Why is the Soviet Union a traditional European country?

The International Union of Soviet Socialism (hereinafter referred to as the Soviet Union) spans two continents, occupying eastern Europe and northern and central Asia, with an area of 22.4 million square kilometers, accounting for/kloc-0.5% of the world's land area. It is the largest country in the world. In the territory of the Soviet Union, Asia accounts for about three quarters, but it is recognized as a European country in the world. The main reasons are as follows: (1) Its European part is the core of Russia's rise. Since it emerged as a country in the ninth century, it has been the political, economic and cultural center of Russia and the base camp for its outward expansion. (2) After the victory of the October Revolution, especially since the Second World War, although the Soviet Union's productivity layout has undergone great changes, and a series of energy bases, raw material bases and new industrial centers have emerged in Asia, the traditional core position of the European part has not changed, and it is still the focus of Soviet management; (3) Europe is the most densely populated and economically developed region in the Soviet Union, with three-quarters of the country's population, total industrial and agricultural output value and transportation lines, and consuming four-fifths of the country's energy. The capital Moscow is located in the center of the European part of the Soviet Union. Therefore, both historically and now, the Soviet Union is a traditional European country, not an Asian country. This is universally acknowledged.
