// I’d like to tell you about Yakutia. Yakutia is situated in the north-east of Russia. Currently its territory constitute over three million square kilometres(it is equal to the square of five in France), but only one million people live on this vast territory. Yakutia – a region with high levels of natural resource economic potential. // //The capital - the city of Yakutsk.// **//Flag//**

// The flag of the Sakha Republic, in the Russian Federation, is a horizontal four-color. The colors, form the top to bottom stripe, are light blue (3/4 of the flag's width), white (1/16), red (1/16), and green (1/8). The light blue stripe is charged with a white disc in the center. The diameter of the disc is 2/5 of the flag's width. // // The disc represents the northern sun. The light blue, white, and green colors stand for the sky, snow, and taiga landscape respectively. The red symbolizes the courage and constancy of the people. //

**//Population //** // This are mainly Yakuts, Russians and Ukrainians. The indigenous population is mostly represented by Evenks, Evens, Chuckchee and Yukaghirs. //

**//Climate//** // Sakha is known for its climate extremes, with the Verkhoyansk Range being the coldest area in the northern hemisphere. Winters here are extremely cold. Some of the lowest natural temperatures ever recorded have been here. The Northern Hemisphere's Pole of Cold is at Verkhoyansk, where the temperatures reached as low as −67.8 °C (−90.0 °F) in 1892, and at Oymyakon, where the temperatures reached as low as −71.2 °C (−96.2 °F) in 1926. //
