Soviet component of Russian identity

The National State identity of Russia is based on the language as the basis of cultural communication and the history which forms the basis of self-consciousness of the Russian people. In contrast to many other countries of the CIS, the basis of Russian national identity is recognition of the value of all the periods in Russian history - the pre-revolutionary, Soviet and modern, it's the basis of the unity of the modern Russian society. Rejection of the Soviet historical consciousness component of other CIS countries, except the Republic of Belarus, is the main reason of instability and division in public consciousness.
