Republic is a unique media platform that caters to the Russian-speaking audience. Established in 2009 as Slon. ru, Republic is committed to providing in-depth coverage of topics relevant to all citizens, including politics, economics, society, science, technology, business, finance, culture, and the arts.

What sets Republic apart is its approach - it operates as a platform for professional journalism rather than a traditional media outlet. While some content is available for free, the majority is accessible through a paid subscription model. Republic functions as a collection of independent journals, each with its own editorial policy, focusing on topics of interest to its readers.

By subscribing, readers directly support the work of journalists and editors, ensuring that Republic remains financially independent. Additionally, subscribers have the freedom to choose which specific journals or authors they wish to support based on their interest and engagement. With a focus on providing quality information, Republic encourages reader participation, offering the opportunity to become a contributor and start a new journal.

To stay engaged, readers can receive regular updates via email or through the platform, and connect with Republic and its journals across various social media channels
