Answer to Question 1

The growth and dominance of the Russian state was largely the result of its superior military and political organization, which allowed it to subjugate its neighbors. With each stage of expansion, Moscow's relative advantage in power grew, allowing further expansion. The region's physical geography also played a role in Russia's growth. The flat, open terrain and lack of natural borders between regions meant that the Russian state could expand almost limitlessly.

Answer to Question 2

False

Daylight saving time is used in some islands, but not in others—further shifting the hours out of sync with natural time.
