OK, Ariete and Maksim, tell me this: does the traditional stove heat mainly just one room? The heat probably radiates to other rooms a bit, but is it built to channel heat to other rooms?
A classic village house is one stove for 1-2 rooms. For example, the house of my great-great-grandfather had 3 stoves. One large "Russian" and two ordinary, small.

Tak.
One big bread stove in the big room, one masonry stove in the master bedroom. In Finland the infants usually slept in the living room, as it was the warmest place.
And there were other sources of heat as well. In Finland it was the sauna which was in the same building. In Northern Italy where winters can be as cold as in NYC, the domestic animals were held in the ground floor and their body heat radiated warmth to the living quarters above.
And he is right in many ways. Russia is a military country in many respects. So it was, is, and will be. And I do not know if it's good or bad. I'm inclined that this is good.

Large stove in the kitchen (men and children often sleeping on it), one stove in the dining room and one stove in the bedroom room (big room).

This is called 'The Rowan Tree of the Urals', and tells about a Finnish man being exiled to Siberia, but returning home he longs for one girl he met under a rowan tree there.

Ural's Rowan
Evening like a quiet song drifts above the river.
Lights of a factory are shining in the twilight , so as lights of a far away train. Somewhere under the rowan two young men are waiting for me.
Oh curly rowan, white flowers,
Oh rowan, rowan, why you are so sad?
As soon as factory's noises quiet down,
I am on my way to the rowan by the river.
Wind is relentlessly blowing under the rowan, its blowing the curls of a turner on my right and the curls of a blacksmith on my left.
Oh curly rowan, white flowers,
Oh rowan, rowan, why you are so sad?
Our short encounters at the factory are very warm,
But when we meet in the evening, we sit in a silence.
Summer stars are silently looking at the boys,
And they won't tell me which one is a nicer guy.
Oh curly rowan, white flowers,
Oh rowan, rowan, why you are so sad?
Which one of the two is more desirable, who's hand should I hold?
My restless heart is confused.
Both are brave, both are handsome,
Dear rowan, please advise my heart.
Oh rowan, rowan, both are handsome,
Oh rowan, rowan, please advise my heart!
During the evening show,
In a small town
An actress was singing a song
In a foreign language...
I've heard
"Tales from the Vienna woods"
in the movie -
It was not long ago,
Yet it was so long ago.
Could I ever think back then,
Could I ever believe,
That we were parting with our youth forever..
But this waltz from the movie
Stayed with us;
It was not long ago,
Yet it was so long ago.
These days will not come back
They will not rise from the flames,
So why then this old waltz
Is looking for me everywhere?
As if we are still back in the movie theater,
In that dim hall;
It was not long ago,
Yet it was so long ago.
