The Border Between Asia And Europe

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: A map depicting different definitions of the Europe-Asia border
 
Europe
 
Asia
 
Territory which has historically been placed in Europe and/or Asia
  • Line A follows the Don and Manych Rivers
  • line B follows the Don River until Volgograd (continued under D or C, depending on convention)
  • line C follows the Volga from Volgograd until Samara, continued under E or F depending on convention
  • line D follows the Don past Volgograd, cutting north overland to Archangelsk staying west of the Volga.
  • line E follows the Volga until the Samara bend, and then cuts northwest to the Northern Dvina, ending at Archangelsk. This convention is used by Christoph Weigel in his Asia Vetus map, published 1719.
  • line F leaves the Volga at the Samara bend, cutting to the lower Irtysh and the Ob River. Used by Johann Baptist Homann in his Recentissima Asiae Delineatio, published 1730.
  • lines G and H follows the Don and the Volga (B, C, F), but then cuts across to the Urals south of Perm (G) and leaves the Ural watershed, reaching the coast of the Arctic Ocean west of the Yugorsky Peninsula (H)
  • line I follows the Kura, Rioni, and Aras river definitions, which have been used in classical Greek and later Soviet geography. [1] [2]

The discussion in question has nothing to do with maintaining this file. Also re-read the rules to which you yourself refer, the edits that I made to this file DO NOT contradict these rules, and do not require a separate file upload for this (since we are talking about a cosmetic restoration of the file, with improved shading for its visualization).
