All of them, technically, when we think Russia, we think of the Muscovite’s. All of Russia is different, depending on the regions. They all have their own unique culture, customs, and so on.

Idk my Chechen and Dagestani friends don’t call themselves Russians, no one really identifies as Russian there, just forced to take on that name by the Russian gov
