[quote="Old Reliable":5d4af]don't tell me that russia is europe. if you go past Ural mountains it is asia, and that makes up for the majority of the country. It's true that Moscow is located on the european side and makes all the decisions, but the country remains of asian descent[/quote:5d4af]


But the culture is closer to European though,
alphabet is based off Greek,
main religion (before Communists) was Christian (Orthodox),
etc.
