Chuvash people are extremely peaceful, friendly and hospitable. Our history spreads its roots under the soil of millemiums. The language of the Chuvash is very ancient and unique as well as the culture. The term chuvash itself was introduced somewhere in 15th century, it stands for many tribes of the past which had different historic backgrounds from Asia to Western Europe. That"s why we"re so dissimilar. More than 2 millions of us live in different parts of the world: in the European part of Russia, Urals, Siberia, Baltic countries, Kalinigrad and some live in your country! However, Chuvash Republic is home for all the Chuvash with its capital in Shupashkar/Cheboksary, which is a very quiet, cosy and beautiful city on the Volga.
