What happened to Belarus ๐จ
The highest point is Svyataya hara (345 m) which since 1958 is named differently, after the founder of NKVD. The picture seems to be from Wikipedia, but blurred the region depicting some monument.
However, as also the Elbrus in russia is blurred, it is made clear that both, Belarus and russia, politically are Asia.
