How did this country get so big?

They were the country with the easiest access to Siberia at a time when they were breddy strong and wanted to expand. The non-European part of Russia isn't heavily populated because of the climate and its relative isolation, and a lot of them speak languages other than Russian or have weird sects, and are pretty cut-off from Russian society.

They also conquered a lot of land from Finland, the Baltic states, etc. not too long ago while Germany and Great Britain for example haven't really expanded in Europe.

Cossaks fit somewhere in Step 2

Why is Russia so big?
If we took some of their territories, would they die?
If Russia is so big and spacious with sparse populations why not send the refugees there?
