New Re: I don't recall 100%....
Technical divison between Europe and Asia is the [link|http://school.discovery.com/homeworkhelp/worldbook/atozgeography/e/186660.html|Ural Mountains] in Russia, at least to the East. According to the link, the southern border would be the Mediterranean Sea, which if you extend that to include the Black Sea, would exclude Turkey and all of the Middle East.

One page I read in my very brief search for a link stated "most geographers agree that the Urals are eastern border of Europe."

I suspect the Urals limited European expansion to the East very early on and they themselves set that imaginary boundary.
