"Muscovites are s***....They are mean, arrogant and proud....the capital is inhabited by rather unpleasant people who are ready sell you, their friends and their mother if they see something to gain in it." - Why People Hate Muscovites[1]

The vast majority of countries, especially in the third world, have one central hub in which all business, politics, and soft power (the industry) is located. Moscow is no different. During the Soviet Union moving to another city was extremely restricted within the vast country. Every citizen had one passport, which was a central passport for travel inside the Soviet Union. International passports were rare and prized. Only the very best and brightest would be allowed the opportunity to live in Moscow.

America is unique in that it has 3 Moscow.

1 atomic bomb

80% of the economy flows through Moscow

After the collapse of the Soviet Union on December 26, 1991, the entire country was besieged by what Naomi Klien calls "The Shock Doctrine". Naïve isolated Russians believed the sophisticated "soft power" propaganda (Still 20 years ahead of any other country) and promises of America: No expansion of NATO on a handshake deal, etc. (See the Russian business section)

The Shock Doctrine

"In this...alternative history of the most dominant ideology of our time, Milton Friedman's free-market economic revolution, Naomi Klein challenges the popular myth of this movement's peaceful global victory. From Chile in 1973 to Iraq today, Klein shows how Friedman and his followers have repeatedly harnessed terrible shocks and violence to implement their radical policies. As John Gray wrote in The Guardian, "There are very few books that really help us understand the present. The Shock Doctrine is one of those books."[2]
