Answer:

Compared with the years under Communist rule, Russia today has all of these except a lower population.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 implied the independence of the nations that formed it, which adopted democratic systems of government and embraced capitalism as an economic system. Among these nations, there was Russia, the most influential of all Soviet nations.

Upon the fall of the Soviet Union, the Russian population ceased to be under a communist regime, thereby acquiring greater social and economic freedoms. Likewise, private property was established, so many companies decided to invest in the country, which due to its size and population constitutes a large market.

The truth is that the Russian population, although in recent decades has decreased, is much larger than the population of Soviet Russia: although in 1991 the population in Russia was 147,000,000 inhabitants and today is exactly the same number, during the most of the Soviet era, the number of inhabitants was lower than the current one. For example, in 1950 Russia had 113,000,000 inhabitants, and in 1970 it had 130,000,000.

Today the Russian population has grown again, and is expected to exceed 150 million inhabitants by 2025.
