Rusia es una vasta nación euroasiática rica en recursos naturales, exportaciones energéticas estratégicas, tecnología espacial avanzada y diversas capacidades industriales.
Rusia se divide en dos partes principales: la Rusia europea y la Rusia asiática. La línea que las separa sigue habitualmente los montes Urales y el río Ural. Aunque la parte asiática es mucho más extensa, la mayor parte de la población de Rusia reside en la parte europea.

Russia's administrative divisions have the same names as their administrative centers (exceptions have the administrative center name following in parentheses). The United States does not recognize Russia's annexation of Ukraine's Autonomous Republic of Crimea and the municipality of Sevastopol, nor their redesignation as the Republic of Crimea and the Federal City of Sevastopol. It similarly does not recognize the annexation of the Ukrainian oblasts Donetsk, Luhansk, Zaporizhzhia, and Kherson
