How is Asia divided into different regions?
About Asia. ... Comprising six sub-regions; South Asia, East Asia, Southeast Asia, West Asia, Central Asia, and North Asia, this diverse continent is vast as you would expect.
What are the basic considerations in Asia divisions?
It is common practice in geographic literature to divide Asia into large regions, each grouping together a number of countries. Those physiographic divisions usually consist of North Asia, including the bulk of Siberia and the northeastern edges of the continent; East Asia, including the continental part of the Russian Far East region of Siberia, the East Asian islands, Korea, and eastern and northeastern China; Central Asia, including the Plateau of Tibet, the Junggar and Tarim basins, the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region of China, the Gobi, and the Sino-Tibetan ranges; Middle Asia, including the Turan Plain, the Pamirs, the Gissar and Alay ranges, and the Tien Shan; South Asia, including the Philippine and Malay archipelagoes, peninsular Southeast Asia and peninsular India, the Indo-Gangetic Plain, and the Himalayas; and West (or Southwest) Asia, including the West Asian highlands (Anatolia, Armenia, and Iran), the Levant, and the Arabian Peninsula. Sometimes the Philippines, the Malay Archipelago, and peninsular Southeast Asia, instead of being considered part of South Asia, are grouped separately as Southeast Asia. Yet another variation of the basic categories is commonly made to divide Asia into its cultural regions.
