Non-islands are located between 0-37 N and 60° E-97° E, basically between10 N-30 N, and the distance from north to south and east to west is about 3 100 km. There are seven countries in South Asia, Nepal and Bhutan are landlocked countries, India, Pakistan and Bangladesh are coastal countries, and Sri Lanka and Maldives are island countries.

3. Southeast Asia

Southeast Asia (SEA) is located in the southeast of Asia, including Indochina Peninsula and Malay Archipelago. Indo-China Peninsula is named because it is located in the south of China, and the slender part in the south is called Malay Peninsula.

Spanning a vast latitude and longitude, the time difference between east and west reaches 1 1 ~ 13 hours. The west is connected with Europe, forming the largest land on earth-Eurasia.
