You say that like the modern polity/culture didn’t grow out of Europe and spread east or like minority ethnic groups in Asian Russia aren’t treated worse then Muscovites and ethnic Russians.
Russia,[b] or the Russian Federation,[c] is a country in Eastern Europe and North Asia. It is the largest country in the world, spanning eleven time zones and sharing land borders with fourteen countries.[d] With a population of over 140 million, Russia is the most populous country in Europe and the ninth-most populous country in the world.
How can you be so confident, and yet so wrong about everything?
The term oriental is often used to describe objects and (in a derogative manner) people coming from the Orient/eastern Asia.
The term Oriental may sound dated or even be seen as a pejorative, particularly when used as a noun.[20] John Kuo Wei Tchen, director of the Asian/Pacific/American Studies Program and Institute at New York University, said the basic criticism of the term began in the U.S. during a cultural shift in the 1970s. He has said: “With the U.S.A. anti-war movement in the '60s and early '70s, many Asian Americans identified the term ‘Oriental’ with a Western process of racializing Asians as forever opposite ‘others’”,[21] by making a distinction between “Western” and “Eastern” ancestral origins.
Saying something is from the orient means its from Asia… Calling a person or a group of people like an army oriental is saying they are Asian.
Read your own source… Or just use common sense?
When have you ever heard of a European living in Europe being referred to as oriental?
Oh boy, you’re gonna be pissed when you find out the continent Russia is located in…

It’s both, so what’s your point?
Oh boy, you’re gonna be pissed when you find out it’s not both.

Ahh… So when a white person lives in Asia they are oriental?
Yes. Oriental has nothing to do with race, and you would know that if you had spent 3 seconds googling before you made this snarky statement.

Russia is in Asia…
And in Europe… It’s a transcontinental country. However, its asian territories are a product of European colonialism.
You are so close to getting it lol
This you…?
My dude… Youve had soo many wild takes on this subject you should just stop.
Lol, I see you deleted the one where you claimed none of Russia was in Europe. Embarrassing.
