Most of Russia is in Asia. A lot of the more visible people are in Europe. But there's plenty of groups living in the east. Man, sometimes I just think to myself, "someone's ancestors chose to live there". Idk which route they took to get to Siberia, but either way, they went through some pretty good spots and went, "nah, I'll go to the icy desert" lol
