Definition
Relating to or coming from Eurasia, the combined continents of Europe and Asia, or of mixed European and Asian ancestry.
Etymology
From 'Euro-' (Europe) combined with 'Asian,' creating a single term to describe the vast landmass or people from both continents. The term became more common in the 20th century as a geographic and demographic descriptor during periods of increased global mobility.
Kelly Says
Eurasia is home to about 75% of the world's population! The term 'Eurasian' also became significant in colonial history—mixed-race people of European and Asian descent in colonial Asia were categorized as 'Eurasian,' a category that had real legal and social consequences under colonial systems.
