Troika (from Russian: тройка, meaning "a set of three", or triumvirate, or three of a kind) may refer to:
The Workers' and Peasants' Red Army (Russian: Рабоче-крестьянская Красная армия; РККА, or Raboche-krest'yanskaya Krasnaya armiya: RKKA, frequently shortened in Russian to Красная aрмия; KA, in English: Red Army) was the army and the air force of the Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic, and after 1922 the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics. The army was established immediately after the 1917 October Revolution (Red October or Bolshevik Revolution). The Bolsheviks raised an army to oppose the military confederations (especially the various groups collectively known as the White Army) of their adversaries during the Russian Civil War. Beginning in February 1946, the Red Army, along with the Soviet Navy, embodied the main component of the Soviet Armed Forces; taking the official name of "Soviet Army" (Russian: Советская Армия (СА)/Sovetskaya Armija), until its dissolution in December 1991.
The Red Army is credited as being the decisive land force in the Allied victory in the European theatre of World War II. During operations on the Eastern Front, it fought 75%–80% of the German land forces (Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS) deployed in the war.
The term Red Army Choir may refer to:
The Alexandrov Ensemble does not recognize MVD Ensemble as an "Red Army Choir" and has expressed indignation at the MVD Ensemble's claims of inheriting the Red Army Choir tradition. Although the MVD Ensemble was never associated with the Red Army in Russia during Soviet times, many Western audiences came to associate the MVD Ensemble with the Alexandrov Ensemble due to their similar repertoire and wearing of uniforms during performances.

Plot: The evil Diabolico vows to destroy Earth and only the Power Rangers stand between his horrible monsters and Earth's survival! But one Ranger is out-for-the-count as he fights for his very life. When the Titanium Ranger wakes to find he's been marked with a mysterious cobra tattoo, he realizes his days are numbered. Every time he morphs the cobra creeps up his body and gets closer to striking him. Ordered not to fight until a way is found to break the curse, the Titanium Ranger must sit back while the other Rangers risk it all. But Diabolico's monsters are far too powerful. The battle can't be won without the Titanium Ranger! Will he chance his own destruction to help his fellow Rangers? Can the curse be broken before it's too late? Or will Diabolico strike his final blow?
Genres: Action, Family,"Troika" in the painting Trojka (ros. тройка) - rodzaj trójkonnego zaprzęgu popularny w Rosji, szczególnie przy saniach. A troika (Russian: тройка, "triplet" or "trio") is a traditional Russian harness driving combination, using three horses abreast, usually pulling a sleigh.
'Troika': the fourth movement of Lieutenant Kijé by Sergei Prokofiev Troika is the russian word for three-of-a-kind, which here means a three-horsed open sleigh. Photo taken on Palace Green on 18/12/09 Merry Christmas from Trow's Classical Show here in Durham, back on the 19th of January!
This is the most popular number in the Orchestral Suite that comes from the score Prokofiev wrote for the 1934 Soviet film "Lieutenant Kije." A 'troika' is a three-horse sleigh, so this music is often heard at Christmas time. In this superb 1950s stereo recording, Anatole Fistoulari conducts the Philharmonia Orchestra. (From 'Guild Historical' GHCD 2391).

Here I present one of Russia's popular folk songs, "The Troika-mail is running - Вот мчится тройка почтовая. The song is sung here by the Moscow Patriarchal Choir under the direction of Ariadna Rybakova. The mail troika is dashing over the frozen Volga in winter, and the little bell, a gift from the Valdai hills, sounds monotonously from the troika's bow. The daring coachman, on his feet since midnight, felt lonely in the quietness. And he began to sing about the bright eyes, about the eyes of the girl of his soul: "You eyes, light blue eyes, you have conquered this young man! Why, why, oh evil people, have you have separated our hearts? Now I am a bitter orphan!" And suddenly he swept over all the three horses. So the young lad played with the troika and sang like a nightingal...

There's a place in my heart
The shadows call their home
Cold as the winds, through Siberia
Where the snow lies so deep
You can't even see the sun
Run, my Troika, run
Run, my Troika, run
Let the horses run free
So dark against the white
Over the field, till they're out of sight
And I am swept away
The journey has begun
Run, my Troika, run
Oh, my mother Russia
Land of fairytales
Captured like the wind
In her silken sails
And the time rushes by
A thief in the night
Stealing my memory
Fading out the light
But I cannot forget where it is, that I come from
Run, my Troika, run
Oh, my mother Russia
Land of fairytales
Captured like the wind
In her silken sails
I can still see your face
The years have been kind
Dust on the pictures
Clouding up my mind
But remember me now, not for what I may become
Run, my Troika, run
There's a place, in my heart
The shadows call their home
Cold as the winds, through Siberia
Where the snow lies so deep
You can't even see the sun
Run, my Troika, run
Lalala lalala
Lalalalalalalala
La lalalala la lalalala
Lalala lalala
Lalalalalalalala
Run, my Troika, run
