Question

what is oriental world? Explain with example ​

Answer 1

The Orient is a historical term for the East , traditionally comprising anything that belongs to the
Eastern world , in relation to Europe . In English , it is largely a metonym for, and coterminous with, the
continent of Asia , loosely classified into the Near East , Middle East and Far East : the directional regions now known today as western Asia, southern Asia, eastern Asia, and southeast Asia (Note that traditionally directional regions of a continent do not use an upper-case letter). Originally, the term Orient was used to designate the Near East, and later its meaning evolved and expanded, designating also the Middle East or the Far East.
The term Oriental is often used to describe objects from the Orient. However, given its Eurocentric connotations and shifting, inaccurate definition through the ages, it may be considered offensive as a label for people from East Asia.
