actually, i always thought countries whereby the population majority is white == west.
u look at Australia and New Zealand.
technically, they're considered in Asia, but they've never been classified as East.
in fact, Australia is always referred to as part of the West. -

The boundary between Asia and Africa was generally taken to be the Nile River. In the fifth century BC, however, objected to the unity of Egypt being split into Asia and Africa ("Libya") and took the boundary to lie along the western border of Egypt, regarding Egypt as part of Asia -

a historian's view of which country is considered eastern and western is probably diff from a psychologists view of what's east and whats west.
