The US is in North America.

Russia is in Europe and Asia.

My point is that Russia spans 2 continents (Europe and Asia). Not 3 continents.

Nd Russia doesn’t share border with US tru sea?

And how did you come up with this?
Your source?
Edit: thanks to those who addressed me in a cultured manner,I got that.

Why should I be ashamed of asking about something I have no idea on?
People on here can be very funny,this is a public forum and I don't think asking questions is wrong.
I rather do than act like I know about it,you shouldn't expect me or anyone to know everything about the world map,I must say I am surprised at the insult.

Fact check:most people insulting me actually don't know about this.
Go and ready the history of Alaska ! The US bought Alaska from Russia undecided undecided undecided

The world should really be grateful to that Seward guy.
But one funny thing is,some parts of the States at the border area who still got some strong cultural ties with Russia are crying to be joined with Russia!
Do you also know Donald Trump also wanted to buy off Greenland? But their Greenland administrators, Denmark rejected the offer.

Yes...Big Diomede and Little Diomede...just few miles from eachother and they both are relatives with Russian heritage but now can't even visit eachother.

There are times when they cross over when the ice freezes or through the sea but now the border is tighter

Russia is geographically at advantage. It span across almost 3 continents, reason they said they dont need bases all over the world to strike any part of the Planet. Peace is all we want.
I LOVE THE WORD " ALMOST" THAT USE, AND NOT THOSE CLAIMING IT 3 CONTINENTS WHILE MAP SAYS DIFFERENT THING

I cannot believe this made front page

Anyone with even the least exposure or slightest knowledge of either international politics, geography or history knows that 1. America bought Alaska
2. That's just Alaska (it's still USA but not USA in all its glory, not USA as you know it) (it's more like mainland China and it's sub China's elsewhere so Usa is mainland USA and alaska is like an over sea protectorate on the same content divided/separated by Canada)

The Alaska itself was sold to US by Russia in 1867.
If not, Na only Canada go separate the contiguous US states from Russia.

I am quite sure that Russia will be regretting ever selling Alaska to US. The then US secretary encouraging and signing the deal then was seen as a foolish man (Seward folly), he is now being praised as a man of foresight later on

Russia sold Alaska because they didn’t believe they could conquer invading French army in Canadia. It’s better to sell than to lose the land to France. Russia then was not the same Russia we know now

He surrounded HIMSELF with watertight security. I was referring to civilian casualties. Read to comprehend, not to attack. There are no Nairaland awards for the most disrespectful comment.


Read ur post again and again, if he doesn't send his own civilian, and enemy killed them all, I guess you would move thr to be civilian that mad man will rule over.

Just like navy seal says, Putin do all this nonsenses bcs of weakling biden, he can't try half of this madness during Bush reign.

APOSTLECHUMA:
AMERICA IS MODERN SODOM AND GOMORRAH AND IT WILL MEAN INJUSTICE ON GOD SIDE IF HE SPARES AMERICA THAT IS QUILTY OF CORRUPTING THE WHOLE WORLD WITH SIN AFTER HE MADE AN EXAMPLE WITH SODOM THAT HE DOES NOT COMPROMISE WITH SIN. GOD RAISED RUSSIA (THE KING OF THE NORTH) FOR THE PURPOSE OF DESTROYING AMERICA WHEN THE TIME COMES. THIS IS CONTAINED IN DANIEL 11 WHERE THE KING OF THE NORTH (RUSSIA) DESTROYED THE KING OF THE SOUTH (AMERICA) IN THE ENDTIME. IT WILL BE A SURPRISE MULTIPLE NUCLEAR ATTACKS AND WILL BE DONE BY RUSSIA TO PAVE WAY FOR RUSSIA (GOG) CHINA (MAGOG) AND IRAN (PERSIA) TO LEAD THE REST OF HUMANITY IN WAR AGAINST ISRAEL, TO IMPOSE IT ON ISRAEL TO ACCEPT THE DIVISION OF JERUSALEM AS THE CAPITAL OF THE STATE OF PALESTINE AND ISRAEL. UN'S RECOGNITION OF THE STATE OF PALESTINE WHICH WILL TAKE PLACE NOT FAR FROM NOW WILL PUSH ISRAEL TO DESTROY AL AQSA MOSQUE AND SINCE THERE IS NO WAY THAT THE WHOLE WORLD CAN THINK OF ATTACKING ISRAEL WITH USA ON THE SCENE, RUSSIA WILL DO THE DIRTY DEAL OF REMOVING USA OUT OF THE WAY TO PAVE WAY FOR THE GLOBAL WAR AGAINST ISRAEL. RUSSIA HAS MILITARY PACT WITH THE MUSLIM WORLD AND WILL DO THIS ON THEIR BEHALF. EVERY GOOD BIBLE STUDENT KNOWS THAT BIBLE DIDNT MENTION AMERICA IN THE BATTLE OVER JERUSALEM AND THIS WAS WHY. GOD, MAGOG AND PERSIA WERE THE COUNTRIES MENTIONED IN THE BIBLE THAT WILL LEAD THE WAR AND THESE COUNTRIES ARE ALREADY IN SYRIS, ISRAEL'S BACKYARD, WAITING FOR THE D-DAY AND THIS IS WHY ISRAEL KEEPS ATTACKING IRAN IN SYRIA BUT IT IS TOO LATE FOR THEM TO FORCE IRAN OUT OF SYRIA. ANY ONE WHO IS LOOKING AT AMERICA'S MILITARY MIGHT AND CONSIDERS THIS IMPOSSIBLE, SHOULD REMEMBER DAVID AND GOLIATH. IT IS NEITHER BY POWER NOT BY MIGHT THAT BATTLES ARE WON BUT BY COUNSEL OF GOD AS THIS WORLD TURNS AROUND HIS WILL.
Please when did you visit America last?

You lot are mindless,I keep on learning on a daily basis and I will never act as if I know something when I don't.

Comrade calm down I haven't crossed the violence line grin

No wonder you support America because you don't know anything.
You don't know that US is also culpable for invading other sovereign states, you don't know that Taiwan is China's province, you don't know that there was an agreement that Ukraine mustn't be part of NATO.
You don't know that the US state Alaska was given to America by Russia.
