Category:Anatolia

Anatolia - east or sunrise, also Asia Minor, is now the majority of what we know as Turkey. The Black Sea is its boundary on the north. The Mediterranean Sea is to the south, while the Aegean Sea is to the west. Anatolia is separated from on the European mainland because through the Dardanelles and Bosphorous straits the Sea of Marmara forms a connection between the Black Sea and the Aegean Sea. It is also bordered by Georgia, Armenia, Iran, Iraq and Syria in clockwise direction.
