IOTL, Russia had a larger population in the "European region"(not behind the Ural Mountains) than the "Asian region"(behind Ural mountains) possibly due to government policy. How can the Russian government, with a POD in 1788, start encouraging the people to move beyond the Ural mountains and settle there? How effective will the policy be? How will that change world politics, if any?
