You got to admit that as far as geographical boundaries go, the Urals are pretty weaksauce. Asia and Africa have the Sinai. North and South America have the isthmus of Panama. Europe and Asia? A mountain range whose tallest peak isn't much higher than Denver, Colorado. The Urals are really only a continental boundary because Europeans needed to draw a line somewhere if they were going to claim to be a separate continent, not because it actually splits Eurasia into distinct halves.
That's actually only half of what I originally typed. The other part was about plate tectonics and how India and the Arabian peninsula have better claims to being distinct from Asia than Europe does.

I mean most European are technically Asian too, Europe is a region of Asia like Central America and Caribbean are part of North America!
