Since there isn't a huge number of African Esatonians I can understand why Africa was grouped with Europe, but I don't understand why the Middle East was. The Middle East is mostly in Asia, why include it with Europe?
Not that I consider this topic especially important, I would just like to know the logic behind it.
@whiz
People like to be proud of where they come from, perhaps Australians and Kiwis would like to have their own unique forum. I don't imagine many Indians (or Aussies, Kiwis, South Africans, Canadians, etc) would be happy with a 'Former British Colonies' forum!

That would be most of Esato!
I think most people here live in a Commonwealth country, the only really significant pockets of non-Commonwealth Esatonians seem to be those from the Philipines and those from Europe.

It may be geographically closer to asia but i would not label it part of asia..... it is historically and culturally not part of asia.

@Vlamm
I take your point with regards to the historical aspect, but in modern times the Middle East has been a seperate entity.
The forum works fine as it is so we would probably be best not to change it.
