Re: European Regions
Hello,
I suppose you don't mean things like high- and lowlands ... I personally would divide Europe into the usual parts
- Western (Great Britain, Ireland, France, Monaco, the Benelux countries (Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg))
- Northern (Scandinavia (Norway, Sweden, Finland), Denmark, Iceland)
- Central (Germany, the Alpine countries (Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Austria, Slovenia), and the former Eastern block countries evolving from Austria-Hungary (Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Hungary))
- Eastern (former Soviet Union countries that are in Europe except for the Baltic states (the European part of Russia, Moldova, Ukraine, Belarus))
- Southern (Apennine peninsula (Italy, San Marino, Vatican), Pyrenean peninsula (Spain, Portugal, Andorra), Malta)
- Southeastern (Balkan peninsula (Croatia, Bosnia, Serbia and Montenegro, Romania, Albania, Bulgaria, Macedonia, Greece, and a tiny bit of Turkey), Cyprus)
- Northeastern (the Baltic countries (Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania))
I don't think there absolutely has to be a region to classify more than one country into. France is merely in Western Europe, I should say. One could endeavour a bit and call it an 'Atlantic-bordering' country if there was need. Also, there isn't one single way of classification; people tend to disagree on such issues, especially when dealing with more-than-just-geographic definitions. What do you need this for?
