They are all equally Asian.
I am just categorizing based on what I personally identify as most Asian.

Quote from ArtifactMaybe he's just categorizing which ones he stretches the corners of his eyes the most to.
Like I said.

You're going out of your way to stretch my words lol.
They are all considered Asian countries. But when someone tells you to visualize an Asian person, what image comes to your mind first? It's a stereotype. Some countries conform to my image less than others. Yet I am perfectly aware they are all equally Asian. See where I am going?
Just as many of you would automatically imagine Americans rather than Australians or British if I told you to visualize a white person (I would say westerner, but Australia is pretty much bordering Asia).

I think it's grown into people that the term 'Asian' stands for people living in the Eastern part of the continent.

Yes Ahmad is right.
These days it's more about culture rather than geographical location. And the media loves using Chinese culture when representing Asia.

Is there any particular Asian culture that you guys find more interesting/intriguing than others? I was always wayyy more interested in Japanese culture and history than any other.
