I can't fathom why you think a country like Russia doesn't have a powerful economy.

Not just Russia, there are many countries most westerners know nothing about that have more money than one would have expected.

> there are many countries most westerners

Maybe this is meant in a way that makes sense, but what do you mean westerners specifically? Our maps include the same countries as people "from the east of us" (whatever that means on a globe), and we all can consult global statistics. Am I missing something obvious?
