Description:

The correct answer is:

✅ Russia

Why?

Oymyakon, Siberia (Russia) holds the record for the coldest inhabited place in the Northern Hemisphere.

Record Low: -71.2°C (-96.2°F) in 1924.

Winter Avg.: -50°C (-58°F).

Key Facts:

Located in eastern Siberia, near the Arctic Circle.

Permafrost region: Ground stays frozen year-round.

Daily Life: Cars run 24/7 (to prevent freezing), and schools close only below -52°C (-62°F).

Why Not the Others?

Japan: Coldest spot is Rikubetsu (-38°C), but nowhere near Oymyakon.

Mongolia: Has frigid areas (e.g., Ulaanbaatar), but not record-breaking.

Fun Fact: Oymyakon’s name means "unfrozen water"—from a nearby thermal spring! ❄️🇷🇺

Survival Tip: Locals eat raw frozen fish for vitamins! 🐟😅
