Russia has long been a mystery to outsiders. Straddling two continents with the longest land border of any country, Russia has by turn looked East, West and inwards. Raising more questions than answers.

On this day course we will cover the following:-

Session 1 – Looking East – The formation of Russia and spread of Russian Empire (Urals, Siberia through to Alaska/California)

Session 2 – The Soviet Union and Russia’s relations with Central Asia and Mongolia.

Session 3 – Looking West – Russia’s borders within Europe – South Caucasus and Baltic States.

Session 4 – The formation of Ukraine and Moldova (Belarus’?) and their relations with Russia.

This course is now fully booked, but please contact us if you would like to be added to the waiting list in case of any cancellations.
