There was an article recently about how the West Asia war is quickly decarbonising South Asia. Lot of solar and wind projects in the pipeline for SA countries. Especially because now renewables are a national security issue
The entire continent doesn't even make sense. Geographically, sure, culturally, absolutely not. It should either be Eurasia or probably about 5 different continents (South of Himalaya aka Indian subcontinent, North of Himalaya aka Siberia + Central Asia + China + South East Asia, South of Caucasus + Kopet Dag aka Middle East, etc).
The entire region needs a better name. It's own name, something that's not meant to be "in the middle, between more important regions", "west of what people consider more important".
I was actually thinking about that and stuff like "Fertile Crescent" would be more neutral (but it risks not covering places like Arabia).
I wonder if locals have a generic name for the entire region that's more appropriate.
