East Asia is a subregion of Asia that can be defined in either geographical or cultural terms. Geographically, it covers about 6,640,000 km², or 15% of the Asian continent.
Culturally, it embraces those societies that have long been part of the Chinese cultural sphere:
- displaying heavy historical influence from the Classical Chinese language (including the traditional Chinese script),
- Confucianism and Neo-Confucianism
- Mahayana Buddhism,
- and Daoism (Taoism).
This combination of language, political philosophy, and religion overlaps with the geographical designation of East Asia (with the exception of the overseas Chinese, including in Singapore, Malaysia, United States, etc.) and Vietnam. The influence is also displayed in the style of architecture, traditional music and instruments, holidays, festivals, etc.
