This country is geographically, politically, and officially part of two continents—Europe and Asia. The smaller northwestern portion (Thrace) is part of Europe, while the larger portion (Anatolia) is part of Asia. Name this nation.

• A. Greece
• B. Turkey
• C. Russia
• D. Cyprus

Answer: (B)

The main idea is that a country can lie on both continents, with a clear geographic split. This nation has a small European part, Thrace, and a much larger Asian part, Anatolia, with cities like Istanbul spanning the boundary between the two. That physical division is matched by its political and official associations, giving it identity in both Europe and Asia. Among the options, only this country fits the Thrace-in-Europe and Anatolia-in-Asia pattern, making it the best choice. Greece is entirely in Europe, Cyprus is geographically in Asia though often linked to Europe culturally and politically, and Russia is also transcontinental but not described by the Thrace/Anatolia split.
