@funsohng: And 75% of Russia is in Asia while the rest is in Europe, you don't go around saying Russia is apart of Asia just cause it's in Asia, well technically you aren't wrong or right by saying it's part of EU or Asia, you can honestly go with one or the other. Israel is banned in anything to do with it's fellow "Asia" countries while EU countries haven't.
Also this pretty much sums up what I'm trying to say
"Israel is located in the Asian continent, but because of political problems with the Arab countries that falls in Asia too, Israel is considered a European country.
Israel officially is recognized as an European country,although it is located in Asia, it falls southern Lebanon,Syria,and Turkey,where Turkey is the border of Asia and Europe,more precisely the Bosfor."
Also given the chance I'm sure N Korea would be there own Region if they could.
"Israel/ˈɪzreɪəl/, officially the State of Israel (Hebrew: מְדִינַת יִשְׂרָאֵל, Medīnat Yisrā'el, IPA: [mediˈnat jisʁaˈʔel] ( listen); Arabic: دولة إِسرائيل, Dawlat Isrāʼīl, IPA: [dawlat ʔisraːˈʔiːl]), is a country in Western Asia." - Wikipedia.
"a republic in SW Asia, on the Mediterranean: formed as a Jewish state May 1948. 7984 sq. mi. (20,679 sq. km)." - Dictionary.com
No matter what the f*ck you do, Israel is in Asia, and that will never change. They can participate in European sphere, but the boundary is clear. And you give me a quote (which I found out to be some random guy's answer in Yahoo Answers, whose answer wasn't even voted to be right) without a source?
Russia is considered "European" because of several reasons. 1) The Russian state, which has its roots from Kievan Rus, started in Europe, 2) European Russia is far more populated than Asian Russia, 3) Asian Russia was usually considered colonial territory during Imperial Russia, and 4) it's culturally East European.
And whatever the hell you say still doesn't make AC1 set in "Europe."
