    Geographically the continent makes up 8.7% of the Earth's total surface area, and 29.5% of itsland area.

    In the west, Asia is bordered byEurope,the eastern coastline of theMediterranean Sea, as

    well by theSea of Marmara, theBosporus Strait, theBlack Seaand theCaspian Sea.

    In the east, Asia is bordered by thePacific Ocean,and an almost endless stretch of bays andseas.

    TheArctic Oceanand a handful of seas front the northern border, while theBering

    Seaseparates Asia fromNorth America.In the southwest theRed Seaand isthmus of Suez

    separate the continent fromAfrica.

    TheIndian Oceanfronts most of Asia's southern borders, along with a series of bays, gulfs andseas, as well as extensive chains of both inhabited and uninhabited islands.

    European Russia: The Russian landmass west of theUral Mountainsis commonly referred to

    asEuropean Russiain most educational atlases, and by the vast majority of geographyexperts.It is not a separate country, but rather called that because of its political, cultural andgeographical blendings with Europe. For reference purposes it is shown above to the west of thedashed-line, however, the entire country (as a whole) is still considered part of the continent of

    Asia.Middle East:

    Countries considered part of the Middle East (or West Asia) are shown in a lighter shade of gray.Note that they are all still a part of the continent of Asia.

    Opinions vary as to what countries make up the modern definition of Asia and the Middle East.

    Historically,ArmeniaandAzerbaijanhave been long associated with the Middle East, but inrecent years, some sources now consider them to be more closely aligned with Europe based ontheir modern economic and political trends. We have moved in that direction, and the same canbe said for the island country ofCyprus.

    Taiwan is still considered by China to be its 23rd province, and not an independent country.Very few other country governments accept China's claims of sovereignty overTaiwan.

    Turkey is officially, politically and geographically considered part of both Asia and Europe. Thesmall northwestern portion ofTurkeynamed (Thrace) is a recognized part of Europe, while the

    largest part (Anatolia) is located in the Middle East, a part of Asia.

    ASIA DESERTS:

    Several significant deserts stretch across Asia and the Middle East. Here we highlight on the mapand briefly describe the major ones, including the Arabian, Gobi, Karakum, Kyzylkum, TaklaMakan and Thar.

    Arabian DesertThe Arabian Desert is a vast desert wilderness stretching from Yemen to the Persian Gulf andfrom Oman to Jordan and Iraq. This desert is located in the Middle East, and we have additionaldetails and map.

    Gobi DesertThe Gobi Desert is the largest desert in Asia, covering 500,000 square miles. Extending fromnorthern China into Mongolia, the Gobi Desert receives an average of 7 inches of rainfall each

    year because the Himalaya mountains block rain clouds from reaching the region.

    Kara Kum DesertThe Kara Kum covers 135,000 square miles, nearly 70 percent of Turkmenistan's land. Becauseof the desert's location along the Caspian Sea, the weather in Karakum is milder than manyAsian deserts, which typically experience frigid winters and scorching summers.

    Kyzyl Kum DesertCrossing over Kazakhstan into Uzbekistan, this 115,000 square mile desert features a widevariety of flora and fauna. Though the area only receives 4 to 8 inches of rain per year, the rainoccurs during the region's cooler period so the water does not dissipate quickly and supports

    large migratory game.Takla Makan DesertChina's largest desert extends over 123,550 square miles. Composed primarily of shiftingcrescent sand dunes, the Takla Makan is one of the largest sandy deserts in the world. Despitethe inhospitable and unpredictable nature of the desert sands, the Chinese government erected aroad across the desert in the mid-1990s.

    Thar DesertCovering 77,000 square miles in India and Pakistan, the Thar Desert is Asia's only subtropicaldesert. Primarily occupying the Indian state of Rajasthan, the Thar receives up to 20 inches ofrain per year, primarily during the monsoon period from July to September, and most crops are

    grown during this rainy season.

    ASIA LAKES:

    Dozens of significant lakes are found in Asia. Here we highlight a few on the map and (briefly) describe

    the three most significant including the Caspian Sea, Lake Baikal and the Aral Sea.Caspian SeaThe Caspian Sea, located in western Asia on the eastern edges of Europe, is the largest lake on the planet.History records that it's called a sea because the Romans found it salty, especially in the southern reaches,and the name stuck. Oil and natural gas production platforms are replete along the edges of the sea. Inaddition, large quantities of sturgeon live in its waters, and the caviar produced from their eggs is avaluable commodity. Fresh water flows into the sea via the Volga River and Ural River in the north,however, the sea remains somewhat salty, central and southThe measured surface area is 371,000 sq km(143,244 sq mi), and the maximum depth is at 1025 m (3,363 ft).Additional details and map.Lake BaikalLake Baikal is positioned in southeastern (Siberia) Russia, directly to the north of Mongolia. Recognizedas the oldest (still existing) freshwater lake on the planet, it is also measured as the deepest continental

    body of water at 5,315 feet (1,620 m). In addition, it is the largest freshwater lake by volume, containingan astounding 20% of the planet's fresh water. With a maximum width of 60 miles (96 km), Lake Baikalis about 389 miles (626 km) in length. Completely surrounded by mountains, over 300 rivers and streamsdrain into this massive lake.Detailed map.Aral SeaPositioned in far-western Asia, just to the east of the Caspian Sea, the Aral Sea is located in the countriesof Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. The Aral Sea is disappearing (evaporating) and is today almost totallypolluted by fertilizer runoff, weapon testing residue left here by the former Soviet Union and carelessindustrial projects. The mismanagement of its valuable waters is consider by many experts to be one ofthe world's worst environmental disasters. Diversion of the Amu Darya and Syr Darya rivers for irrigationbegan in 1918, and that action, along with other factors have now shrunk the Aral Sea to almost 60% ofits former size. Over the last few years the outlook for the northern reaches of the sea have brightened

    some, but the lower half is basically abandoned and the remaining western waters are now predicted to begone within a decade.

    ASIA MOUNTAINS:Several significant mountain ranges stretch across Asia. Here wehighlight on the map and describe the major ones, including the Altay, Gahats, Himalayan,Kunlun, Tien Shan, Ural and Zagros MountainsAltay (or Altai)The Altay Mountains are a mountain range in East-Central Asia, where Russia, China, Mongoliaand Kazakhstan come together, and where the rivers Irtysh and Ob have their sources. BelukhaMountain is the highest peak at 4,506 m, (14,784 ft).GhatsThe Western Ghats are a mountain range along the western side of India with an averageelevation around 1,200 m, (3,900 ft). The Eastern Ghats are a range of mountains along India'seastern coast. The highest point is Jindhagada Peak at 1,690 m (5,545 ft).

    HimalayasThe Himalayas, a huge mountain range immediately at the north of the Indian subcontinent, isthe world's highest mountain range, and home to the world's highest peaks, including MountEverest at 8,848 m (29,029 ft), and K2 at 8,611 m (28,251 feet) above sea level. The Himalayansystem includes over 100 mountains exceeding 7,200 m (23,600 ft).KunlunThe Kunlun Mountains are one of the longest mountain chains in Asia, extending across westerChina and the Tibetan Plateau. The highest mountain is the Kunlun Goddess at 7,167 m (23,514

    ft).

    Tien (or Tian) ShanThe Tian Shan is a large mountain system located in Central Asia. It's positioned to the north andwest of the Taklamakan Desert near the border region of Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and westernChina. The highest peak is Victory Peak at 7,439 m (24,406 ft).

    UralThe Urals are 1,640 miles (2,640 km) in length and extend from the northern-edge of the RussianFederation down through Kazakhstan. They form a natural border between Asia and EuropeRussia. The highest point in this mountain range is Mt. Narodnaya at 1,895 m (6,217 ft).

    ZagrosThe Zagros are the largest mountain range in Iran and Iraq spaning the whole length of thewestern and southwestern Iranian plateau and ending at the Strait of Hormuz. The highest pointis Zard Kuhbakhtiari at 4,548 m, (14,921 ft).

    ASIA RIVERS:

    Dozens of significant rivers rise in Asia. Here we highlight a few on the map and (briefly)describe some of the most significant ones, including the Ganges, Indus, Lena, Mekong, Ob,Yangtze and Yellow.

    GangesThe Ganges is the most sacred river to Hindus and is also a lifeline to millions of Indians wholive along its course and depend on it for their daily needs. It is 1,560 miles (2,510 km) in

    length.

    LenaThe Lena is the easternmost of the three great Siberian rivers that flow into the Arctic Ocean (theother two being the Ob River and the Yenisei River). It is the 11th longest river in the world at2,734 miles (4,400 km).

    IndusThe Indus River originates in Tibet and flows through India and Pakistan. It provides waterresources for the economy of Pakistan - especially the Breadbasket of the southeast, whichaccounts for most of the nation's agricultural production. It is 1,800 miles (2,900 km) in length.

    MekongThe Mekong is the world's 10th-longest river and the 7th-longest in Asia. Its estimated length is3,050 (4,909 km) and it provides inland transportation for the millions living along its banks, andtributaries

    ObThe Ob is a major river in western Siberia, Russia. The Ob is used mostly for irrigation, drinkingwater, hydroelectric energy, and fishing. It's 2,268 miles (3,650 km) in length.

    Yangtze

    China's Yangtze is the longest river in Asia, and the fourth longest in the world at 3,915 miles(6,301 km). The Yangtze drains one-fifth of the land area of the People's Republic of China andits river basin is home to one-third of China's population.

    YellowThe Yellow River is the second-longest river in China and the sixth-longest in the world at 3,395miles (5,464 km) in length. It's called "the cradle of Chinese civilization" as its basinspecifically, the Wei valleywas the birthplace of ancient Chinese civilizations and the mostprosperous region in early Chinese history.

    Middle East Rivers

    Dozens of rivers are found in the Middle East (Asia). Most are small, so here we highlight thefour major ones, and offer a brief description.Amu Darya:This river flows from a high plateau in the Pamir Mtns. of central Asia, across southernTajikistan, forming its border with Afghanistan, then northwest, forming parts of the bordersbetween Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan and on into the Aral Sea. It's (1,578 miles) (2,539 km) inlength. In ancient times the Amu Darya was called the Oxus. It was part of Persia, and played asignificant role in the military campaigns of Alexander the Great.

    Euphrates:From the Caucasus Mtns of Armenia, it flows southwesterly across east-central Turkey, thengenerally southeast through Syria and Iraq, ending in the waters of the Persian Gulf. It joins with

    the Tigris in southern Iraq, and from that junction continues on as the Shatt al Arab. Overall it's(2,235 miles) (3,596 km) in length, and is certainly the longest river in the Middle East.Historically important in ancient history, the once great city of Babylon stood on its banks.

    Indus:

    It begins in the high mountains of Tibet (southwestern China), flowing northwest through theJammu & Kashmir region of India and Pakistan, then generally south through Pakistan, ending inthe Arabian Sea. The Indus, through a series of dams and canals, provides much of the irrigationand power for central Pakistan. It's (1,800 miles) (2,896 km) in length.

    Tigris:Rising in the mountains of southern Turkey, the Tigris flows southeast through Iraq, where in thesouthern part of that country it merges with the Euphrates to become the Shatt al Arab, whichthen flows to the Persian Gulf. The river has numerous small tributaries running from its easternbank, and is (1,180 miles) (1,899 km) in length.

    There are hundreds of interesting sites spread across the Middle East and these are but a few. For
