federal republic within Russia. As a result, 28 November 1917 Bashkir Regional (central) Shuro (Council) proclaims the establishment in areas with a predominantly Bashkir population of Orenburg, Perm, Samara, Ufa provinces territorial and national autonomy Bashkurdistan.

3. Ufa is one of the most spacious cities in Russia with a population of more than 1 million people. For every citizen in the capital of Bashkortostan there are about 682 sq.m.

4. In 2010, there were more than 1,000 functioning mosques in Bashkiria, over 200 Orthodox churches and more than 60 places of worship of other faiths. Most ethnic Russians, Chuvash, and Ukrainians are Orthodox Christians. Most Mari are Pagan. Non-religious people form a substantial part of any ethnic group in Bashkortostan. There are 13,000 Jews in the republic.

5. Bortevoy honey (that is honey of bees, living not in apiaries, but in hollows of trees) because of the difficulty of its extraction is very expensive: a kilogram of this delicacy costs from 2.5 to 4 thousand rubles.

6. On the Bashkir territory is located the highest of the peaks of the Southern Urals – Mount Yamantau, towering at 1640 meters.

7. In the Bashkir cave, Shulgan-Tash, the painting of the Stone Age has been preserved – this is the only place with similar drawings in the whole of Eastern Europe. There is a legend according to which in this cave inhabited a certain underground people led by the owner of this place – Div. Miraculous creatures supposedly stored in the cave invaluable treasures and weapons that had no equal.

More information on Crimea’s land conflict between the Russian Federation and Ukraine – Land conflicts are often widely debated and can have disastrous effects on individuals, groups and entire nations. As Kids LearningTube, it’s my mission to teach those of all ages the facts and I do not have a personal opinion nor the authority to speak on behalf of territorial rights no matter how emotionally charged or justified the dispute of parties involved. With this said, below are some facts about Crimea since there’s international debate of whether it rightfully is part of the Russian Federation or Ukraine.

In recent history (“History of Crimea,” 1), Crimea became an oblast first of the Russian SSR (1945-1954) and then the Ukranian SSR (1954 - 1991). Since 1991 the territory was covered within independent Ukraine. During the 2014 Crimean crisis, the peninsula was taken over by pro-Russian forces and a referendum on whether to join Russia was held (“Crimean Status Referendum, 2014” 2), which resulted in Crimea being annexed by the Russian Federation. Since the annexation, there has been much debate about whether this is condemned or supported by the international community. At the 2014 UN General Assembly in 2014, 100 countries voted in favor of the position that Russia’s annexation of Ukrainian territory was illegal under international law, 48 countries abstained from voting, and 10 countries backed the Russian Federation (“From A to Z: These are the 10 countries backing Putin’s annexation of Crimea,” 3).

The Russian Federation opposes the “annexation” label, with Putin defending the referendum as complying with the principle of self-determination of peoples. In July 2015, Russian prime minister Dmitry Medvedev said that Crimea had been fully integrated into Russia (“Annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation,” 4)

Religion in Russia

Religion in Russia is diverse, with a 1997 law naming Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, and Judaism as important in Russian history. Orthodox Christianity (Russian: Православие Pravoslaviye) is Russia's traditional and largest religion, deemed a part of Russia's historical heritage in a law passed in 1997. Russian Orthodoxy is the dominant religion in Russia. About 95% of the registered Orthodox parishes belong to the Russian Orthodox Church while there are a number of smaller Orthodox Churches. However, the vast majority of Orthodox believers do not attend church on a regular basis.
