Since the break-up of the Soviet Union, Santa Claus,
reigned large in Russia, until Russian authorities produced Dyed Moros,
Grandfather Frost, who usurped the man from Lapland with his own legend in
which a figure based on the Russian Saint Nicholas lives in Veliki Ustiuk,
in northern Russia.

authorities did not "produce" him.
