Chuvash Republic (Russian: ×óâà́øñêàÿ Ðåñïó́áëèêà; Chuvash: ×ăâàø Ðåñïóáëèêè), or Chuvashia (×óâà́øèÿ) is a federal subject of Russia (a republic) located in central Russia. It is the homeland of Turkic Chuvash people.
Chuvashia is located in the center of the European part of Russia, in the heart of the Volga-Vyatka region, midway between Nizhny Novgorod and Kazan.

Cheboksary is situated on the banks of the Volga River, approximately 650 km east of Moscow.

Forests, mostly in the south along the Sura River, cover approximately 30 percent of the land.
Chuvashia is located in the Moscow Time Zone (MSK/MSD). UTC offset is +0300 (MSK)/+0400 (MSD).
