Geographically Russia is in Europe. Well, the Moscow region anyway, which is the most important bit.

Land mass wise less than 40% of it is in Europe, more of it is in Asia, true that the main 2 cities are on the western (Europe) side but more of it's massive landmass is Asian.

Massive, mostly empty landmass.
I would also consider them European on a historical and cultural context. Their culture is much closer to European countries than it is to Asian countries. Although... maybe this changes the further east you go in Russia? And historically they are definitely more European, often involved in events with other European countries and not so much with Asian countries until the last couple hundred years.

Naw there isn't really any cross over with Asians even at the most eastern borders of Russia. They don't consider themselves to be Russian/Asian that is to say.
OT tho, great boost from Fifa for every system and those T2 countries gave a cool boost to the X1, next weeks china sales will cause a bit of grief on here I'd say regardless of which way they are tracked heh :)
