    I don’t think you can call all ethnicities in Russia “colonies”. Not every multicultural state is a colonial empire

      Yeah, but that one literally is (you know where Russia came from, right?). You could argue it’s changed, but in the post-Soviet world at the very least you’d be wrong. If you want gory details I suggest Kamil Galeev, he has some pretty close analyses of the system in Dagestan and Chechnya.
