I am honestly unaware of why I initially picked Russia for my country comparison for this blog. Yet through some research, I have found some extremely interesting contracts between the two countries. First, let us begin with how each country views raising their children. In the US we attempt to raise our children by ourselves with only occasional help from our parents but basically making it up along the way. In Russia, it couldn't be more opposite. As Gorman states in "How to Parent Like a Russian", that it "takes a village to raise a child". By saying this she is referring the everyone being involved in shaping the child's life. The grandmothers or "babushka" will immediately tell you if she doesn't approve of what your child is wearing or doing. This practice is normal since Russia has remained traditional in their child-raising styles. This meaning you raise your children just the way your mother raised you and so on because that is how it is and how it will remain.
Secondly, in the US we have "helicopter parents" who are highly

In Russian "there's no such thing as overdressed" whether it is for the children's play previously mentioned or simply a stroll outside. For performances, it would easily be aquated to children's oscar worthy outfits every time there is a fine arts event. The other overdressed situation occurs when it comes to dressing for the cold. Russians believe if you don't dress warm, you'll instantly receive a cold. This overdressing is slightly more understandable when put in the context that if you sit on cold stone steps you will freeze the eggs in your ovaries. These are a few of the contrast I found between the United States and Russia. I am such that there are plenty more differences but it is always interesting to see how the world changes from one hemisphere to the
Comparison and contrast of evident similarities and bright contrasts between United States of America and one of the European country – Poland. Both of the countries have similar environment, geographic shapes: mountains, seas, lakes and forests, but different climates. There also differences between politic, religion, nation, history, and culture.
One similarity is that there are very cold winters. Both countries are four season long and are located near the north. Also, the two countries are Christian countries.
Are all of the countries in North America identical? Sure, they might have a few similarities, such as government system or language spoken, but they are all vastly unique. Just the same, Feudal Japan and Imperial China, despite being close neighbors, had many differences to them. In this essay, I will list the geographic and political differences between the two former nations. Feudal Japan and Imperial China had many political differences.
The International Boundary separates the United States and Canada, but they are not only separated geographically; they have several differences that distinct them as different countries. For example, the government types are completely different, and these two countries do not even call their leaders the same by the same title. They have several differences, but they are also similar in some ways. They have the same number of branches of government, and those branches perform relatively the same duties. Also, they both acquire a constitution. When the United States and Canada are compared and contrasted, multiple differences and similarities are presented to prove that the two countries are unalike in some ways but also model each other in
The Government Structure also has summaries and differences. Two Similarities being they have 3 branches and bicameral legislators. Also two differences being legislators have different names and that jurisdiction of courts are different.
Russia’s economy is very complex and also very terrible at the same time. Many other economy’s are also like this but Russia’s is a very interesting thing to learn about. Russia’s economy has many things wrong with it that in the long run could probably affected it in a negative way. But it also has many positive things about it.The negatives and the positives are, in my opinion, are equal in Russia economy.
China put economics before politics, while Russia was the other way around. Many different countries have tried to make an effort to put more towards the people and the individual rights they have. Zakaria later goes into detail about Russia and its government. Zakaria describes Russia as “a rich country struggling to modernize” (122). Russia was primarily funded by its natural resources.
The Russian state has been characterized by its strong heritage of powerful, autocratic leadership. This domination by small ruling elite has been seen throughout Russia's history and has transferred into its economic history. Throughout the Russian czarist period, to the legacy of seventy years of communism; Russia has been a country marked by strong central state planning, a strict command economy and an overall weak market infrastructure (Goldman, 2003). Self-interest, manipulation and corruption have all been present in the Russian economy, and have greatly helped the few as opposed to the many. To this day, Russia still struggles with creating a competitive and fair market.
Another difference would be their economy. Technically there is one similarity, but it’s a minor one. The last difference is geography of North and South were completely different. Nonetheless the two sides are really different.
To begin with, there are more things in contrast than there are things in common. One of the differences is that nobody used to be able to come into our the United States in the late 1800s to the early 1900s. The
Before the France and Russia revolutions these two countries were both different but they both had some same aspects while have different ones also. These aspects can be classified as political, economic or social. Even though before these revolutions they were often different but shared some similar situations. The French and Russian revolutions were alike and different in their social, political and economic.
What surprised the most was how similar the US and Finland are. Since it was a different country, in a different continent I expected it to be a lot more different. Some similarities
Comparison and contrast of evident similarities and bright contrasts between United States of America and one of the European country – Poland. Both of the countries have similar environment, geographic shapes: mountains, seas, lakes and forests, but different climates. There also differences between politic, religion, nation, history, and culture.
Another reason that it is natural to compare them is their economic growth has mirrored one another. Both emerged from a war with its economy devastated and its infrastructure in ruins. Both countries changed with the economic climate of the time and took advantage of
Parenting style can be diverse from country to country, but even across country they can be surprisingly similar. As Being from Greece I would like to compare the American parenting style to the Greek parenting style. An interview of my roommate was conducted which showed that her parents were never strict with her and she never had a curfew. Her parents let her make her own decisions. This is how things work in my family as well. My parents let me make my own decisions and take responsibility for any consequences. Apart from that she argued that in her family the mother is in charge of the house and the children’s care whereas the father is less involved. So things are not as different between our families. On the contrary they are rather similar. However, whether parenting styles are pretty much the same it is also very important how a specific parenting behavior takes place. If it takes place under harsh and non-friendly conditions then the child will never know how to act in a good way around people and it will never have the manners that its parents would wanted it to.
