Abstract

Creating a strong economy and increasing social well-being are important primary steps in forming a good country. A country with a strong economy and a good level of social well-being can shift their focus onto other issues that affect certain groups within the country. Because of this, it is important that we discover how to help countries make their economies strong, which we can do by observing how countries with weaker economies grow and develop. This research project looks at the economic growth and development of the Russian Federation from 1990 to 2014, to see how they have developed, and later research will focus on the policies that led to this growth. Data was collected from the World Bank Organization, and then graphed to see how certain statistics have changed between 1990 and 2014. Research has concluded that Russia has developed a strong economy since 1990, and has greatly increased some important factors for quality of life for its citizens. Since Russia has been determined to have developed a strong economy, further research must be done to determine what policies and reforms led to this, so that they may be implemented in other countries that have a weak or unstable economy.
