I did it because I couldn't find a lot of achronological maps of Russia on the web, at least not any accurate ones. If you have any questions about it, or if there are any territories I've missed, please let me know. I'm not doing the names of the territories or listing the time periods since that isn't the purpose. This contains territories of the Russian Empire and Republic, as well as the Soviet Union.
Let me also define what each line's definition(in my own words) is on the key:
The first line means Russia de jure and de facto controlled a territory, and annexed it into its empire/nation/union.
The second line means that Russia set up or controlled a government of some kind in that territory and were staying indefinitely or for a set amount of time.
The third line means that Russia's army occupied the area and were not challenged militarily by any other power, but did not set up any sort of administration or government that they controlled.
The fourth line means Russia had people working for them in the governments of the zone demarcated, or a fighting force/militant group in that area that relied on Russia to survive. For the second situation, specifically in China, the border is set at the time the fighting force/militant group won.
The 5th line means Russia set up land charters and/or exploration of that area, but it was not formally annexed into Russia's territory, did not have (all of) the same rules applied to it, and was not under the complete control of the Russian government all over.
