ive noticed alot of similarites in some areas of the world that are thousands of miles apart.
the northern great lakes region (northern minnesota/wisconsin/ michigan's upper peninsula & northern lower peninsula) of the US has its counterpart in the russian far east (ussuri/primorye/khabarovski kray/kamchatka). they both share a maritime climate and great flora/faunal similarites and often related species. for example the russian far east and upper great lakes both share moose, wolves, bears, chipmunks, hares & lynx and both areas have closely related species of oaks, pine, birch and maple.
the sagebrush steppe of montana/utah/oregon ect has its counterpart in mongolia, the scottish highlands have their north american counterpart in newfoundland, ect ect.
its really fascinating to see how much these areas are alike.
