Portugal is only 10.000 square kilometres bigger than one of the Russian's "oblast" (region) I grew up in, and has twice less people living in it than Moscow city residents.
This is why only four people have died. Death toll in Russia in case of a mass revolution would be tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands.
- jventura 5y agoPortugal has 10M people, Russia has 146M, so 4x14,6=58,4.. A similar coup would result only in 58 deaths.. ;)
- rmnc 5y agoMate, this is not something that can be quantified just like that. I have been to the Portugal once, and your people are very peaceful and friendly. I'm afraid this is not the case with rural Russia -- which means that any confrontation would be deadly and very, very bloody. This is exactly why I'm doing what I can, but avoiding any violence. This is not the way we win this.
- jventura 5y agoYou are right, I was only playing with the numbers, hence my smiley on the end of the sentence. Every case is different, violence should be avoided if possible!
