It is right to say that Russia, technically is not an European country. Major part of Russia falls into Asia and not Europe. They just choose to be part of Europe in order to hold and maintain influence. |

Greyworld: Russia before the ural mountains is Europe. Over 70% of Russians live in the European part of Russia. So we can conclude that Russia is in Europe. But in the real sense Russia is in Eurasia. Though ethnically, Racially, linguistically and politically it's Europe. 2 Likes |

AgonyOfHell:we learn everyday bro. Ownership was transferred to the USA on March 30, 1867, for 7.2million dollars. Apparently, the Russians felt it was a worthless territory, surplus to requirements. Gold was later discovered in 1896. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alaska_Purchase 1 Like 1 Share |

bikassava:Though Russia is located in what is called Eurasia it's more geographically part of Asia than Europe. But it's tilted towards Europe politically. So as far as landmass is concerned, it's more correct to include Russia in Asia than in Europe even though the country spans both continents. 2 Likes |

Russia as a country is not geographically counted among the Europeans nation just like turkey. In terms of the landmass both Canada ,America and even China Brazil are more bigger than Europe as a continent. Russia is more or less a continent on its own. Russia chooses to be a called European nation so that it can be relevant in world theatre and rival America influence at world scale. Among the European. French with 643, 801 is the biggest interm of land mass among the European countries. 1 Like |
