The map shows Russia as having climates similar to Nebraska as well as Greenland. I don’t think that’s really a single simple climate.

Yeah, I think the concept might be mapping them so there's some kind of scale proportion between the countries their NA equivalent, as well as a climate one. There's still some misses, though. I'm not sure how "Eastern Europe" compares to the continental divide, and Ukraine has got to be larger than Japan.
