75% of Russia's population lives in Europe. Not only that, but even if we don't count the Asian part of Russia, the European one would still be biggest and most populous country in Europe.

What is with you people constantly trying with the "dastardly Asiatics" dogwhistles.

OK if Russia is divided with one part considered Europe and one part of considered Asia then it makes sense. I always perceived Russia as Asia.

Do you have a link to an authorative source that clearly defines the line that divedes Russia into its European and Asian parts?

Pretty much every geography atlas. In relevant area it's Ural mountains and river. Definitions might vary a bit at the south, the river is not always acknowledged, but regardless of definition it won't change anything in my previous post.
