In Asia the Arab world consists of Palestine (Jerusalem), Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates, Iran, Oman, Barain, Qatar, Kuwait and Yemen. Turkey is considered to be part of the ME but they do not speak Arabic.
In Africa: Egypt, Morocco, Algeria, Lybia, Sudan, Tunisia,
In the gulf countries like (Saudi Arabia, Oman, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar and UAE) we all talk Arabic but in different accents. So does Palestine, Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, they do talk arabic but in different accents but because the French have been in these countries years ago, the country been affected by that and now the majority speak french fluently.
I apologise if i have left any country or fact out but i hope this link helps you

Shadow Lady can also comment, but It's a mixture of cultural, religious and language differences between the three "groups" amongst a list of other things. Let me see if I could sum it up for you.
Arabian or Arab is a race, found in countries such as Saudia Arabia [woot woot!], Syria, lebanon, Jordan, Palestine,Iraq , Kuwait , Bahrain , Egypt , Qatar and many more.
Middle east is a REGION in Asia which includes countries that are Arabian and non Arabian, such as Iran and Afghanistan [which are NOT considered Arab/Arabian]. The Middle East is a region that stretches from Iran in western Asia to Egypt in eastern Africa. & From Turkey in the north to Yemen in the south. Some people include more countries that are located farther to the east or west. Anyways, people from the Middle East are also of several races, believe in different religions & speak different languages. for example, people from Israel consider themselves to be "middle eastern" yet they are NOT muslim etc.
and Persians are from the country of Iran. They go by Iranians or by persians [long history of the 'name change'].
Somebody can be something of them, some of them or all of them.
ex. An Arab from Lebanon could be a Christian and speak Arabic.
Hope this clears up some confusion.
nunu- if you dont mind me asking, which country are you from?

[/quote]I disagree. Perhaps its a regional thing? your from Canada right? I am from California and all the persian people i know classify themselves as being "brown or person of color". Irrelevant of your actual skin color because we [/quote]
yeah I am Persian/Canadian and I identify with both countries, and you may be right. Iranians here don't classify themselves as brown or white. Just middle eastern or Persian. I actually do consider myself a WOC (like I said I'm an NW30, that's WOC, right?), just not brown.
don't know if I make sense.
Quote:
Persians are originally of a race called Aryan who migrated to the Iranian Plateau in about 5000 B.C. Iran actually means the land of Aryan and the country has always been called that by Iranians (in the West, it used to be known as Persia). Iran or the Persian Empire ruled the world for years before the arrival of the arabs to the country. When the arabs brought Islam to Iran there was obviousely some mixing between the races. Since then we use the same alphabet as arabic (the same way english and french have the same alphabet). However, the Iranians kept their language (Persian) and have struggled to maintain the separate identity througout the centuries. Like I said because of the lack of general knowledge (especially in north america) about Persian history and identity, I find Iranians to be very sensitive on the topic. Wikipedia's page on Iran is pretty accurate, here it is:

Would you consider people from Armenia, Azerbejan and Georgia to be Middle Eastern? I have known people from Armenia and Georgia who call themselves Eastern European. I have actually known people from Turkey to call themselves Eastern European too.
Anyway, all the makeup is off the hook!

well, it depends, the boundaries of ME are very vague and depending on which maps you look at, Azerbejan and Armenia are or are not part of ME. I don't see how they're part of Europe though
Anyway, most Iranian Armenians (and there's a lot of them) consider themselves ME and they look exactly like the Armenians from Armenia. The whole point is that we're all mixed. The boundaries of ME are a political matter.
