As part of the Western economic zone 8 economic regions: North, North-West, Central, Central Black Earth, Volgo-Vyatka, North Caucasian, Povolzhsky, Uralsky.
The area of the territory is 4294.4 thousand km2, the population is 112.8 million people.
The Western Economic Zone is the main industrial and agricultural macro-region of the country. Significant production capacities, labor and scientific potential are concentrated here. The economic-geographical position (EGP) of most of the economic regions of the zone is much more favorable than that of the eastern regions. There are a large number of exits outside our country, the territory has a dense network of roads and railways, pipelines and power lines. Natural conditions are milder than in the East, which contributes to the development of the main branches of agriculture, they are more favorable for human life.
Now the Western macroregion provides more than 4/5 of all industrial and agricultural products of the country, more than 9/10 of Russia's financial resources are concentrated here, approximately 9/10 of the scientific potential.
for the urban population is 74%. In terms of the number of cities, the West is ahead of the East by about 3.7 times (862 cities). Almost all millionaire cities (10 out of 12) and even cities with more than 500 thousand people are located in the European part. in the West it is 2 times more than in the East (14 and 7, respectively).
Industry. In the specialization of the Western economic zone, there are regions where the manufacturing industries determine the specialization of the economic complex (Central, Central Black Earth, North-West, Volgo-Vyatsky). In the Volga region and the Urals, there is a combination of raw materials (oil, gas, potash salts) and processing industries. The North Caucasus acts as a large producer and processor of agricultural products. And only the Northern region is very similar to the eastern regions, where the raw material component prevails.
Agriculture... Due to the fact that the Western Economic Zone is the main one in the production of agricultural products, all branches of agriculture typical for Russia as a whole are represented in the macroregion.
Currently, there are two economic zones - Western and Eastern. The most important significance of these zones for the development of Russia is the rationalization of economic proportions. The role of the Western Zone is increasing mainly in the development of mechanical engineering, complex, highly qualified industries that ensure scientific and technological progress. The eastern zone is the main resource and energy base of the country, and in the future, priority will remain for the fuel and energy complex, the development of forest resources, energy and water-intensive industries.
West Siberian economic region
Compound: Altai region, Altai Republic, Kemerovo region, Novosibirsk region, Omsk region, Tomsk region, Tyumen region, including Khanty-Mansiysk autonomous region and the Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous Okrug.
East Siberian economic region
Composition: Krasnoyarsk Territory, including the Taimyr (Dolgan-Nenets) Autonomous District and the Evenk Autonomous District, the Republic of Khakassia, the Irkutsk Region, including the Ust-Orda Buryat Autonomous District, the Chita Region, including the Aginsky Buryat Autonomous District, the Republic of Buryatia, the Republic of Tyva.
Far Eastern economic region
Composition: Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), Primorsky Territory, Khabarovsk Territory, including the Jewish Autonomous Region, Amur Region, Kamchatka Region, including the Koryak Autonomous District, Magadan Region, Chukotka Autonomous District, Sakhalin Region.
Large area, but generally poorly populated;
Significant natural contrasts: "north-south", mountains - plains, coast - continent, as well as the general extreme nature of natural conditions, which creates difficulties in development;
Relative (in comparison with the Western zone) "youth" of the economy;
Huge natural resource potential at a relatively low level of its modern use;
Concentration of the economy to the south, where the best provision of transport, primarily rail;
The relatively great importance of water and air transport in the implementation of intraregional communications.
Eastern economic zone of Russia Eastern economic zone, or Eastern macroregion consists of the three largest economic regions of Russia in terms of territory: West Siberian, East Siberian, Far East. The Eastern macroregion is often identified with the concept of Asian Russia. Area - 12 765.9 thousand km2, population - 31.0 million people.
In terms of area, this part of our country (75% of the entire territory of Russia) is larger than any state in the world. The population (22% of the total population of Russia) is comparable to that of many countries of the world, but it has a negative dynamics in numbers. The vast territory of this economic zone is the country's main reserve for minerals. Now the various resources of Western Siberia are actively used in western regions countries, and oil and gas are also exported to Europe. The proximity to the main centers of consumption led to a greater development of production in Western Siberia. In Eastern Siberia and the Far East, due to their remoteness from the center, only those resources are developed that, according to their specifics (the most valuable, extremely scarce), are necessary for national economy or there is the possibility of exporting them to countries
Asia Pacific region. A huge reservoir of fresh water, Lake Baikal, is a special pride. The vast territories of the Eastern macroregion are areas with harsh natural conditions and belong to the zone of the Far North. In general, we can say that the eastern part of the country concentrates significant resources of coal, gas, oil, iron ore, copper ore, noble and rare metals. More than 3/4 of the country's hydropower and water resources are concentrated in the East, and there are unique reserves of mature timber. The seas of the Pacific Ocean are one of the largest regions in the world in terms of bioresources. Population. Compared to other territories of Russia, the Eastern macroregion has a small population. If in the European part of the country the population density reaches 27 people / km2, then in the Asian part it is 10 times less (2.5 people / km2). The population is concentrated in the south - along the highway
Trans-Siberian Railway. Here, in some areas, the density sometimes rises tens of times compared to the average. The selective nature of development, difficult conditions for farming predetermined the predominance of the urban population. In general, the share of urban residents in the macroregion is 73%. In some constituent entities of the federation, it reaches 85-90% (Kemerovo Region, Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, Magadan Region, Sakhalin Region).
Currently, there are 230 cities and 579 urban-type settlements here. The largest cities in the macroregion are “millionaires” - Novosibirsk (the third largest in the country) and Omsk (the seventh in terms of population). Industry. In the specialization of the Eastern Economic Zone, there are branches of the raw material component: the fuel industry (gas, oil, coal, uranium), ferrous metallurgy (Western
Siberia), non-ferrous metallurgy (Eastern Siberia and the Far East), the forestry complex (Eastern Siberia and the Far East), the fishing industry (the Far East). Eastern Siberia is the largest electric power region. In many constituent entities of the federation, the chemical industry and mechanical engineering are represented, usually focused on local needs.
Agriculture is concentrated in the south of the territory and has mainly a consumer direction, with the exception of grain farming in Western Siberia, fine-wool sheep breeding in Eastern Siberia, and soy and rice growing in the Far East. For the indigenous peoples of the North, reindeer husbandry plays a special role as a traditional industry. Transport. The eastern macroregion is poorly provided with transport.
Rail and road transport in the south, river and sea transport in the north are decisive. Transportation of goods by road trains is possible in winter. It is in the East of our country that new road construction is being carried out. The Moscow-Vladivostok highway (Chita and Amur regions) is being built, submeridional railways on North
Western Siberia and Yakutia. Far Eastern ports are of paramount importance for developing ties with eastern neighbors and creating an East-West corridor. The possibility of developing the territory is associated with large scientific centers of Siberia and the Far East (Novosibirsk, Tomsk, Krasnoyarsk, Irkutsk, Khabarovsk, Vladivostok).
The region occupies a huge territory, far from the central regions of the Russian Federation. The farther from the European part, the more difficult it is to carry out interregional ties.
The Eastern region needs to develop external economic relations with the countries of Eastern and Central Asia.
The transport network is poorly developed, therefore it is necessary to build new roads, especially in the C region, to develop river and air transport.
2. Other conditions are unfavorable (they complicate the development of the territory).
3. Prospect resources are the richest, but their development is more expensive than in the European part of the country.
The economy of the region is based on local resources, but it is necessary to develop the sciences.
4. Very poorly developed infrastructure, difficult living conditions.
Today there are only 348 cities in the world, where the population is more than 1 million people, of which 16 are Russian cities. At the same time, 2 cities from this list are multimillionaire cities - Moscow, with a population of 12 million 300 thousand people, and St. Petersburg - 5 million 200 thousand people.
As of January 1 of this year, Russia numbered 15 cities where the permanent population had a population of 1 million or more. According to Rosstat information dated September 22 of this year, the head of the regional department Federal Service state statistics presented a symbolic certificate to the mayor of Krasnodar on the residence of more than 1 million people in the Kuban capital. This allowed Kuban to take 16th place in the list of Russian cities that have the title of a million-plus city. And this list looks like this:
