Where Are The Asian Borders? (Part 2: Europe)
Asia is the largest and most populous continent in the world. From the physical extremes to the cultural, it's a continent that has shown tremendous diversity from one end to the other. But what exactly counts as Asia? Where are the Asian borders?
This video is part two of a three part series.
In part one, we covered the specific Asian borders following the coastal regions from the Tumen River between North Korea & Russia to the Suez Canal in Egypt. In between, we went over Japan's Bonin (Ogasawara) Islands, the Malay Archipelago, Indonesia's border with Papua New Guinea, the Wallace Line, the Weber Line, Asian continental shelf, the Middle East, Yemen's Socotra Archipelago, Afro-Eurasia and Egypt's border.
In part two, we cover the most controversial Asian border section of Europe starting from Egypt, through Lebanon, Syria, Cyprus, Turkey, Georgia, Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan and Russia. We end on the eastern side of Russia (Siberia) bordering North America, which is where part three will commence.
Many feel Asian and Europe shouldn't have been separate continents to start with, as there isn't a clear physical geographical divide between the two. In fact, a few countries teach the continent of Eurasia as a result. This made this video particularly challenging as nothing is definitive and is all open to interpretation.

"Is Russia European or Asian?"
"It's Russia..."

Declare Russia as a separate continent , problem sopved
chhaya Bansal it is cultural different from Asia, and Europe in my opinion. Also Russia is big enough.
There are more European Russians I think
Both
"Turks are European"
"Turks are Central Asian"
"Turks are Middle Eastern"
*Turks are Turks.* End of the discussion.
We weren’t talking about country borders but continental ones. So specially for you. Turkey is European, Turkey is Asian. They are also in the middle east but that is part of Asia.
Kontol
Middle East is Asia part, so?
bruh im a turk and i look like an actual arab with brown skin and facial hair
Ege Şahin not to be racist but I couldn’t tell you the difference

@Queen_PLATINE! Beacuse the Turks likes to claim Greeks islands as theirs based on the claim that they are asian or "not on the Greek continential shelf" and also claim Greek waters.
Greece should give Turkey the islands and take back Constantinople

how?
Turkey is the definition of transcontinental country as both geographically and culturally. Barış Manço who was a famous Turkish singer said once that we are west for the east and east for the west. It is really true.
David A. thanks for the information. btw, kebab is really delicious, you should try it.
MG - Sorry, it's been removed.
MG - I'm just playing.
Turkey isn't European or Asian, it's continental status is super disputed.
If you ask to a European, they will say it is Asia. But if you ask to an African or an Asian, they will most likely tell that it is in Europe. There are good reasons. Despite Turkey being pretty westernized compared to its Asian counterparts, it still falls behind Western Europe. I am Turkish myself and I asked a Greek, a Macedonian and a Kosovar (or Albanian, ethnicities...) this question, and they ALL said it is European. The answer is: Depends on how you see Turkey. Do you see just a European country that fell behind, or a westernized Asian country that is just not accepted by Western Europe.
and which of us Turks give a fuck about what the f rest of the world says?
Since (I think) 3 years ago, Australia has participated in the Eurovision song contest.
Guess Australia's a part of Europe XD
Ya what were they thinking
Well Australia is socially and culturally European.
u don't necessarily need to be European to join Eurovision although it sounds weird lol
@@hayots_lernashkharh I mean the name has Euro in it though.
It's a joke

I'm Kazakh and was born in Aktobe (so decidedly the Asian part of Kaz ✌) - I lived in Atyrau for many years and there's a bridge which marked half the city as Europe and the other as Asia
Thank you for this video!
domyboji Türkiye'den qardas Kazakistana bol salamlar
domyboji Я тоже Казах =)
this was actually news to me. I always only considered Russia and Turkey to be transcontinental, but this is so interesting. Good do know! Also considering those small parts of Georgia and Azerbaijan.
domyboji, сәлем из Астаны!!
domyboji Kazakhstan is cool nation.
Çanakkale is not a trans-continental city, the city is completly in asia. But the province Çanakkale is in Europe and Asia
I'm georgian and i'm european! 🇬🇪❤
I love this series, it fits my obsessions with geography and Asia, but you should post part 3.
Australia is in eurovision too. Does that mean Australia is Europe country? ;'-)
Again, Australia can be considered culturally European given that they speak an Indo-European Germanic language and the fact that most Australians are descended from Europeans.
Not a fan of Eurovision in any way, shape, or form but always found it strange how Israel and Australia are in it. Time for a "Globalvision" name change perhaps? xD
Globalvision lol. Imagine a contest where USA, Saudi-Arabia and North Korea compete.
The Olympics?
D3C3n50r Eurovision is actually the name of the sponsor/organizer.
7:40 Noooo dude!!!? Actually it's my town Atyrau In Kazakhstan!!! not Orenburg
Oh really, thanks for letting me know.
Kento Bento part 3?
@Yong Geun Song it is transcontinental it is both european and asian
called Eurasian
I know my family is Kazakh and they are not European like ok
3:34 European and Asian turkey... yum!
Great Video(s), very in-depth! love it
Let me summarize the Russian-Asian or European thing.
Russia is considered European. Since the language is Slavic. 'Europe' Russia is more populated and habitable than Siberia/Asia Russia.
Sure 77% of Russia is in Asia. But only about 27% of the population of Russia are in Siberia. (including Immigrants) So yeah. Russian people are considered to be European.
so native Siberians, are they Russian or Asian?
Thtmats dump u know ni yhung abiut russia
Talking about Russia in Europe is thought to be part of Asia. No matter what the Russians look like. Ethnicity does not matter. (no one calls Americans Europeans). Culturally, mentally and politically it is a completely different country. The same goes for turkey (although I don't know why anyone would call them Europeans since even geographically they are almost completely outside of Europe.
Russia, politically and culturally, is most similar to Eastern Europe. People don’t call Americans Europeans because there’s too many ethnicities and races here to collectively call them as European. Turkey is different though. Its culture is closer to the Middle East in my opinion.
It’s hard though, since Asia is so big and so diverse. The Kazakhstan-region of people also sometimes look "European," but i’d consider them an Asian country. I guess that was the argument you were trying to make.
dat russian island names tho.🇷🇺
Ey Ho Imagine someone saying "I'm from October Revolution."
Ahmad Alenezi Sadly, nobody lives there.
In Russia exists towns and geographical objects with more outre names. That named so in political reasons after communist revolution. What would you think about town with name "Posjolok Vsesojuznogo Elektroteckhnicheskogo Instituta imeni Lenina"?
+John Doe Translated that is "Small Town of the Wholeunion Electrotechnical University in Lenin's Name".
+John Doe
But you would guess that they would rename them back just like they did with Leningrad and Stalingrad but apparently nobody cared about those islands anyway.
awesome video, but two thing triggered me a lot, first of all Cyprus is in europe, and second, Georgia is too, historically and culturally Georgia was always closer to europe, demographically and religionwise Georgia is european, plus Georgia is EU membership candidate, and will join EU eventually some time in future.
Asia: touches or nearly touches Africa,Europe,North America and Australia
South America and Antarctic: Am i a joke to you
I am highly interested in the video about Turkey 🇹🇷 🙋
Ah, noted. Let's see if there are more people interested first.
Kento Bento I am too
Me too!
I live in Istanbul and I would like to see you talk about that too. Thanks :D
İstanbul çok seviyorum abi
Great video as always!Cant wait for part 3!In my opinion, the Asian borders in Turkey are in Bosphorus thus making Turkey a transcontinental country (which makes more sense to me than Greece).Turkey , as you go deeper into the country (meaning going eastern) you can see that a lot of people have more west Asian feautures than European, though in Instanbul and in Western Turkey you can see Turkish people with European feautures... For me i think the most debatable borders are ones involving Armenia, Azerbaijan and Georgia...:) Anyway,sorry for the long comment!Much love from Greece!Keep the videos coming Kento!
Zeta Kseplati do you love Turkey as a country?
No, the Bosphorus is not a continental divide. It has never been. It is just a baseless and useless mental creation that has no meaning, the Bosphorus is just a strait, the narrowest strait in the world and does not separate anything. Countries like Lebanon and Israel are in Europe.
Use spaces after your full stops
OMG you really just took photos of the two sides of Ural River in Atyrau and said that it is in Orenburg! I am personally from Atyrau and see those every day! (FYI that tall building, that you see in the picture of Asia is Marriott).
I love how epic you make this...
Those pictures of Asia and Europe are not in Orenburg. They are in Atyrau, Kazakhstan.
Ok, i appreciate the correction. I guess I got the monuments mixed up, if so.
Sam Sanjar I live in Atyrau
But again you got Australia in Eurovision!
And Israel!
sagiksp israel does not exist
It does. WTF is Palesterrorism, I mean Palestine
Oh isreal does exist
@@detectivemoustache2585 booo
As a Kazakhstan citizen I know, that we strictly separate Asia from Europe at the Kazakhstan border, where Kazakhstan will be Asia, and Russia is a part of Europe.
Where is part 3 😩
Matt The Alien Perhaps it was so complicated they gave up. :(
Still looking for part 3 months later.......

its here! ruclips.net/video/1d2RQwE6pOU/видео.html
eu and asia borders do not make sense
Yes.
The EU and Europe are not the same thing...
“EU”
I'd say Russia is European since it started in Europe and just expanded.
I'd say Turkey is Asian because a lot of it is basically middle-eastern, and the middle-east is in Asia
Chris The First Russia is a transcontinental country like Turkey, they both are in europe and asia
I agree. And also because Russia has always closely associated with other European countries, their culture is more European, and they are genetically more European.
Turkey is not a middle-east country
Neil Osterfield: I should say so, Turkey is not really a Middle East country.
Chris the First Russia is Asian, a lot more land in the Asian side than the European side. And if there is WW3 Russia will side with China. But you are right, that Russia started in Europe. Now, let's make a compromise. Russia USED to be an European country. Now its Asian because it has much more land in Asia and Europe.
Thx so much. This enlight me.
Turkey! I wanna see video from you if its European or Asian~
I'm From Sweden but i think that is a very intressting topic (I'm a bit late tho)
"A bit"
@@bilalicro how did you even find me :o
Borders have been very controversial lately😉 (although, as you point out, they have always been controversial). Thank you for addressing this important topic! 😊
"Turkey, The Mexico Of Europe"
That would be Poland, m8.

Safal Parajuli bro arabia is in Asia 🤣🤣
cyprus, Armenia, Georgia and Azerbaitjan are europe
catalonia ball agreed
Same for Lebanon and Israel.
how???
PLEASE
PART 3
I MEAN
RIGHT NOW
Well since like 70% of Russians live in European part no do not really look like asians I would say they are European
You Canadian
78% of Russians live in European part, but many of them do not consider themselves Europeans.
But they don't consider themselves 'Asian' either I guess? Ethnically they are closer to Europeans and the language is a lot like many Eastern European languages.
They are more culturally related to eastern European countries like the Balkans and the Slavs.
Overlord of Bohemia, Oakdale, and Sayville thank you for triggering millions of turks
8:22 "Not as "strait" forward", I see what you did there.
Brilliant video 👌👌👌👌👌
Eurovision mention few hours before the actual thing??
intentional...lol
Kento Bento could you do the borders of the pasific ocean? or who owns china? tiwan or mainland china?
Both Australia and Israel became countries by ethnically cleansing the former European colonies of non-European natives.
Yet, based on this shared racism, the entire world, except for Africa and Asia, is European.
Israelis are semites
Sem·iteˈsemīt/nounplural noun: Semitesa member of any of the peoples who speak or spoke a Semitic language, including in particular the Jews and Arabs.
Arabs and jews are semites, when you here the term anti semetic its just a silencing tactic, muslims are semites too.
Biblically there are many different kind of jews, ashkenzi jews are the most we see today
Israeli is a nationality; *Ashkenazim are a **_Germanic_** people of jewish **_religion._* The latter are not _Semites (a branch of Afro-Asiatic)_ and spoke Yiddish prior to their ethnic cleansing of most of Palestine. Palestinians on the other hand _are_ Semitic muslims of Hebrew descent. *Jewish =/= Semitic*
make part 3
Turkey is most definitely not European. It has a lot on common with the Arabian peninsula and Egypt.
this really helped me with my geography test. Thanks!
Russia is not asian nor european, its... Russia
JackusGomux What do you mean? Russian National Pride? Russia is not separated from Asia. Most of it spans over North Asia, Siberia.
It's the only double continent country
they are slavs
Russia origins as well as its major cities and majority of population are in Europe so to consider it an Asian country is like to consider France African country several decades ago due to its African colonies. However Russians themselves dont consider their own country as just European and use the term Eurasian. In Russia the concept of single continent Eurasia is prevalent.
It should be it’s own continent
How long until part 3 comes out?
MrDynamite110 I KNOW LIKE HOW MUCH LONGER???
a very long time
Is he comes out ?
its here! ruclips.net/video/1d2RQwE6pOU/видео.html
This was so interesting 😊
Please make part 3
Now I'm a proud European, but I think it would be better for everyone involved if we accepted that Europe is, in fact, a peninsula rather than a continent.
Alternatively we might define Europe to be wherever the locals love Cheese, in which case Turkey is welcome to join the Eu on account of their delicious brined goat cheese rolls.
no thanks. we are located %97 in asia.
@@primotef8863 theres only north and south america because americans consider themselves better than undeveloped countries. America is one continent
hi from bulgaria :) bench watched most of your videos and been a suv for 2 minths now
Much appreciated. Glad you're with us. (and I mention Bulgaria in the video!)

Can't wait to see it
Cool vids☺☺
This must have taken forever to make! Thank you :) is it a uni project or are you just really into spreading fascinating knowledge?
Just a hobby I do in my own time. Thanks for watching! 🙂
Russia, Turkey and Kazakhstan are Eurasian.
Miner Wars maybe also Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan
Miner Wars well the countrys not the people
And Cyprus
And so are all countries in europe and asia
true..
Super awesome. Where's the 3rd video?
Make part 3 please
At 7:40 there are snapshots of gazebos or pavilions indicating Asian and European sides of the River Ural. These are in Atyrau, Kazakhstan on our Ural River Bridge, not Orenburg! I'm an American who has lived in Atyrau for four years and those are our gazebos!
I actually live in the Route 2 Kazakhstan border. There is a bridge that crosses the Ural River. On one side (my side) it says Europe. The other side is Asia.
EDIT: I watched the video later and I am in the Atyrau Province and they have the same signs.
When is part 3 coming out? Its been 10 months..... I can't wait for a video, especially if it is part of a very interesting series
Best videotape
when will be part 3? -.-
part 3 happonedz
its here! ruclips.net/video/1d2RQwE6pOU/видео.html
Asia and Europe are obviously one continent geographical continent but they're divided because of ethnicity (Caucasian and 'the rest'. For this reason, to be consistent it should be either one or 6 continents (Europe, Middle east, Central Asia, Subcontinent, east Asia and south east Asia). There's no reason to cut by the Ural mountains but not the Himalayas. Continents are arbitrary division anyway.
Nathaniel Bradford I always wondered why Americans keep using such terms as Caucasian. It sounds awful, and is far from truth.
And dont get m started with whole "Hispanic race". You guys call people mostly descended from native Americans (obviously mixed with other people), by the term Hispanic. Spanish. As if Spanish language had anything to do with American race. :P
fair point but I'm Australian
Nathaniel Bradford Yeah, sorry about that. I shouldn't assume anything. Still, this concept is mainly present in the Anglosphere. Just out of curiosity, do you use the same terms as Americans in Australia? I thought that due to Australian connection with Britain, you would have more "European" terms for race and such.
If we divided countries by race,then Asian would be three continents. There's the australoid people down south in the Malay countries. The Caucasians in the west (Middle East). The mongoloids in east Asia. This all won't make sense so we should just consider Europe and Asian one continent
Its a very diverse place!
Excuse me, Croatia had been an EU member for four years by 2017, the time of publishing this video.
YOU MENTIONED KAZAKHSTAN, THANK YOU
Hmm, We also have in Kazakhstan ( Atyrau) marked division in Asia and Europe, in fact, I guess, all cities on Ural river have them
Ah ok, thanks for letting me know

Ural river bridge is not in Russia (Orenburg), it is in Kazakhstan (Atyrau).
i guess there are many bridges over the ural that use this name. like in oral, kazakhstan ( 51° 7' 31.62" N 51° 21' 50.87" E) or actually also in orenburg like he said (51.753273, 55.107241). the small picture he uses (at 7:36) is from orenburg, the photos following, i have to ask are they from atyrau? i know for a fact that orenburg also has a huge monument with europe written on one side and asia on the other, been there 15 years ago.
duwd where is Part three? I want to see it! :)
Most importantly Eurovision song contest" 😂😂

Yes there is a clear divide between asia and europe:Istabul, Caucasus Mountains, and Ural Mountains
2:52 You forgot about the Castellorizo islands.
Who else cannot wait for the next one!!!
wooooooooooooooooow my favorite channel now.
Those photos from Orenburg are in Atyrau on second photo you can see “Maryotte building” it’s located in Atyrau
I have an idea for the Europe/Asia border.
How about it goes along the Northern foothills of the Lesser Caucasus, then through the lowest points in between, then it hooks onto the Southern foothills of the Greater Caucasus mountains.
Then, it hooks onto the Sumqait river, along the Caspian Sea, and then up the Ural.
It seems to make more sense, because it considers cultural and geopolitical lines, while maintaining an unchanged physical boundary.
What do you think?
I hardly consider the caucasus to be european, only politically. Culturally the nation's have always been middle eastern/Asian. And state borders change over time. Modern day armenia is 10 percent of historic armenia, which would extend to modern day northern Iraq. Azerbaijan used to include northwestern iran. If this were the case now, would you still draw the borders with the countries?
@@tamedmook9408 caucasians are'nt middle easterns 🤦♂️ and Azerbaijanis doesnt consider themself arab or persian. Stop giving wrong informations. If you want find middle easterns. Answer:armenia
Georgia is European country
I was on the Caspian Sea in Russia and no one of the citizens there would say that they are part of Asia
Id rly want to see the turkey video mentioned in the futuree.
Part 3 please....
FINALLY!
I want to see the Turkey video
Mr.NNNick ck its a Asian country.
Arberor We are not asian nor european nor caucasian nor middle eastern. We are eurasian anatolian and we are turkish deal with it.
The image used for the markers on the two continental sides of the "Orenburg" Ural River Bridge are actually the ones in Atyrau. I don't know if they have identical markers in Orenburg or not, but the ones in this video are from Atyrau.

Enjoying this but does it need to be split over 3 videos
Part 3 please'
Europe shouldn't be a separate continent. It is neither big in area nor in population nor in diversity. Europe should be another part of Asia like middle east, south asia, east asia and south east asia
Europe, the middle east, south Asia, east Asia, Southeast Asia, and Central Asia are all diverse and could be their own continents this is why I think using culture alone is bad but it should still be used a bit also if you think Europe is too small then all of Oceania must be in Asia
@@dorotatapukoko7021 they are separated by a water body from Asia and that is the definition of a continent. Continent is a geographical term, not a cultural one
