Need Geography Help

[Eric5273]

Most of you probably have heard me talk about my music publishing company. Our area is "production music", which is music used in television production, and one of the areas we specialize in is ethnic/international music.

We are currently working on an online search engine where producers will be able to search for and audition music over the net, and we are sub-dividing all of our ethnic music into countries and then into regions.

Three of the regions are as follows:

Middle East
Europe
Asia

Where would you categorize the following countries:

Turkey
Cyprus
Armenia
Azerbaijan
Georgia


I'm pretty sure Turkey and Cyprus should go under "Middle East" since they are very close to that area and their music has a Middle Easter flavor to it, but I'm not sure at all about the other three. Any opinions would be appreciated.

Here are a couple of maps for reference:

Turkey, Cyprus, Azerbaijan: Middle East

Georgia, Armenia: Europe

I based this on religion.

Middle East: Turkey
Europe: Cyprus (It's in the EU)
Asia: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia

Turkey is part of Minor Asia so I would say both Middle East and Asia are correct
