As the other two answers state, traditionally it has been the geographical locations of the ural mountains and the black sea area.
Now though I would say politically europe is expanding, I believe beople consider the qwhole of russia to be a part of europe and as well as that, I have heard recently people say kazakhstan is part of europe. I personally consider Russia and Turkey as part of europe, but any countries borders who start further East are Asia

It has to be geographically because other criteria requires clearcut definition which is bound to be subjective.
Geographically: The Bosphorus (Istanbul Strait) forms the boundary between the European part (Rumelia) of Turkey and its Asian part (Anatolia). It connects the Black Sea with the Sea of Marmara (Aegean Sea - Mediterranean Sea).
