Geography
The Russian SFSR was the geographically largest Socialist republic within the USSR, maintaining a territory which reached from the Black Sea and Baltic Sea in its most western extremity, to the Pacific Ocean in the east.
History
Government
Workers, peasants, and soldiers aged 18 or older could vote in elections to the All-Russian Congress of Soviets, which later became the Supreme Soviet of the RSFSR. Some local soviets had lower voting ages. Capitalists, landlords, clergy, and former members of the Tsarist police could not vote.[1]
All-Russian Congress of Soviets
The All-Russian Congress of Soviets had one delegate for every 25,000 urban workers and one delegate for every 125,000 people in rural areas. It elected the All-Russian Central Executive Committee.[1]
Local soviets
Regional soviets could have up to 500 members and had one delegate per 25,000 rural population or 5,000 urban population. Provincial soviets could have up to 200 members, with one delegate for every 10,000 of the rural population or 2,000 of the urban population. County soviets had one delegate for every 1,000 inhabitants and could have up to 300 delegates. Village soviets had one delegate for every 10 residents.[1]
