| '''Northeast Asia''', sometimes Northeastern Asia, is a [[subregion]] of [[Asia]] that can be defined any of four ways:

| 1. The region bounded roughly by the Great Wall in the South, Lake Baikal in the West, the tundra in the North, and the Pacific Ocean in the East. This conception of the region draws attention to cultural and linguistic connections between the [[Mongols]], the [[Manchus]], the [[Koreans]] and other indigenous ethnic groups in the region, and to the contestation over the region between [[China]], [[Russia]] and [[Japan]] since the 17th century.

| 4. [[China]], [[Japan]] and [[Korea]]. This somewhat general usage is synonymous with the most common meaning of the term [[East Asia]] but has been adopted in response to the extension of the meaning of East Asia in diplomatic circles to include [[Southeast Asia]] and sometimes, though not very accurately even [[India]], e.g. the [[East Asian Summit]].

| 5. In [[ASEAN+3]] these countries [[China]], [[Japan]] and [[Korea]] are considered the '+3' portion of the grouping of [[ASEAN]] and are nations and cultures strongly influenced by Confucian Philosophy. North East Asians are fair with yellow tinted skin. The [[ASEAN]] [[South East Asian]] archipelago region, also [[Nusantara]], is distinct and typified by brown skinned Khmer-Austronesian Animist peoples who have nominally adopted into Middle Eastern Muslim cultures. Countries such as [[Brunei]], [[Borneo]], [[Phillipines]], [[Indonesia]] and [[Malaysia]] are considered part of South East Asia.

| Between these two regions is [[Indo-China]], which consists of [[Burma]], [[Cambodia]], [[Laos]], [[Thailand]], [[Vietnam]], nominally Animist-Buddhist regions, skin colouration varying between that of the three regions, [[North East Asia]], [[West Asia]] and [[South East Asia]]; caused from both climate and interracial mixing from proximity to both regions.
