Question

How would you explain these facts to foreigners 1) Why do Russians build such colossal things as the Cathedral of Jesus Christ the Saviour the Kremlins Palace the Rossiya Hotel in Moscow the Mother Russia Monument in Volgograd?

Answer 1

Every nation likes to build big things, for example, Tour Eiffel in France, London Eye in the UK and skyscrappers in the states. There are a lot of colossal things in other countries as well. Russians are just like others - if the country has money enough it builds big things.
