Australia and Indonesia are the only two countries in Asia with territories in the Southern Hemisphere. Australia's external territories of Christmas Island, Cocos (Keeling) Islands, and Norfolk Island lie south of the equator, while Indonesia's province of West Papua extends into the southern hemisphere.
Much of Indonesia is in the southern hemisphere. Since East Timor became independent, and since it can be considered part of Asia (being that Indonesia is), it is also in the southern hemisphere (all of it). Part of the Maldives, which is off the coast of India in the Indian Ocean, is below the equator as well. That's all there is.
Indonesia and East Timor are the only two countries in Asia that have territory located in the southern hemisphere.
The northern hemisphere. It uses up most of the U.S. and Asia. It also contains every single part of Europe. The southern hemisphere only includes Australia and most of South America and Africa.
Africa: Africa straddles the equator, dividing the continent into northern and southern hemispheres. Asia: Asia spans both northern and southern hemispheres, with countries like Indonesia and Russia located in both. Europe: Europe also crosses the equator, placing countries like Spain and Italy in the southern hemisphere and countries like Norway and Sweden in the northern hemisphere.
Yes, during World War II, the Japanese Empire held territories in both the northern and southern hemispheres. In the northern hemisphere, Japan occupied territories like parts of China, Korea, and the Soviet Union. In the southern hemisphere, Japan controlled territories like parts of Southeast Asia, including the Philippines and the Dutch East Indies.

Asia is located mostly in the northern hemisphere, with some parts crossing into the southern hemisphere around the equator. The bulk of Asia's landmass and population is in the northern hemisphere.
In the northern hemisphere there are North America, Europe, and Asia. In the Southern Hemisphere there are Australia, and Antarctica. Africa and South America have the equator passing through them.
Asia is entirely in the Eastern Hemisphere and spans the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Asia is in two hemispheres. The vast majority of the continent is in the Northern hemisphere, but a small portion of it is in the Southern hemisphere.
Asia is mostly in the northern hemisphere. A small portion of Asia is in the southern hemisphere, so you could say it is both.
The continents of Australia and Antarctica are entirely in the southern hemisphere. Most of South America and about half of Africa is in the southern hemisphere as well. Additionally, parts of Indonesia are in the southern hemisphere, meaning that, technically, Asia is partly in the southern hemisphere too. However, the percentage of Asia that's in the southern hemisphere is small (roughly 3%) compared to the percentage of Asia that's in the northern hemisphere.
Africa: The equator runs through the continent, dividing it into a northern and southern hemisphere. Asia: The equator also crosses Asia, placing parts of the continent in both hemispheres. South America: Countries like Brazil and Colombia straddle the equator, making South America another continent with territories in both hemispheres.
North America and Europe are the only two continents not in the Southern Hemisphere. Asia is only slightly in the Southern Hemisphere.
