I wish these quizzes would be consistent. In some they list Russia in Europe and in others in Asia, which is where I've always felt it should be.

The answer *is* both. So it's correct. Your feelings don't make it a reality.

They are consistent. There's a quiz with Russia in Asia. And a quiz with Russia in Europe. Because it's in both.

In Asian map quizzes Russia is not included

Level 61
Dec 11, 2020
Yes because Russia is not an Asian country, *but* it holds a lot of Asian territory, which is why the caveat was added for only land in Asia, because Russia definitely has the largest portion of land in Asia.

If you're referring to capital cities then yes Russia is only in the European quiz because the capital is in Europe.

This quiz only includes the portion of Russia that is in Asia. It's still the largest even when you cut out the 4,000,000ish square kilometers in Europe. Russia is huge.

This quiz includes only the parts which are in Asia. Both countries are in two continents, this quiz counts only Asian parts.

Turkey is mostly Asian and also a bit European

Yes it's in NATO but that doesn't make it European. It's capital is in Asia, a lot of it's population is In Asia, a lot of it's GDP is in Asia. The only exception is that the western half of the Bosporus is European, and that has a lot of people. It's not fully Asian, definitely Transcontinental. but we don't see people calling Egypt part of Asia, or Indonesia part of Oceania, even though that is a much more loosely defined region.

+1

Dec 12, 2020
Reference to NATO is completely irrelevant, as the US and Canada are both members, and there are no suggestions that they are in Europe.
