None.
Officially none. However there is a neo-con pushed idea that Afghanistan and Pakistan are "part of the middle east", along with most of North Africa and half of east Africa.. basically everywhere there is a Muslim.
I guess it depends on who's map you are looking at but I voted "none." Afghanistan is really close though.
Hatuey,
Is Egypt in the Middle East?
Meaningless thread and quiz if you ask me.
IS it supposed to be fuel for the apologists or something?
I'm not interested in that. I'm interested in where these countries are located.
One is on the horn of Africa, 2 are in the Indians Sub-Continent and the rest are in Asia.. so 1 Africa and rest Asia if you want the ball park

ME = Asia
Well just curious whether or not being in Africa precludes it's inclusion in the middle east in your mind. You said Afghanistan is close but not quite, and I'd agree with that.
Somalia would be the toughest to say, but no it's not either.
What do you think makes up the border of the "Middle East"?
You ask what you claim is a simple geographical question then start dividing by politics?Egypt isn't in Asia. Turkey and Cyprus would certainly dispute that as well as Cyprus is part of the European Union and Turkey wants to become part of the European Union.
I smell a bait thread. :beer:
