Most countries set timezones such that mid-day is about noon. Some may alter this slightly with daylight savings time that will give more sun in the mornings and less in the evenings.

Large countries like the USA and Russia have multiple timezones so different regions still have the day more or less centered around noon.

Russia actually covers 11 time zones. So, when it is midnight in Moscow, it would be 11AM in far eastern Russia.

Places north of the Arctic Circle, or south of the Antarctic Circle will have days of complete darkness during the winter, and days of 24 hour light (with the exception of shade) during the summer.

Most of Greenland lies above the Arctic Circle and would have a few days of 24 hour sunlight. Likewise with parts of Alaska, parts of Canada, about half of Russia, and parts of some other northern European countries.

Svalbard is a Norwegian island entirely north of the Arctic Circle, and would have 24 hour days in the summer.

Antarctica is not really a country, but is a continent that almost entirely lies south of the Antarctic circle. There are a few islands scattered around the Antarctic circle, but no other continents in the area.

Why is it dark in one country and light in another country?

It is dark in one country and light in another due to the rotation of the Earth. The side of the Earth facing away from the Sun experiences night, while the side facing the Sun experiences daylight. This rotation creates the cycle of day and night around the globe.

Am is before 12 in the middle of the day and after 12 in the middle of the night, so it is both. How much of both depends on the time of year as in the Summer days are longer then in the winter.
