UN geoscheme.
UN geoscheme (CC BY Ben Arnold, E Pluribus Anthony). West Asia is purple.

The geoscheme of the United Nations (UN) subdivides Asia into the subregions: Eastern Asia, Central Asia, South Asia, Southeast Asia, Western Asia, Russia (Asia) commonly called Siberia (because Siberia is defined as the Asian part of Russia).

West Asia is culturally dominated by the Mesopotamian and partially by the Persian culture(s). However, continuous exchange with South European cultures in the north and with the Egyptian culture in the southwest strongly influenced all developments.
