Hi Arkady, thanks for the information on the USSR's 15 republics; however, according to information I found in the web, Russia comprehends nowadays 21 republics (республики), 48 regions (областей), 7 territories (краёв), 9 autonomous districts (автономных округов), 1 autonomous province (автономная область) and 2 federal cities (города федерального значения), Moscow and Saint Petersburg.
Also according to the same source (Wikipedia), 6 former non-republics were promoted into republics after the dissolution of the Soviet Union: 1) Adygea, on July 3, 1991 (It was a region) 2) Khakassia received republic status on 1991. Other regions received republic status on the last days of the Soviet Union, perhaps for a very short period of time before turning into republics of the new Russian Federation. Anyway, you're russian, I am not; perhaps the source I found is either outdated or simply wrong. If you know this to be the case, please let me know. :-) Henrique ----- Original Message ----- From: "Arkady V.Belousov" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net> Sent: Sunday, July 09, 2006 3:23 PM Subject: Re: [Freedos-user] Russian by UTF-8 in FreeDOS? > Hi! > > 9-Июл-2006 13:22 [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Henrique Peron) wrote to > <freedos-user@lists.sourceforge.net>: > > HP> As far as I know, cp866 is the most commonly used codepage for > russian; > > Yes. > > HP> cp808 was a slight IBM enhancement for russian users to have the Euro > sign. > > I first time hear about it. :) > > HP> which were never assisted.
