Asian Russia
Asian Russia, also known as North Asia, is the Asian part of Russia. It is a vast and sparsely populated region stretching from the Arctic to the central Asian deserts. It is divided into three regions:

North Asia is made up of the easternmost three areas in the map
- The Urals — One of the wealthiest regions, known for producing many of the resources Russia needs today.
- Siberia — The largest area in Russia diverse in landscape and yearly temperatures with stunning lakes, world longest rivers, but swampy in most part in the center and north.
- Russian Far East — One of the coldest regions in Russia and indeed the Northern Hemisphere, home to the coldest city in the world, Yakutsk.
