This reflects the European perspective. The New World was the new continent the Europeans explored, the Far East is eastern Asia, because for the Europeans to reach eastern Asia, they would have to travel through all of Asia to reach places like China, Southwest Asia is referred to as the Middle East because it lies directly South to Europe and more west than places like Eastern Asia.
