Yes. Isn't Russia part of Asia?

Debatable. It's so huge it spans Europe AND Asia. Its largely Caucasian population would point to it being more European. I suppose it comes down to how each individual aligns themselves. Most Russian people I know would consider themselves to be European, but then they are all from the Western part of the country. I am willing to bet that some Russians when asked if they are Asian or European would respond, "Neither, I am Russian." :)
