Maybe we don't feel Asian or Middle Eastern, but we definitely are on the physical continent of Asia (Middle Eastern portion).

Although, geopolitically, we are:


But Russia above the Caucasus Mountains is 100% Europe.

Re: Which continent is Armenia in?

This is like central Americans debating whether they are North American or South American. That's why I like to say we're transcaucasian, we're both.

Re: Which continent is Armenia in?

We're in the Caucasus, xxxx Asia and Europe

Geographically in Asia, culturally in Europe.

Right on!

Re: Which continent is Armenia in?

We're not in middle east, not in Asia, not in Europe. We are in Caucasus region, we are from the rugged Caucasus mountains. Politically we are considered Europe since we are part of Council of Europe, and so on. Culturally, we are unique. a mix of elements from different culture especially Caucasian culture. We are more European than the muslim middle eastern countries but not as European as countries in western europe.

and thus, Mexico is the best choice.

Want some tacos? Churro perhaps lol?

Actually this thread is senseless as Europe and Asia is one continent, it's Eurasia, but I didn't want to say anything

Re: Which continent is Armenia in?

I voted that we're in Mexico.


As for those pics of Europe and Asia, I love how everything west of the Urals and North of the Caucasus is European, except for that chunk of Kazakhstan, which by those definitions is in Europe, and if it were part of Russia would be drawn in that way.

The real definition of where Europe is "wherever a large concentration of white people are, that are contingent to each other in the eastern hemisphere. This is why the UK and Ireland get to be in Europe and a country like morocco which is just as close, does not. You could argue geography and say 'well the UK and Ireland are on the Eurasian Plate while, Morocco is on the African one, but Iceland which counts as Europe is much further away from Europe than Morocco is and a major portion of it is actually located on the North American Plate. And besides the notions of what is and isn’t Europe came way before people figured out plate tectonics
