Description |
This dataset contains information about the numbers and diversity of livestock in 49 provinces of European Russia based on a census compiled in the 19th century (1864) by the tsarist government. The user will find population counts for the eight most prominent agricultural animals in the region: cattle, reindeer, goats, horses, ordinary sheep, fine-fleeced sheep, swine, and even camels. The data offers invaluable insight into the geography, demographics, and economy of the Russian Empire.
