Russia is the largest country in the world by common knowledge,
and it extends from Europe as far as Alaska, but the country location appears to be in Asia and this really confuses me a lot because Russians are European-looking not Asian-looking.

Russia is between Asia and Europe. If you see people from Siberia they dont look like europeans they have different style.
Russians are Slavs mostly which is a Caucasian tribe that is why they don't look like Asians

It's part of Asia. Asians can be Russians, Chinese, Iraqis, Israelites, etc. There is not continent of Russia as there is no continent of the Middle East.

the name of the continent is neither Europe, nor Asia... it is Eurasia...
where have you been in school???
Eurasia
Africa
South America
North America
Australia
Antarctica
Arctic
your answers are really scary...
Russian Federation is called Federation, cause it unites many nationalities, ethnic groups and religions... even if it's not by the free will of those countries.
you will find almost all "types" of people there. those who looks Slavic, they are minority... very big but still minority... mostly inhabitants of the western part of Russia.

Russia is in Eastern Europe and Asia.
I believe they consider people west of the Urals to be more European and people east of the Urals to be more Asian.
