Europe, the Middle East and Africa
Europe, the Middle East and Africa, usually abbreviated as EMEA (or EMEIA if India is included), is a regional designation used for government, marketing and business purposes. It is particularly common amongst North American companies.
The region is generally accepted to include all European nations, all African Nations, and extends east to Iran, but not including Russia. Typically this does not include independent overseas territories of mainland countries in the region, such as French Guyana.
