User:Greyhood/Timeline of Russian inventions and technology records
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Timeline of Russian inventions and technology records encompasses the history of technology in Russia, starting from the Early East Slavs and up to the modern Russian Federation, with the main focus on Russian inventions and technology records.
The entries in this timeline are mass products, technologies and single objects, mostly falling into the two categories:
- Indigenous inventions, either having worldwide importance (like arc welding, assault rifle, satellite) or more local significance (like onion dome, khokhloma, ushanka);
- Products and objects with unique superlative characteristics and records associated with them (like Tsar Cannon, AK-47, Arktika class icebreaker).
This timeline includes products and technologies introduced by any citizens and peoples of Russia and her predecessor states, irregarding of ethnicity, and including inventions of naturalized immigrant citizens.
Certain innovations, achieved by a multinational cooperation, also may be included into this timeline, in case Russian side played a major role in such projects. The inventions made abroad by Russian émigrés are not reflected here, but may be found on the list of Russian inventors.
