Why isn't Arabian peninsula considered as South Asian?

No, i am just writing what anyone with basic geography knowledge would say, and if you agree with that geopolitical term, you should add Georgia to Eastern Europe.

Georgia lol. Georgia is Asian, it only slightly has some European culture via Russia. Georgia is northeast of Turkey. If Georgia was not Christian no one would include it in Europe. Aside from the fact that area was heavily influenced by Persian culture until the 17th century, when Russia took control of most of the Caucasian region from Persia.

Are you retarted or yes?

I am partially agreeing to what you said, dumbass, Albania were considered Eastern Europe by geopolitical terms, but NOT by geographical terms, and they were considered Southern Europeans by many people.

No you are stating your useless thinking. I'm saying you that countries I named are in Europe considered eastern european. So why should I give a fuck what you think? You are not even European which is proving a point...
It's like saying people in USA consider apple to be yellow and you saying "No it's red". How is that gonna change the fact they consider it as a yellow fruit??

That is my point, both Georgia and Albania, are not "from Eastern Europe", even when they share some similarities with Eastern Europe.

The same thing could be said about Iran and the Arabian Peninsula and the South Asia region.

No, you are not right. It doesn't make sense map-wise to compare it to Iberia. Iberia is still closer and connected to the rest of Europe.



The Arabian Peninsular on the other hand just looks a larger part of the Middle East, and Iraq is between the Levant and Iran which is considered a Middle Eastern country not South Asian.

Comparing Georgia to Albania is not fair. Albania is clearly Balkan nation and Eastern European. Genetically Albanians are Med and most original Balkan people were similar to them before the Slavic migrations. Yes there are similarities between Arabia and Iran but they are very culturally different. Georgia has a lot in common with Iran, more than Arabia does. South Asia is very distinct region culturally from Iran or Arabia.

It’s Southwest Asian. It’s also should be a subcontinent or a continent but then it will include everything that’s on the Arabian plate. Which some non ethnic groups would rather be called Asians rather than Arabians like Kurds, Israelis, Leb Christian’s ect.

Even though I differentiate Gulf and Peninsular Arabs from the Levantines, I do think that region should've been its own continent: The Arabian continent. God these minorities groups like the Assyrians, Kurds and Iranians will be hard pressed to be called "Arabians" since they so viciously can't stand being called Arabs. Lolz

I don't think that's justified, lebanese share a lot genetically with arabs, speak an arabic dialect, write in arabic, use MSA in their daily newspaper and medias, were under arab rule and identified as arabs for millenias, had arab tribes living on its territory for millenias, etc "iranics" and north africans didn't have that chance unfortunately
