anyways forget about this union and thread. Russia doesnt need poor koreans to feed. We should rather cooperate more with China and other asian countries.
Despite being poorer on average, the nation of Russia can still kick both north and south Koreas' a$$ from left to right easily.Poor Koreans.... lol
Your income, $18,000 (adjusted for Purchasing power) is under the level of poverty in the United States.
Your average income is HALF the average African-American income.
Who are you to talk about poor? You are one of the 5 bottom sh!ttiest White countries in the world.
Do you also think its time for a North East Asian Union against Americas and Chinas Influence?
Russia, Korea and Japan are all isolated in global politics without an independent voice unlike the EU, China and America. Russia has maybe some saying in middle east but it lacks power in asia.

Stop putting down Russia to make someone else look good, because in the world no one would do anything internationally without thinking how Russia would feel about it.

Russians have the largest land area in the world, with the most natural resources per capita of any major nation, yet living on the equivalent of $18,000.
Russians were first in spaceSo what? Do you think this is the hallmark of intelligence or civility? The ability to destroy a nation?
But it didnt happened. For one to acquire so much land and to hold it someone has to have a brain and not luck.You sound like a savage. If there were 150 million Koreans, in a land area as large as Russia, there would be no competition.
Country and Lending Groups | DataThe fact that we are within the top 5 in population density, with few natural resources to speak of, yet are a high-income society and one of the top 10 most developed countries, is a testament to our resourcefulness.
what for BS, Russias gdp per capita is 23.5 thousand dollars
GDP per capita, PPP (current international $) | Data | Graph
Its the same like greece. Russia is the 4rth richest eastern european country only slovenia, czech and slovak republics are richer.
Korea 30.7 thousand vs Russias 23.5. So if Russia is ****? Korea is 24 % less shittier, you insult your self and your own country by saying russia is ****.

So what we are high income too now too. so what you gonna pick up now?
Yes, the S.Korea is a rich developed country we all knew it. I wasn't gonna tell you yet, i think the security of the Korean peninsula not by S.Korea but still handled by some foreign countries.Russia GDP (PPP) per capita 2012: $17,709
South Korea GDP (PPP) per capita 2012: $32,272
So S. Koreans are 82% richer than Russians, and in 2013 S. Korea is expected to have a GDP (PPP) per capita of $35,000.
World Economic Outlook Database April 2013
Also, income is not the only indicator for how "sh!t" a country is.
Russia homicide rate 2012: 10.2 per 100,000
South Korea homicide rate 2012: 0.38 per 100,000
Russians are 27x more likely to kill each other than Koreans. Just to compare, Black Americans are 9x more likely to kill someone compared to White Americans.
United Nations global study on homicide - List of countries by intentional homicide rate - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
S. Korea life expectancy 2011: 81 years
Russia life expectancy 2011: 69 years
Out of 193 countries, Russians place 118th, while South Koreans places at 17th.
I can keep going, but it's unnecessary. You get the picture.
Do you also think its time for a North East Asian Union against Americas and Chinas Influence?
Russia, Korea and Japan are all isolated in global politics without an independent voice unlike the EU, China and America. Russia has maybe some saying in middle east but it lacks power in asia.
Population
321.098 Million People similar to America (314) and the Eurozone (333)
Economy
GDP would be 9.1 Trillion Dollars above china while the Eurozone has 12.2 Trillion Dollars.
And the gdp per capita would be 28.35 thousand dollars which that of a developed country still despite having russia in it. The eurozone has 36 thousand dollars. And there would still be room to grow for russia and korea.
In Purchasing power the gap becomes even smaller to the Eurozone with only 11.9 trillion dollar economy and a gdp per capita of 33 thousand dollars for very european. While the north east asian union would have 9.4 Trillion and a living standard of 29.2 thousand dollars for every person and again there is room for all 3 to grow in purchising power even japan which has very low purchasing power in comparison to its nominal gdp.
Resources
together with russia north east asians have access to all the siberian recources. All 3 can complement each other in their economic field. Japan is strong in investment and finance as well as technology, korea is stronger in manufacturing while russia has the resources. If all 3 trade in their own currency they could boost their value and be less dependent on US dollars especially russian recourse which improves all 3 currencies as global reserve currencies with trading. So basically the countries dont compete that much with each other if they would be in a union with china or the US for example. There is only competition with korea and japan but russia can rely more on resources and doesnt need to be a manufacturing powerhouse like japan to be rich.
Technology and manufacturing
Manufacturing would be 1.656 trillion dollars its not far away from the US and china and russia has still potential to grow in that segment as there is a lot of soviet technology left which can be invested into. Automotive production for example would be 16.732 Million cars which is not far away from china and even more than the US. And again there is room to grow for russia. Not to mention about all the korean and japanese electronic and other manufacturing brands along strong russian military industrial complex which are all established.
Agriculture
With russian land and japanese and korean farmers, north east asians could try to grow food on russian land and establish a huge agriculture powerhouse in the union. This would bring a lot of food security for all 3.
Military and Geopolitics
The union would have the largest army in the world thanks to korean and russia troops. Russian military is already very strong thanks to industrial complex with korea and japanese technology all 3 could establish very advanced weapons.
also Russia spends almost as much as korea and japan together plus them the union would replace china in military spending. And again there is still room to grow if the other two would also spend 4% of their gdp into arms like russia to something like 500 billion.
Expansion and balance
Mongolia and Northkorea could also join one day. The good thing about this union would be that all members are equall in population. Japan and russia arent that different in population and korea is making something like 40% which could be more with north korea together while russia is the poorest member which makes it even. if china for instance would be in that kind of union with 1.3 billion people which some people proposed, this union would be extremely unbalanced with korea and japan being much smaller so more china grows. The US is also not a small country anymore with twice and a half people more than japan and being much more developed than japan.

RICH didn't mean global power and strong foreign diplomacy, specially for a rich small country. In North-East Asia(Including Russia, Japan, China, S.Korea, N.Korea) they r 4x powerful countries but only 2x r BIG & POWERFUL countries (21 century huge war potential = big lands + huge population + strong military forces + thousands of nukes ).
Compared the GPD per capita is pointless, Russia has enormous amount of natural resources and top class military technology, something that both North/South Korea would dare to dream of.
Don't be cocky in front of Russia, even China still needs to be humble, while USA can't neglect Russia's nuclear stockpile, because of some small achievements, South Korea should learn not to behave in front of the big boy.
Japan is a prime example you should learn from, they behaved cocky in front of the big boys when they believed they were actually something, but two nukes just taught them to go back where they belonged.
Ok.... Canadian
Singapure, hongkong, macau and taiwan are all richer than korea in gdp per capita. Han chinese proved they can be successful being small in numbers so i dont get your point.The only reason that Korea is not a "BIG & POWERFUL country" is because of the population size. It has literally nothing to do with being civilized or intelligent. If Koreans lived in China and had the China population size, and Chinese lived on the Korean peninsula with the Korean population size, who do you think would be the "BIG & POWERFUL country"???
In this day and age only barbarians would consider nuclear warheads and militaries to be more important than wealth, prosperity, advancement, and intelligence.
At the end of the day, people are not immigrating to "Great power" of Russia, but would love the chance to get into Korea. People are trying to get into pacifist Sweden over the militarized Iranians.
IMF ppp data is all BS. They are using outdated conversation rates. While worldbank updated its data for OECD countries and partner countries. Just look at nominal gdp per capita russia is outplacing almost all the eastern european countries showing imf data is bogus.Russia GDP (PPP) per capita 2012: $17,709
South Korea GDP (PPP) per capita 2012: $32,272
