Niko was born approximately 83 years ago in Siberia. He’s obsessed with things that go boom, so he is responsible for custom crafting most of the Order’s ammunition, and whenever we need a prank pulled that goes boom. :)
Trivia about Siberia:
• By the broadest definition is also known as North Asia. Siberia has been historically part of Russia since the 17th century.
• With an area of 13.1 million square kilometers, Siberia accounts for 77% of Russia's land area, but it is home to just 40 million people – 27% of the country's population. This is equivalent to an average population density of about 3 inhabitants per square kilometer (approximately equal to that of Australia), making Siberia one of the most sparsely populated regions on Earth.
• At least three species of humans lived in Southern Siberia around 40,000 years ago: H. sapiens, H. neanderthalensis, and the Denisovans. The last was determined in 2010 by DNA evidence to be a new species.
• The first great modern change in Siberia was the Trans-Siberian Railway, constructed during 1891–1916.
• At 7:15 a.m. on 30 June 1908, millions of trees were felled near the Podkamennaya Tunguska (Stony Tunguska) River in central Siberia in the Tunguska Event, which most scientists believe to have been the air burst of a meteoroid or a comet.
• Siberia covers almost 10% of Earth's land surface.
• The climate of Siberia varies dramatically, but all of it basically has short summers and long winters of very cold climate. On the north coast, north of the Arctic Circle, there is a very short (about one-month-long) summer.
• Most Siberians are Russians and russified Ukrainians.
• About seventy percent of Siberia's people live in cities, mainly in apartments.
• Novosibirsk is the largest city in Siberia, with a population of about 1.5 million.
