siberia (land mass) accounts for how much of Russia?

Siberia lies in Russia, and it makes up about 56% of that country's territory.

Just like everyone else said, but I am providing sources and statistics.\n\nAs far as land mass goes, Russia is the biggest country in the world, at over 6 million square miles, making almost it twice as big as the second largest, which is Canada at 3.8 million square miles.  The US, interestingly enough, is a close third, with 3.7 million sq mi.  China and Brazil round out the top five.\n\n\nAs everyone knows, China is the most populated, with 1.2 billion people.  Second is India with 1.08 billion, and in third, waaaayy behind the other two, is the US with 295 million.  Indonesia and Brazil round out that top five.

Canada 9,330,970 sq km, (3,612,187 sq miles)\nRussia 17,075,400 sq km, (6,592,812 sq miles)

The country to the West of the US state of Alaska is the Russian Federation. To the east, is Canada.\n\nDoes this help?

Yes.  I have lived in Ak and the minuscule amount of land required is far outdone by the MILLIONS of acreage that would go untouched.  Does anyone realize exactly how large Alaska is?  30 acres is a pinprick on almost any map.  Think of the revenue from jobs and the boost to the Alaskan economy!  It is a beautiful and wild place, but let's be realistic... using 30 acres would in no way jeopardize the balance of wildlife.

Either only a few or you can't do it.  A lot depends on whether you think high latitude areas are part of the globe.\n\nIf you don't then you can cover pretty much the whole planet with only about six satellites although you might for various reasons want more (there's enough room in GEO for thousands of satellites but getting that many orbital slots from the ITU might be a bid hard).\n\nIf you do demand the ability to send signals to those in Antarctica or northern Siberia then you'll probably need satellites in Molnyia orbits to augment them although those are going to be niche markets.  I suspect 12 in Molnyia orbit should be enough for pretty much full coverage of the high latitudes.

I lived in Russia for a while, speak some Russian and had a Russian girlfriend for 5 years.  I agree with Churchill:  Russia is a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma. Very cool country -go visit if you have the chance.

I guess Canada may have what appears to be the most land mass, if you count the ice, but don't  forget brazil is pretty darn big too. I think it rivals USA in size. USA probably has most people, if that is what you mean by "Largest"\n after global warming Canada may melt down quite a bit

it really didnt expand..it overtook the baltic states and Alaska but thats about it. Russia was behind technologically during colonialism. Peter the great changed that with the formation of the russian navy and railroads to and from siberia. The new transportation systems allowed the population to reside in cities so they can get their goods shipped in via train and boat.

Alaska.  But some crazy Russians would tell you it is theirs.

alot..I don't know what percent but most of Alaska is unpopulated and it's about the size of half of the continental US.
