The Near East and Middle East pretty much are the same area. The Middle East is just the term in common usage.


Pretty much, my dad spent time in Bahrain, Saudi Arabia, and some other countries as a contractor. He's got some funny stories that happened all because of language differneces between countries.

He refers to that area as the near east.
