Russia, Russian, Russian Empire - was the name of our country before October 1917 (according to the Gregorian calendar).In fact, the transfer of the titles of the Emperor Emperor took a lot of time during the solemn rituals, he was the ruler of the Great, Little and White Russia, the Polish king, the great Duke of Finland, the Georgian king, and so on.
After the overthrow of the country's borders autocrat narrowed somewhat in February 1917 with the double-headed eagle disappeared crown, founded the Czech Republic.In the fall of the Soviet government began the procession, then nicknamed "triumphant", with the result that over the rest of the still enormous powers rose proletarian red flag.This fact demanded a change in name of the country.
What until 1937 was a transcript of the RSFSR
to name to name, but how?The name of the first socialist state should clearly define its strategic objectives is a word or two will not do.
In the first twenty years of communist rule at the usual adult citizens abbreviations was different, though similar in the sense transcript.The Russian Federation in the first place was the "socialist", and then later the "Soviet" and federal ".In adopting the Constitution of 1937 two words reversed.Why was this done?Someone might say that just so, and in general, what is the difference.However, it should be recalled, in whose honor was named this basic law, and realize that this person, when doing something, had a definite purpose.So it was done for a reason.Something called the "Russian Socialist Federative Soviet Republic" Joseph Stalin did not like.With what?
Still, Russia
On the question of what is at war, each participant four-year fratricidal carnage, whether White Guard and Red Army, as a rule, replied: "In Russia," or even "For Raseyushku".Despite the long destructive agitation leads to the confusion of minds, the majority of citizens have retained a sense of love for the motherland, also called patriotism.Therefore, the new name without that geographical concepts do not be.The Bolsheviks loved acronyms and abbreviations, and when drafting important sequence in which they made decoding.The Russian Federation was established in Russia, hence the first letter "P".
Soviet Socialist Republic
principal in determining the socialist social formation is the question of ownership of the means of production.At the capitalists and landlords factories and land away.People pass them somehow or did not have time, or forgotten.The peasants were herded into collective farms, the workers were forced to work in "their own" factories, while they live are much worse than before, we can say, hand to mouth.Often quite swollen with hunger.Sometimes, and died from it, and in large quantities, and the Kuban and the Ukraine and the Volga region, and everywhere.At the same time with the people, of course, consulted representatives in parliament (Supreme Soviet of people's deputies) were, nobody argues.Delegates always approve of everything.
Federal
founder of the Leninist national policy was the same General Secretary, namely Stalin.The right to self-determination was one of the pieces of cheese in a large mousetrap, built by the Bolsheviks.Be our, red, and you can even separate from us, - said nationalist marginal proletarians and peasants Communists.If you want, of course.All of the newly created Russian republics in the vast promised benefits, and the country was to be federated.In the letter "F" is decryption.RSFSR let go of all the oppressed peoples, who did not want to be with Russia.At first, what happened, I left Finland, Poland, Lithuania, Estonia and Latvia.The Red Army had not the strength to hold then these territories.
1937.Russian first Soviet!
In 1937, vengeance is already preparing to beef up the slender ranks of the Soviet republics.After two years it was.Implementing the principle of voluntary adherence to the USSR, it was composed of the Baltic countries, Moldova (the then part of Romania) and Western Ukraine.With Finland, of course, it turned out not quite what was the calculation.Anyway, soon all the socialist countries will, on the rights of the union republics.They will be Soviet, such as the Russian Federation.Years of hard struggle for people's power have been taught that so reliable.In the name of Soviet Russia only two transposed letters, then few people paid attention to such unimportant fact.
