The Ruska Roma (Руска Рома), also known as North Russian Gypsies (севернорусские цыгане) or Khaladytka Roma (Халадытка Рома; lit. 'Roma Soldiers'), are the largest subgroup of Romani people in Russia and Belarus, with smaller remnants of the group living in Ukraine, Latvia, Poland, the United States, France, and Canada. They formed in the Northwestern part of the Russian Empire from the Polska Roma who immigrated to the country in the 18th century.
