Language: English
Part of speech: name
Senses: examples: text: There then developed the concept of three Rossiia’s:^([sic]) the Major Rossiia, the Minor Rossiia, and the White Rossiia (as in the Synopsis).
ref: 1976, Nicholas L. Chirovsky, On the Historical Beginnings of Eastern Slavic Europe, page 196:
text: […]bilateral treaties subsequently negotiated with regions and republics inside the Federation of Rossiia. […] Specifically he [Mintimer Shaimiev]—the democratically elected leader of the republic who had from the very first stood in the vanguard of Russian federal reforms—was forced personally to protect and defend not only the position of his state, but the interests of all of federal Rossiia.
ref: 2005, Anthropology & Archeology of Eurasia, pages 6, 70, and 81:
text: After the Soviet Union crumbled, Rossiia tried to adopt many Western practices. […] How numerous is this population in Rossiia and thus what is the margin of error in the 2002 census? […] Another category not covered by the census was those who had left Rossiia for a period of a year or more.
ref: 2006, Russian Social Science Review: A Journal of Translations, pages 47, 48, and 66:
text: The population’s confessional structure mirrored multinational Rossiia, with its preponderance of Russians, as well as Belarusians and Ukrainians. According to the date of the center, Orthodox currently comprise 50.3 percent of the population. Muslims 4.0 percent, nonbelievers 44.2 percent, and representatives of other religions 1.5 percent. In such a manner, 55.8 percent of those in Rossiia consider themselves to be followers of various confessions.
ref: 2010, Marjorie Mandelstam Balzer, editor, Religion and Politics in Russia: A Reader, Routledge, published 2015:
text: Under such conditions, Russian scholars and politicians faced a dilemma: either use old recipes to sort out constantly evolving and often ethnically-based conflicts or try to develop new policies. The latter would require developing a new theoretical framework of inter-ethnic/national relations, which was non-existent immediately following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Since the political leadership was quick to proclaim their policy of building Rossiia as a country of Rossiians, inclusive of not only ethnic Russians (Russkiie), but also non-Russians, academic discourse followed.
