Habe kürzlich eine Umfrage durchgeführt r/SampleSize auf die großen Regionen Europas, da diese hier auf reddit häufig Anlass für Diskussionen sind. Dies sind die vorläufigen Ergebnisse nach etwas über 60 Antworten.
Die Umfrage ermöglichte es den Befragten, mehrere Regionen für jedes Land auszuwählen, wenn sie es für passend hielten.
Diese Stichprobengröße ist natürlich immer noch recht gering. Wenn Sie also selbst an der Umfrage teilnehmen möchten: https://forms.gle/zJurFZAQ8JMaFtQH8
Ich würde gerne mehr Antworten von Leuten sehen, die sich mit Geographie befassen!
Dies ist zunächst eine Aufschlüsselung der fünf großen Grundkategorien. Die Umfrage umfasst viele andere, detailliertere Kategorien (wie Balkan, Skandinavien, Baltikum usw.), die ich bei Interesse gerne weiterverfolgen würde. Ich habe jedoch noch nicht genügend Antworten erhalten, um einen repräsentativen Eindruck zu vermitteln.
Wichtige Dinge zu beachten:
Die erste Karte verwendet die gesamt wählt und weist jedem Land die Region zu, die die meisten Stimmen erhalten hat, während die Kreisdiagramme die Stimmenverteilungen für jedes Land zeigen. Ich denke, das zeigt sehr gut, warum hier auf reddit oft so viel über diese Regionen diskutiert wird. Beispielsweise ist Deutschland stark zwischen Mittel- und Westeuropa gespalten, oder der Balkan ist zwischen Süd- und Osteuropa gespalten.
Für die Choroplethenkarten: I normalisiert über die am häufigsten beantwortete Antwort für jede Region. 100 % bedeutet also nicht, dass 100 % der Befragten dieses Land ausgewählt haben, sondern dass dieses Land in dieser bestimmten Region am häufigsten ausgewählt wurde. (Obwohl es die meiste Zeit fast 100 % war)

Whoa Europe’s like a giant pizza. So many slices but everyone argues about the toppings
This is why you never ask the public for their opinion.
This is stupid. The terms overlap.
Most of northern Europe is in western Europe. Finland is arguable if it’s east or west. I say east.
Central Europe spans west, south and east Europe.
„Like Germany being very split between central and western europe“
Because it’s both. At least the southern part of Germany is absolutely central Europe. And you can’t argue that Germany isn’t a Western European country.
Turkey Southern Europe? Worse, Eastern Europe? LMAO.
The problem with this kind of categorization is that it implies that these regions are mutually exclusive. I think any reasonable person would consider Spain to be both Western Europe and Southern Europe.
What is the third color in Portugal? Its too low resolution for me to see.
Portugal is western but we’re more southern. Our cousins are the Spanish and Italians, not the English and French. I don’t normally acknowledge the existence of a central Europe. I always see Europe in terms of east/west or north/south.
Portugal comes into red zone stupid
Will you do a global version? Interested to see how people see world regions.
Interesting with the piecharts!
Super cool idea
If Macedonia is southern europe then Bulgaria, Albania, and most of the balkans should be too
This is really cool
Why the Baltics are eastern?
It’s interesting that even though Turkey is marked as “not Europe” most people actually put it in one of the European categories. They just couldn’t agree which one.
It is good to see the responses be posted on here, even if they dont realky make sence but that just is because europe cant properly be divided based on artifical borders.
turkish-georgian border left the chat
Damn who put Poland in Western Europe. It’s the most eastoid country ever
Portugal, the only place that can be in southern, western and eastern europe at the same time
Why would anyone designate Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania as Eastern European? It’s quite evident that such people know jack shit about them and are mentally stuck in the Cold War…
Could you mix the colors from the survey so that you can see a gradient of colors?
montenegro, albania and bosnia and herzegovina should really be southern if croatia and macedonia are
Holy fuck this topic is sooo overdiscussed. People just don’t realize Europe can be split up geographically and politically. Some country can be be politically eastern while geographically central, etc etc.
Surprised no one voted Portugal as Eastern Europe trying to be funny.
Interesting how Eastern Europe still seems to be very much based on cold war alignments. Hence there’s a pretty sharp divide, and Greece is not included.
Western Europe doesn’t seem quite so strongly influenced.
I think Southern Europe is slightly influenced by holiday destination popularity.
I like how you can tell that people got confused on east and west lmao
I expected Hungary to be central tbh
also I feel like a Balkan category might have been in order
otherwise this is amazing
Portugal is Eastern Europe and no one can change my mind on that
Very difficult to categorise Croatia.
knee-deep in your survey, takes time and concentration, still fun enough to continue tomorrow
How does Turkey have more votes for Central Europe than Portugal does for Eastern Europe? The „Portugal is Eastern Europe“ joke is absolutely everywhere, I would’ve expected it to even be voted into that category, unless the survey prohibited obvious joke answers – but it seems it hasn’t.
Croatia southern Europe but Montenegro , Albania and Serbia to the south are Eastern Europe ? Laughable
Surprised Western Europe and not southern Europe is most popular option for Portugal while southern Europe and not Eastern Europe is most popular option for Croatia and Macedonia
So Europeans know the cardinal directions. Ok. Can we move on?
Who the fuck would call France, Belgium and the Netherlands „central“ Europe lmao
Denmark isn’t western Europe, but Portugal is? Hmm.
whenever people classify Croatia as Eastern Europe it feels mildly xenophobic
