Introduction

Physical geographers, for a long time, have found it hard to define the boundaries of the European continent on its eastern region. Thus, this essay seeks to analyze the European boundaries, with a keen interest in defining the areas that can make the eastern boundary of the continent.

It should be noted that the European continent is bounded by a mass of water bodies (oceans), but on its eastern part, the region is mountainous. Thus, it becomes difficult to explain whether the whole stretch of the mountains is part of Europe or is part of Asia. Thus, the question is asked: are the Ural Mountains in Russia the true definition of the eastern boundary of the European continent? This essay is in support of this, with the argument that these, indeed, are the true definitions of the eastern boundary.

The long stretch of the Ural Mountains (approx. 1,550 miles), which are found in Russia, cannot be cut in any way to form the end of the eastern boundary. In this case, it is argued that the place where the 1,550 miles end, that is the end of the European eastern mountain (DeBlij & Muller, 2010). It is well noted that due to this areas high production of metal goods, machinery, and chemicals, it is argued over, with some geographers arguing that it belongs in the Asian continent.

Indeed, since the largest industrial regions in Russia are found in the central and southern Ural Mountains, those areas are claimed by both continents. As geographic analysts have observed, Chelyabinsk city, which forms the capital city of the large region of Chelyabinsk, is approx. 62 degrees of the eastern longitude and approximately 55 degrees of the northern longitude. It is in the southern region of the mountains, approximately 1600 kilometers east of Moscow city in Russia. This city is the true boundary between the Asian continent and the eastern continent. Thus, it is only logical for it to be stated in this paper that the Ural Mountains, in which it is found the city of Chelyabinsk, form the much argued about the eastern boundary. (DeBlij & Muller, 2010).

Conclusion

It was noted in the above argument that many geographic analysts are yet to agree upon a true area that defines the eastern boundary of the European continent. However, it should not be of much trouble to anybody to pick from this essay that the eastern boundary of the European continent is defined by the Urals, the large stretch of mountains that are found in Russia. Thus, it has been statistically stated that the city of Chelyabinsk, therefore, is in Europe and not in Asia, as claimed by some geographers. Thus, the end of this city, specifically, is the beginning of the Asian continent as it marks the eastern boundary of the European continent.
