Trans means across. Caucasia is a name for the area around the Caucasus mountains in south west Asia. Transcaucasia is the area near the southern border between Europe and Asia. It's another name for South Caucasus. Eurasia is a combination to the names of two continents. Europe and Asia. If you look at a map its easy to see how you could think everything from Portugal all the way passed Siberia to Korea as one big land mass. It would be called Eurasia. Siberia is almost as far east as Korea. The largest lake it Eurasia is Baikal, located in Siberia.
