Basically, they needed to use a gradient.
Calling Greece „Western Europe“ is kinda crazy ngl
How the fuck is Greece Western Europe?
Bosnia has access to the sea
Finland and Iceland is not Scandinavia. It should be The Nordics with this definition.
Region: Slovenia lmao
That’s not Scandinavia, those are the Nordics. Scandinavia refers to Denmark, Norway and Sweden.
Well that’s just random without any logic
Imbecile ignorance.
it’s like they attributed categories just to piss us off 😆
Baltics where?
Wouldn’t want them guide me through Europe’s region classification or other things.
portugal isn’t on the mediterranean at any point, so i feel it should just be yellow, surely?
this is so random lmao
ok are those culturall or geographical because if cultural then montenegro should be togheder with serbia and kosovo with albania, if geographical then how is greece western? (culturally also doesn’t make sense cause greece was foundation for both eastern and western europe)
This is dumb and needlessly overcomplicated
More than half of Europe is eastern , bit strange .
Since there are no Nordics on the map and Finland is confirmed Scandinavian once and for all, can Baltics claim the title of Nordics? (Finland should be let into Nordics if they teach their Estonian brethren the joys of ice hockey.)
Yeah no lol
Whichever team at Lonely Planet made this.
Make up your mind lmao.
France, UK, Belgium, Netherlands, Western Germany and Italy were considered Western Europe for their level of economic development plus Nato and EU membership after WW2. Spain and Portugal should also be considered Western Europe but they were late members to both Nato and EU due to their autocratic regimes. So definition of Western Europe was as much economic and political as its geographic.
Average day for a US publisher. Nothing to see here, ignore it, move on.
This is why people visit Portugal, expecting to float in the Med, and instead freeze their nuts off in the wild Atlantic.
It seems like lonely planet should align their maps with UN classification standards
Finland and Iceland is not part of Scandinavia.
Greece is western?
What a bullshit definition
WHY IS GREECE LABELED AS WESTERN EUROPEAN 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
This just feels like bending over backwards to keep Cold War era terminology alive.
Cries in baltic
As a Dane i mostly agree that’s how I see Europe…
If you want to have successful friends in Estonia, dont call us East-European.
What makes the Baltic states be together with Bosnia?
Why the need to bloody classify, especially giving such a contrived yet wrong result? Just put a map of Europe with country names and there you go. Twats.
There’s no reason to split the concept of Western Europe that way. They’re mixing geography with bits of political norms. We know where the Mediterranean is.
Turkey is in Asia.
It’s pretty unanimous that the Bosphorus in Istanbul is the border.
Finland is not a part of Scandinavia … you mean Nordics
I put my own spin on it https://www.reddit.com/r/MapPorn/s/YQyQ0vrH4T
Who cares
Calling Scandinavia a single region while splitting Central Europe into two different categories is wild.
If Mediterranean Europe and Scandinavia are „regions“, then the Balkans should be another region as well. I’m surprised it’s not on this map…
Türkiye (Turkey) should be in the Middle East and not it’s own classification.
This sub is just getting dumber by the fucking minute…
Finland in SCANDINAVIA?!
I could get the confusion with Iceland/Faroe having a language connected to the Scandinavians. Or well, they are Scandinavians genetically tbf. But ending up putting THREE extra countries in the subregion?
If this is the region they thought of, there’s already a cultural region called The Nordics with these exact six countries, lol. Just go with that, maybe.
how come slovenia gets most of them while the baltics are stuck just with eastern europe
