Note. The number for Russia is for the entire country, not just the European part.

Good idea but I wonder if you've allowed too much time? I scored 100% even though I didn't know much about it by guessing quite rapidly. Omit the obvious ones like the Vatican or Iceland and you can get through most of Europe in the time allotted.

I don't think a single tree counts as a forest. Nor is Sealand a country.

Joke aside, that's why I still tried the Vatican, because they have some gardens, and if even just four or five trees in those gardens are close enough together, that could already be a few percentage of the whole area!

Considering the size of those gardens, if they counted as forest, the Vatican would probably make the list. But they aren't a forest.

This quiz very quickly turned into a test of how fast I could type every country in Europe.

I think I actually guessed every single country in Europe except a few of the micronations. Generous time limit, rendering my 5 points pretty meaningless.

There may be different criteria in different sources. The source in this quiz is FAO. What is your source for 80% forest?

I think Russia should be shaded grey and the answer provided by default, rather than just have that pinned comment.
