Russian ruble The Russian ruble or rouble ( "rublʹ", plural: "rubli"; sign: ₽, руб; code: RUB) is the currency of the Russian Federation, the two partially recognised republics of Abkhazia and South Ossetia and the two unrecognised republics of Donetsk and Luhansk. The ruble is subdivided into 100 "kopeks" (sometimes written as "kopecks" or "copecks"; "kopeyka", plural: "kopeyki"). The ruble was

a silver ingot (grivna), hence the name. The word kopek, kopeck, copeck, or kopeyka (in Russian: копейка, kopeyka) is a diminutive form of the Russian kop'yo (копьё)—a spear. The reason for this is that a horseman armed with a spear was stamped on one of the faces of the coin. The word "kopeyka" (in Russian: копейка, kopeyka) is a direct translation of old Lithuanian money "kapa" that bears the same meaning "to chop" in Lithuanian language as does "ruble" in Russian language (for many centuries around 500 000 sq km of contemporary Russia were Lithuanian lands inhabited by Lithuanians and

The Soviet currency had its own name in all Languages of the Soviet Union, often different from its Russian designation. All banknotes had the currency name and their nominal printed in the languages of every Soviet Republic. This naming is preserved in modern Russia; for example: Tatar for "ruble" and "kopek" are "сум" (soom) and "тиен" (tiyin). The current names of several

Only a crazy man would have bought a shipbuilding company without the consent of the [Russian] government. It looked more like an attempt at laundering money, rather than a "reell" investment.

Russian Settlement, Utah Russian Settlement is a ghost town in the Park Valley area of Box Elder County, Utah, United States.

The raise coincided with a seasonal peak in tax payments and left the banking system in a worse state of liquidity than that of August 1998. A subsequent drop in rouble-to-dollar exchange rate and dollar-denominated prices of Russian corporate securities forced investors to crowd out, worsening the positive feedback loop. The interbank money market that traditionally relied on Russian corporate stock as a collateral for the repurchase agreements, immediately imploded in what was called "a crisis of trust" or even "elimination of trust":

As with the goddess Moneta, Juno Moneta's name is derived either from the Latin "monēre", since, as protectress of funds, she "warned" of instability or more likely from the Greek "moneres" meaning "alone, unique". "Moneta" retained the meanings of "money" and "die" well into the Middle Ages and appeared often on

The Russian mafia used Nauru banks to money launder during the 1990s; approximately US$70 billion owned by entities of the Russian mafia were held in Nauru banks. This equated to 700 times the country's annual output. The money was transferred from Russian banks to accounts of banks chartered in Nauru, primarily to evade taxes as an offshore tax haven.

Chud Chud or Chude (, in Finnic languages: tshuudi, tšuudi, čuđit) is a term historically applied in the early Russian annals to several Finnic peoples in the area of what is now Estonia, Karelia and Northwestern Russia. Perhaps the earliest written use of the term "Chudes" to describe proto-Estonians was c. 1100, by the monk Nestor, in the earliest Russian chronicles. According to Nestor, Yaroslav I the Wise invaded the country of the Chuds in 1030 and laid the foundations of Yuryev, (the historical Russian name of Tartu, Estonia).

Rospigg Rospigg is a person from Roslagen. The name origins from the old Swedish word "rosbyggiar" - inhabitant in Roden.

The word is also used in the name for the speedway team "Rospiggarna" in Hallstavik. Linguists and historians consider that "Rospigg" might be related to the name of the Medieval Rus' people, Swedes who settled in what are now Russia and Ukraine and from whose name the names "Russia" and "Russian"
