It occupied about 18,000 square kilometres (6,900 square miles) along the east bank of the Volga River, about 60 kilometres (37 miles) west of the river's confluence with the Kama River and some 700 kilometres (430 miles) east of Moscow.[citation needed]

Its primary economic activities were agricultural.[1] Grain and fruit production and logging are emphasized.[citation needed] The capital city was Cheboksary.[1]
