Abstract: Abstract The Russian Federation is home to about 100 indigenous ethnic groups (with main ethnic territory in Russia) and more than 60 ethnicities whose majority live outside of Russia (like Korean or Germans) (Богоявленский, 2013, p. 93). The ethnic majority with 81% of the population are Russians. Only in five of 85 Federal Subjects, the Russians are the ethnic minority (Российская академия наук, 2008) (Fig. 18.1). The mostly minorities live in Caucasian, Ural, and Volga regions, as well as in the Far North, Siberia, and the Far East (Table 18.1).
