Which continent is Armenia in?

[Parskahye]

Which one do you consider Armenia to be in? I'm not including a transcontinental option just to make the poll interesting. So where is Armenia in: Europe or Asia?

it is situated on a constellation named Orion, no I'm just joking. Well is considered Europe half of Russia from the Oural river going west including the Caucasus, so Armenia is considered Europe, besides that Europeans and usually the French consider Armenians when speaking as the Europeans of the east

Good point, but some countries that are considered Asian, for example Iraq, are also west of the Oural river. But, I'm leaning towards Europe anyway since they were included in Euro 2008.

Re: Which continent is Armenia in?

Geographically, we're up for grabs.

Culturally, we're European with Near Eastern influences.

Racially, we're Caucasian.

Ultimately, we're Armenian and that's all that matters.

Culturally, we're European with Middle Eastern influences

I would amend this and change 'Middle Eastern' to Near Eastern, which is more accurate in geographical and politcal terms.
