Russia actually is so large it does stretch into Asia as well.
I'm talking mentality rather than geography, though the latter influences the former.

An objective glance at the map tells us that Mexico is in North America. But does that seem true to you in terms of what makes North America tick? Not to me. (Ah jeez, I can sense rmnunez coming with another attempt to corrupt the English language. :) )

To me, European means necessarily post-Enlightenment. Dat sadly doan apply, on the whole, to dem Roos-keys.
