We're trying to find categorisation that encompasses multiple factors (culture, tectonic plates, bodies of water, mountain ranges, biogeography) so it's always going to be messy if we keep doing that. I think it's more useful to make categorisations for each individual purpose. Also, for some things, the borders may be a bit fuzzy, it's not surprising if certain things near the border might have some elements of both of the zones they're between. There can also be larger categories with smaller subcategories. E.g. there's a certain amount of cultural commonality between various European countries, but you can also still divide those up further into regions within Europe. But some things might also be different than we categorise now; North Africa tends to have more cultural similarity to the Middle East and even to some extent Mediteranian Europe than it does to Sub-Saharan Africa.

It kind of reminds me of debates by Americans about "Was ancient Egypt Black or White civilization", while their definition of "Black" and "White" meant primarily "resembling Western African" and "resembling North-Western European" respectivelly.

That is thinking it from a Greek / Medieval time perioid, if it was today's technology, stuff like the internet would make it easier for these civilizations to know each other, tho actually getting there would still be a pain, even with planes, it would require hundreds of scales and months of travel, maybe civilizations here would develop teleportation and make it a reality much sooner than we would probably do here due to strict necessity, or I don't know.

Ever since I was a kid, the geographical division between Europe and Asia never made any sense to me. The two "continents" share the same ginormic landmass, by a significant margin, so why do we waste so much brain power trying to separate the two?? That's why there is really only one continent, between the two: EURASIA! This word is already used to denote both landmasses collectively. Why can't it become the standard by which we define this half of our planet?

You can safely identify yourself as a Northwest Eurasian. If you're from a country that is geographically a part of "Near Insular Northwest Europe" a.k.a. "British Isles", you can identify yourself as either an Atlantican or a Northwestern Northwest Eurasian/Northwest European.

It's not about anything other than a group of people NOT wanting to be associated with another group of people. The divide is there to satisfy an "-ism" and nothing more.

Asia is an eastern part of Europe

In Greece all of the Aegean Islands are considered as part of Europe except of Kastelorizo in some sources. Greece isn't actually thought to be a transcontinental country that much.

1:49 woa... I've never seen that map before! If this is the first map of the world ever known to the greeks why wasn't it shown in my history textbooks!? This is REALLY important to how ancient greeks saw the world and humbling for someone living in our time period.

as a Syrian living in the Emirates, I consider the middle east to also be a continent in it's own right for the same reasons Europe is considered a continent. 1. our culture is nothing like Asian culture. 2. it is separated from the rest of Asia by mountains. 3. it is from the first person perspective of a middle eastern, me.

Yes, Mideast (excluding western Egypt) can be considered a separate landmass or subregion from the rest of Asia. Anyway, how I solve such a problem: * Asia should be just categorized as Greater Eurasia * Arabia is Near Eastern Eurasia, Western Eurasia or Southwestern Eurasia * Europe is Northwest Eurasia * India should be considered as a separate landmass * Maritime Southeast Asia should be only limited to Singapore and the Eurasian continental plate-based isles administratively owned by Thailand, Myanmar, Cambodia, Vietnam and West Malaysia. Areas like Indonesia, East Malaysia, Brunei, Philippines and Timor-Leste should be categorized as West Oceanian areas. * Oceania can be divided into six subregions: (1) Proper Polynesia or East Oceania, (2) Micronesia & Taiwan or Northwest Oceania, (3) Melanesia or Central Oceania, (4) Australasia/Australantaranesia or Southwest Oceania, (5) Antaranesia or West Oceania, (6) Zealandia or Far South Oceania.

In the 1970s in my birth country - - Sweden - the entire caucuses was included in maps of Europe. Asia started in Turkey and Iran. Probably cuz of the Soviet Union?

From what heard was Europe & Asia was more political & racial thing as that is technically one continent.

"We have collectively decided..." False. Some influential people sees it as..., and this is taught in places such as... Maps of Europe in Europe vary a lot, and depending on the year and on the place, they include or exclude Russia as a whole, just some western parts, or what is shown here as "established". Bonus points: every European knows Cyprus is in Europe.

Not often I comment, nor actually have this reaction, but I genuinely spluttered at "...who was also dead".

5% of Georgia's territory is north of the Caucasus range and is in Europe. Georgia is a transcontinental country. You may not want it to be like that, but the fact is the fact.

For the sake of the current border crisis in Europe I believe it is important to observe Europe including just the Northern Caucasus as part of Europe and those nations there as unlike the Moscovy who are now sitting around looking at this post saying, "Gee, I wish the Caucasus would stop including everyone as European?" I think that would end the problem there. The Moscovy are not Kievan and not Circassian (for example).

Interesting that it was determined quite earlier on. It just makes sense.

Funny topic, but people are overstating it unnecessarily. But maybe I see it that way because I am Czech and the Czech language handled the problem elegantly, only the translation is a bit scratchy because Czech distinguishes between Kontinenty=continents and Světadíly (literally parts of the world)=continents. There are 5 officially recognized Kontinenty/continents (but even 4 are taken as good thanks to Afro-Eurasia) and 7 světadíly/continents (it even recognizes the 8 if you divide Astralia and Oceania). We also have 1 subcontinent, India, though I don't understand why, but that's beside the point.

It is wherever europeans feels like the rest is not europeans

Let's be honest, Europe and Asia are one in the same.

This does does not take consideration of other lost continents that has the tectonic divides. There is a new continent discovered called Balkanatolia. It stretches from Caucasus, Anatolia, Balkans to Austria and Northern Italy. This continents tectonic lines still exist. Turkish straights formed just a few thousand years ago. There was lake there. The lake was Marmara Sea. The two edges of the this lake collapsed. It united with Aegean and Black Sea. Black Sea was a lake as well. It turned into a sea after that. Turkish straights are brand new in geographical sense. They CAN NOT be a continental divide factor. Turkish Anatolian peninsula is totally connected with Balkan peninsula.

According to definition technically Europe is not a continent, it's actually the extreme western part of Asia. America is not a country yet two continents, one each in the Northern & Southern hemispheres, with a combination of 35 separate countries.

It's interesting how europeans created the concept of "europe" to describe that they are not asian and justify it saying that it reflects culture when places like India, Iran, Kazakhistan, China or Camboya had nothing in common culturally

A millennia and half years ago, you wouldn't had hesitated to call costal Northern Africans, costal middle East and Turkey "Europe". They all used to follow mostly the same tradition, faith, customs, laws and authority. Then history happened. For example Islam happened and suddenly a huge migration of traditions and new population came to middle East and northern Africa. History progressed and Europe dominated every single other continent, Russians desperately tried to be as other Europeans and so Europeanised western Russia (successfully if you ask me). Since Europe dictated the rest of the world thanks to its superiority in every single thing, when they drew the maps, being so different from non Europeans, they made Europe a continent and the centre of the world. If thing were east of Europe then it was Asia, if they were south they were Africa and if they were west then they were America. I mean, of course it isn't right to put everything eastern of Europe as one GIGANTIC single entity and call it "Asia", but at the time maps were drew, Europe could and did do as Europe wanted. After more than five centuries, I guess people got used to it.
