I believe the acre was original a plot of land measuring 60 rods by 60 rods. Or it might have been 64 rods square.michel said:

Russia is named Russia because of the Norsemen who travelled down the main rivers and conquered the territory bringing it under a loose confederation. The name of the tribe of Norsemen (Vikings) was "the Rus". Hence we get the word "Russia", the land of the Rus.Solon said:
The Rus were the people the main character of Michael Crichton's "Eaters of the Dead" met and travelled back to Scandinavia with.

The Soviet Union ruled Russia. BUT, mother Russia never left. At it's height, the communist party comprised only about %5 of the Soviet citizens. Go figure!

Christian is mentioned only 3 times.
Acts 11: 26
And when he had found him, he brought him unto Antioch. And it came to pass, that a whole year they assembled themselves with the church, and taught much people. And the disciples were called Christians first in Antioch.
Acts 26: 28
Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.
1 Peter 4:16
Yet if any man suffer as a Christian, let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God this behalf.
