Much like Eskimo have 27 words for snow because they have so much exposure and have to denote subtle variations, Russians lumped a bunch of unused words together. World peace? Not in Russian!

It's literally "Miru - mir", "Vsemirnyi mir", or "Mir vo vsyom mirje".

No one have 27 words for snow, that's a myth
