no one else knows why either , thats really weird . you can leave a glass bottle just as easily as you can leave a can . why not just get mad at people who leave trash everywhere . instead of being mad about 1 specific type of container that they might not even leave <| sep |> The mix of Arctic weather and Asian culture seems to be taken from Siberia and its ' Indigenous people . The Nenets and Nganasans for example have typical Mongolian features , yet live in Northern Siberia . I agree that Tyvia ' s names seem a tad too Asian to fit well with the Arctic theme though . The Nenets speak Uralic ? languages IIRC , and those never strike me as sounding very EasternAsian . edit examples of city names in Siberia Barnaul , Novosibirsk , UlanUde , Irkutsk , Omsk etc .
