Russia
Memory Beta, the wiki for licensed Star Trek content.
Russia is a region on Earth. Starfleet officers Pavel Chekov and Ivan Verov were born and raised in Russia, and Worf also spent much of his childhood there.
From 1917 to 1991, Russia was part of the Soviet Union, one of the main nation-states on Earth.
Pavel Chekov was a native of Russia, and took great pride in his countrymen's accomplishments -- oftentimes to the point of exaggeration. (TOS episode: "Friday's Child", et al)
Sergey and Helena Rozhenko were also of Russian/Ukranian heritage, and raised their adopted son Worf in Russia for part of his childhood. (TNG episode: "Family"; DS9 episode: "Image in the Sand")
Anastasia Komananov was a fictional Russian in the Julian Bashir, Secret Agent holoprogram, based on the pulp novel character written in the 1980s based on real KGB spy Anastasia Natalya Komananov (DS9 episodes: "Our Man Bashir", "His Way"; TOS novel The Eugenics Wars: The Rise and Fall of Khan Noonien Singh, Volume 2).
