A few turns ago I asked about Russian factories. What I should have asked about were Russian resources. The Russians have lost about half their factories, but with the loss of the Caucuses they have lost 70% of their resources, so they have many more factories than resources. How much saved oil do they have left, because if they managed to save a lot, that could keep the extra factories running for some time?

Thanks.
