Yep. The massive area that is mainly Siberia is largely tundra, thinly populated and extremely hard to actually do anything with! No other bugger wanted it that bad so Russia thought "Yeah, we'll have that..."

As the area contained so few local people they wouldn't have put up much resistance even if they wanted to. And largely their way of life is the same as it was previously.

"Belgium is smaller than I realised too."

Having worked in Belguim, it's a strange place in many ways. In size it's small, but their culture differs hugely between North and South Belguim, much more than ours does. They actually speak two different languages, the dutch heavy Flemish the main one in the North whilst the Walloons in the South tend to speak French?

Also try finding a bloody cash machine! They're about a mile and a half apart even in big cities such as Antwerp which is crap on a night out ha! The resson behind this is that income tax is so fucking obscenely high that a massive amount of jobs over there pay cash in hand otherwise a lot of people wouldn't be able to actually live? So cash machines aren't needed by a massive amount of people and as such they're a lot more sparse.

Yes but to connect the two countries you would need around 2600 miles of new road and 3 bridges over a very difficult terrain.

A lot of maps are confusing when talking about scale. You may have been looking at mercators projection. Try searching for a Gall-Peters projection of the globe as it gives a more realistic representation of the areas of each country. Doesnt make the largest country, by area any smaller though.

In days of old, inhabiting colr areas was difficult to say the least. So no, they didnt want to conquer those landmasses.

Or if they did claim the land it got ignored as it was pointless.

To turn a massive land border into a 55 mile wide wet one. A bit like the English Channel is to mainland Europe.

It’s not actually quite as big as it looks on a 2D map due to distortion caused by the way a 3D globe is changed to look in 2D, using map projections.

So countries closer to the equator look proportionally closer to their actual size, but countries further from the equator usually look bigger than they actually are.

To see what an effect this can have, look at Greenland and India in a world map. Greenland looks way bigger, but India is about 50% bigger than Greenland.

Because at 17,125,200 square kilometres (6,612,100 sq mi), Russia is the largest country in the world by area, covering more than one-eighth of the Earth's inhabited land area.

If Canada nicked some of northern USA it would be even bigger.

But still massively disproportionate on most world maps. India is around 3.3m sq km, but looking at most world maps a lot more than 5-6 Indias would fit inside Russia.

There are thats why Hitler invaded.

Russia with its 18,000+ nukes though is very safe from the usa.
