Just Your Everyday Russian Tank

Only in Russia would a tank sitting in the middle of a suburban area be blocked for parking in the wrong spot. In the rest of the world, a tank in the city would be cause for concern. But in the Motherland, it’s alright as long as it’s not parked in front of someone else’s garage door.

Historically, Russia is a war-torn country with a very strong military tradition. According to National Interest, there are about one million active-duty military personnel in Russia and as many as two million reserve forces.
