Russia: Largest Country in Eurasia — No "Second Landmass"

Russia's Landmass Status: One Continuous Expanse

Russia is the largest country in both Eurasia and Northern Eurasia — and there is only one contiguous landmass.

Clarification

• Eurasia is the combined landmass of Europe and Asia — a single tectonic/continental plate.
• Russia spans ~17.1 million km² across both Europe and Asia (Ural Mountains divide).
• It is not split into two separate landmasses. The phrase "second landmass" is geographically incorrect.

Key Metrics

• Total Area: 17,098,246 km² (6,601,670 sq mi)
• European Russia: ~3.96M km² (23%) — 77% of population.
• Asian Russia (Siberia + Far East): ~13.1M km² (77%) — 23% of population.

Russia's vastness is a single, continuous territory — the largest on Earth.
