Answer:
11 time zones
Explanation:
Russia is the largest country in the world. The country is generally stretched by longitude, so it is no wonder that it has numerous times zones. To be more precise, Russia has eleven time zones out of the twenty four time zones, so almost half of them.
The eleven time zones in Russia are named locally and they are:
- Kaliningrad Time
- Moscow Time
- Samara Time
- Yekateriburg Time
- Omsk Time
- Krasnoyarsk Time
- Irkutsk Time
- Yakutsk Time
- Vladivostok Time
- Magadan Time
- Kamchatka Time
The Moscow Time is taken as central time, as Moscow is the center of Russia in many aspects, and plus this time zone occupies the area where the majority of the population lives and the majority of the industry is located.
Kaliningrad is the westernmost time zone, also occupying the least territory, while Kamchatka is the easternmost time zone where the Sun first rises in Russia.
