But by that logic, Malaysia might be considered a middle eastern country as well, which this map doesn't show. Not to mention any division that seriously places western Russia in the same category as Japan... Well, let's just say that this whole exercise is probably one in frustration.
By the way Cyn, how do I win $100 there? That sounds pretty good! (refers to map)
