Not really, Russia is I believe the single biggest land mass country in the world. Russia is HUGE 6.6 MILLION SQUARE MILES, roughly 1/6th of the earths entire land mass. Its also incredibly LONG something like 5,700 miles east to west... so odds are very very good, that something in the northern hemisphere, falling to earth from space, is far more likely to happen over Russia than any other country.
To put this in context, the entire north american CONTINENT is only about 9.5 Millon square miles... the 48 contiguous states of the US is a around 3 Millions square miles .
If it hits N America, and strikes land, its most likely to hit Asia (biggest continent) and most likely to hit russia, biggest country in Asia.
Obviously can hit anywhere, but when you are the biggest place on the planet you have the highest odds.
Too detailed. I like global warming as a better explanation.
Sorry that should be
“IF it hits the Northern Hemisphere” not “north america”
