Far Eastern economic region
Far Eastern economic region is one of twelve economic regions of Russia.
Until 2018 it encompassed the same area as the Far Eastern Federal District, which then was enlarged by Buryatia Republic and Zabaykalsky Krai.
This region accounted for 4 per cent of the national GRP in 2008. Bordering on the Pacific Ocean, the region has Komsomolsk-on-Amur, Khabarovsk, Yakutsk, and Vladivostok as its chief cities. Machinery is produced, and lumbering, fishing, hunting, and fur trapping are important. The Trans-Siberian Railroad follows the Amur and Ussuri Rivers and terminates at the port of Vladivostok.Composition
