North Asia
North Asia (Northern Asia) refers to the massive northern part of Asia east of the Ural Mountains, also known as Siberia. This region is divided into the Russian federal districts of Ural, Siberia, and the Russian Far East.
The region borders the Arctic Ocean in the north, European Russia in the west, and the Bering Sea in the east. Siberia shares international borders with Kazakhstan, Mongolia, and China in the south.
We had planned to explore this area in 2023, however, world events got in the way.
So, unfortunately, we haven’t populated the Russia page yet.
