Extractions: Overview The Russian Far East is on the Pacific rim, north of China and to the west and north of Japan. The region covers an area two-thirds the size of Canada and has a coastline extending 6,000 miles from the Arctic Circle to the Sea of Japan. Siberia, often confused with the Russian Far East, borders the region to the west some 1500 miles from the Pacific. The region is lightly populated with 70% of its approximately 8 million population living in cities and small towns largely in the southeast. The region comprises ten relatively independent geopolitical subregions: the Amur Oblast, the Chukotka Autonomous Region, the Jewish Autonomous Oblast, the Kamchatka Oblast, the Khabarovski Krai, the Koryak Republic, the Magadan Oblast, the Primorski Krai, the Sakhalin Oblast and the Republic of Yakutia. The principle cities are the port of Vladivostok in the far south; Khabarovsk north of Vladivostok and approximately 100 miles inland; the town of Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk on Sakhalin Island; the port of Magadan on the mainland opposite the Kamchatka Peninsula; the port of Petropavlovsk on the Kamchatka peninsula and the port of Anadyr in the far north. The region contains much of the underdeveloped natural resources of Russia and unsurpassed scenic beauty. The taiga (or forest) in the south-east region contains a great variety of wildlife, including the Siberian Tiger, and over 250 species of trees and bushes. The ocean between Sakhalin Island and the Kamchatka Peninsula offers one of the wealthiest fishing grounds in the world. The Kamchatka Peninsula is the home of some 160 volcanoes and has a unique geyser valley. Snow conditions on Sakhalin are so good that the 1972 Soviet Olympic training facility was located there and it is still being used by Sakhalin skiers.

From Tarskaya the Trans-Manchurian heads southeast into China and makes its way down to Beijing. The third primary route is the Trans-Mongolian line, which coincides with the Trans-Siberian as far as the Buddhist enclave of Ulan Ude on Baikal's eastern shore. From Ulan-Ude the Trans- Mongolian heads south to Ulaan-Baatar before making its way southeast to Beijing.

A new Russia is now in full bloom. The defeat of the Russian Empire in World War I led to the seizure of power by the communists and the formation of the USSR . The brutal rule of Josef STALIN (1924-53) strengthened Russian dominance of theSoviet Union at a cost of tens of millions of lives. The Soviet economy and society stagnated in the following decades until General Secretary Mikhail GORBACHEV (1985-91) introduced glasnost (openness) and perestroika (restructuring) in an attempt to modernize communism, but his initiatives inadvertently released forces that by December 1991 splintered the USSR into 15 independent republics.
