Annotation
Globalization, migration, and urbanization caused a notable marginalization of the languages and cultures of ethnic groups in Russia. Their cyberspace agency is a propitious manner to endorse and expand them. 124 websites in 4 broadly used languages in Russia – Bashkir, Chechen, Chuvash, and Tatar, are explored to distinguish their level of cultural and linguistic diversity, their general tilts, their cyberspace representation, and underlying reasons for this.
