yes, near, middle and far east are eurpeon centric words, --but then we are speaking a european language, last time i checked.

we could substitute near asia, mid asia, and far asia, --which is still pretty damn far from you fiberbabe...

or even west asia, mid asia, and east asia, just as we divide europe, a much smaller land mass into eastern and western europe.
