This category would best be upmerged

The Russian Empire existed less than 200 years. There is no reasonable way to get three by century sub-cats. Guidelines encourage us to only sub-divide where we can have 3 by century sub-cats. This is not doable here. We would be best off upmerging this category into Botanists from the Russian Empire.John Pack Lambert (talk) 04:53, 6 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
