    But these are some of the things that make Russia so interesting, strong and popular in the world.

    Aren't we deliberately choosing to be boring if we don't want to be associated with cheeki breeki?

    The problem of the discoverer of vodka was best solved in France: Russian vodka is called vodka, and Polish is called wodka. In any case, there are differences in the technology - in Poland they like to use potatoes to get pure spirit, and in Russia - wheat, rye or barley.

    Hungarians share the same opinion. It is partly has to do with generalizing Eastern Europeans as one. And excluding cultural traits that are both western and Eastern European. When talking about exclusive products for example. Nobody knew what Tokaj is. Only when they first bought it in the national state operas restaurant (30 dollars) for half a bottle.
