Here in Russia there've been many attempts to create a Russian-based programming language.
The only success story is the scripting language of 1C, the accounting software which is the de facto standard in organizations. It's very popular and there's many job offers for it. The use of Russian language is justified because it would be a pain to try translate all the legal and accounting-oriented terminology specific to Russia into English. Constantly switching between English keywords and Russian variable/class names would also be difficult.
