It was colonized by Russia.

But did the European part of Russia colonise the Asian part or the other way around?

Today's Russia east of the Urals was colonized by Eastern European nobility.

I mean, all of Europe saw population replacement when Middle Eastern farmers and then much later Indo-European steppe horsemen showed up, if we want to go way back.
