It’s in Russia.
Russia is tentatively divided into the European part and the Asian part (Siberia and the Far East).
A Figurative Look at Where Siberia Is Located
If you go from Europe to Moscow, that is, directly to the east, then after Moscow after some timeyou will reach the Ural Mountains. After the mountains is Siberia. And if you continue moving across Siberia to the east, then after some time, across a strait, there will be Alaska. That means that Siberia is located between the European part of Russia and Alaska.
On the picture. In the upper left corner –a white cap of Greenland. If you look down from it and slightly to the right, then you will see a divide – the Ural Mountains. On the left, in a shady part – the European part of Russia, and on the right of the Ural Mountains – Siberia – all of the green space that goes to the ocean. And below the green space there is a brown area – this is where Siberia ends and begin Kazakhstan, Mongolia, China and other Asian countries.
In other words, Siberia occupies the entire northern Asia.
Historical Adjustments
Over time, Russians began to distinguish separately such region of Siberia, as the Far East. That means that now Siberia is situated between the European part of Russia and the Russian Far East.
