World's largest country on just 800m2: Amazing 'Tiny Russia' model that will stun you

Imagine shrinking one-eighth of the world down to just 800 square meters. A group of designers have done just that, turning the vast expanses of the Russian Federation into a 3-D, interactive ‘SimRussia’ model of the world’s largest state.

Welcome to Russia’s mini-version of the Truman Show

When day becomes night…

...with the flip of a switch

Compressing nearly 53,000 miles of railroads takes a delicate touch

As does planting 20,000 miniature sunflowers by hand

Because it’s the utmost attention paid to the little things

Which make the big landmarks really shine

And you gotta wonder, do they have dashcams in miniature Russia?

Yeah, they’ve definitely got dashcams

What with all the the bandits...

And bears running about

But miniature Russia really does have it all!

From remote reindeer herders in the north

To beach goers in the south

And everyone else in between

No, really…

Everyone!

They’ve even got their own ‘5’0 foot’ woman

And really, Allison Hayes has nothing on her!
