Which colour line most accurately divides Europe and Asia?
figured using the placement along the Black and Caspian seas was a good working Metric, but obviously the most accurate dividing line is probably not exactly any one of these.
Somewhere between blue and pink
>>59729250
the pink one
>>59729250
red desu
red
cyan
Below the black sea: the bosporos, slightly to the right of the red line.
Above the black sea: the green line
Blue. Georgia and Armenia are part of European history via their relationships with the Roman Empire.
none because europe doesn't exist, it is an asian peninsula
Depends what you want. Historical division? Cultural division? Geographical division? Political division?
Green.

Red in modern times, orange historically
Anatolia was pretty Greek

The eastern border is supposed to go through the Ural mountains. Otherwise good.

It fully depends what context you want. Culturally modern Turkey isnt' European (it's part of the middle-eastern sphere). Historically Anatolia (through Byzantium and Ottoman Empire) has been closely tied with European politics and power plays. Geographically it belongs to Asia (known as Asia Minor).
let me add a north south colour axis and see how that changes things

>>59729521
West of green and north of blue
>>59729521
Okay this is a bit of a complex answer, but here we go:
Everything to the north of the pink x axis until it reaches the orange y axis. After it hits the orange y axis, everything to the north of the blue x axis.
Then, everything to the west of the space between the blue and pink y axes.
Europe and Asia has generally been divided by Ural moutains in North, Caucasus mountains, Bosphorus strait and Mediterranean
>>59729443
well if we will play like that historically turkey also used to own a large chunk of land in the balkans and the coast of black sea
i would run with more of a ethnocentric + cultural division. geographical and historical division doesn't necessarily work
>>59729636
Which why I said Anatolia has high historical connection to Europe (just like people who claim Russia isn't part of Europe (it is, has always been)). But modern turkey seems bit of a left out, it's not really Middle-eastern but not European either. Culturally you are more Middle-eastern, but your politics (or at least used to) copy a lot from European side.

the ethnocentric models fall apart pretty quickly though. If we do ethno-linguistics, Finland and Albania are anomolies. If we do religion, enclaves like Albania, Kosovo, Bosinia, Georgia, Armenia, Chechnia, Uzbekistan, etc. fuck the whole thing up.
I think if we are going to do a cultural model we have to do it based on the flow of power as tied to ethnic groups. That solves the problem of religious enclaves, linguistic anomalies, and the Russian diaspora in Central Asia. That still doesn't solve the problem of the Turks though, seeing as you guys projected power in both directions. But that's fine, the Turks in Turkey can be a wierd interzone between Europe and Asia... but Turkish Kurdistan is definitely Asia.
>>59729636
This Anatolia is Europe
>>59729685
Well, Russia has always been an outsider in Europe. Petyr did a good job with his plans, but in the end Russia today is still an outsider. But I'd definitely deem them part of europe tho. At least those living in the historical Rus area.
the white people
>>59729961
Historically Russia is European country with conquests in Asia and Turkey is Asian country with conquest in Europe.
>>59730129
Not denying it.
Fuck those lines. Here's the real geographical border of Europe
>>59729328
>>59729360
Actually, even ancient Greeks already considered Anatolia and Caucasus a part of Asia.
>>59729357
the ural mountain and the river is the most reasonable border of europe and asia
>>59729250
Something between red and orange. Western part of Ukraine is definitely European.

>>59729250
Red. Europe is bordered by Carpathian mountains from the west. What you have further is a typical Asian plain with monotone landscape. Geographical circumstances create economical, and they create cultural. Some countries may have big European influence though like Russia, Turkey or Japan because of westernization.
Also I am surprised to see ITT so many morons who claim us to be European. What's their point? We barely had intercourses with Europeans before Petr I, we only fought back European invasions. We had no trade, no cultural relationships. We traded with Byzantium, Horde (and we were a part of Horde for 250 years), Arabs (Baltic-Black Sea trade route). Our model of feudalism, religion, culture and economy were different.

No. It literally is not.
Ever heard of "nominal" and "in reality."
Nominally, the caucasus were named for the caucasian people.
But the people that live there now are neither white nor European.
Also, only America uses the retarded Caucasian=white designation.

Countries which had universities before 1700 are Europe.

Shut the fuck up you muslim niggershit.
One look at Caucasian people shows you a brown, hairy, and brown eyes race.
Just like Anatolia used to be white, European, and Greek... Caucasus used to be.
Not anymore. But the name hasn't changed.
Kill yourself Ahmed.
>>59742457
Belarus and Eastern Ukraine literally are Russians. They speak Russian. They have the same religion. Genetics are the same. They look the same. Many say they are the same.
Russians are not European. Therefore these Russians in other countries are not either.

They are not European but they are white by sll standards except Armenians and Azerbaijanians. Chechens are white as fuck for example
>>59742668
He is correct, they are MENA actually.
>>59742888
>white
So what? How can pale skin make you a European? It's about history and culture. We obtained links with Europe only in 18th century and barely had contacts before it except European crusades and invasions. We are orthodox Christians as well as Arab Christians, Ethiopians, etc. Are Ethiopians European? Our political system has always been 100% Asian, our feudalism evolved different from Europe etc.
