The funniest thing in geography is Europe being a continent, the small Ural Mountains demarcating it from Asia; while India is a subcontinent despite historically being a separate landmass now bounded by the mightiest mountains on earth.
Europe and Asia and one continent, Eurasia. The location of a place like Armenia proves this.
Turkey is in Asia, Azerbaijan is in Asia, so Armenia is in Asia. Similar to how Pakistan is Middle Eastern.
Pakistan is not middle eastern, it's Southern Asia, located on the Indian subcontinent. Further more Turkey and Azerbaijan are Turks, who originally came from Central Asia, and they are also Muslim countries. Armenia is a native Caucasian Christian nation. In my opinion they are more similar to Europe than they are to their southern neighbors, at least culturally. But either way they are Caucasian (from Caucasus mountains) which can be thought of as its own little continent, probably one of the most diverse linguistic and cultural places in the world. There are 28 major ethnolinguistics groups living there, and probably even more.
