(PART 1: AUSTRALIA & AFRICA)] Asia is the largest of all continents, covering an area of 44,579,000 square kilometres, that's 30% of the Earth's total land area. It has given rise to many of the world's first civilizations, and has long been home to the majority of the human population. But have you ever wondered what actually counts as Asia? Where exactly are the borders? Do they sit nicely in between countries, or can a country be divided? This video is part one of a three part series. We cover the specific Asian borders following the coastal regions from the Tumen River between North Korea & Russia to the Suez Canal in Egypt. In between, we go over Japan's Bonin (Ogasawara) Islands, the Malay Archipelago, Indonesia's border with Papua New Guinea, the Wallace Line, the Weber Line, Asian continental shelf, the Middle East, Yemen's Socotra Archipelago, Afro-Eurasia, Egypt's border, and more. Part two will cover the messy Europe Asia border, Russia's continental status, and the North America Asia border that isn't as simple as you might think.
