The best part of this exercise is the presumption that one corner of Africa isn’t part of Africa but rather the Middle East.

It’s arbitrary borders all the way down.

If you go down that route, the outer borders are of currently existing countries. "Middle east" doesn't have precise borders and the answer of where it is changed based on who you ask to.
