That's quite interesting, I noticed the parallels but I never actually discussed it. Is there anywhere I can read on the numbers of people who moved from rural areas or otherwise less-populated cities in Russia to Moscow because of centralization?

I think I saw somewhere some statistical tables on population dynamics of different cities and towns, but I don't remember, where I saw it. I'll try to find it again (or maybe compile some tables myself based on publically available data).

The easiest approach is probably to look at Moscow's population. For example, there lived 9 017 415 in 1991 and 13 274 285 in 2025.

That's a good piece of data, I'll look into the evolution of the Moscow population over the decades and its metropolitan area. Thanks a lot, comrade <3
