10 Biggest European Countries by Area

Woah the quizmaster replied!!

Top 10s badge suggestion?

The Ural and Caucasus mountains and the Caspian sea are usually used as borders between Europe and Asia, and though most of Russian land is East of the Ural, its capital and most of its population stand in its European part.

Europe and Asia are artificial constructs anyway, none of them fit the definition of a continent.

Yes, It is largest nation in South America.

I have to agree with @AnkitMohan here, why is this website so US-biased, half of the featured quizzes are about United States, and even for those that have nothing to do USA, Quizmaster would comment something totally unrelatable

Half of the featured quizzes are about the U.S. because those quizzes happen to be taken just as much by people as the other country quizzes.

I'm from Europe and I don't care whether there are more quizzes on the US, Europe or any other area of the world as long as there are many of them and something for everyone. And there is! I just did a quiz on the 100 most populous cities in Germany and learned that a place called "Marl" is one of them, which I had never heard of before - speaking of obscure topics! So as long as the Quizmaster doesn't start deleting niche topic quizzes, as long as they meet quality standards of course, I really see no problem here.

but how many Rhode Islands? That unit is commonly used as well.

Texas is about 1,577,083 Vatican Cities.

The Australian state of Western Australia is 4.3 times the size of Ukraine and 3.8 times the size of Texas. It is equivalent to a 127.32 Wales', 841.48 Rhode Islands, and 6,012,761.36 Vatican City's. It also has a population density of a mere 1.02 persons per square kilometre, making it less than Mongolia as the least densely populated country, at 1.97 persons per square kilometre. If it was a country it would be the 10th largest in the world, just after Kazakhstan in 9th and knocking Algeria down to 11th.

If Earth was the size of Mercury, Vatican City would only be five soccer fields big

1 km² per persoon sounds lovely! Far enough you cant hear others, but close enough to reach someone.

I think a bigger part is not refusing to accept it, but just not knowing it, or even have been taught in school that it didnt belong to europe.

I think peoples eagerness on this site to get points is bigger than their stubbornness in refusing to typer certain answers. Though it might be close ;)

You said that Greenland wasn't included as part of Denmark because it isn't in Europe. Fair enough. But then you should count Svalbard and Bear Island (and possibly Jan Mayen) as part of the area of Norway because they ARE in Europe.

Then surely Canada would plummet down the list, given how much of its land comprises territories rather than provinces? /s 😜

If the term 'continent' is vague and up to wildly different interpretations, 'subcontinent' is even more so. The Indian Subcontinent is the only widely recognised subcontinent, though the term South Asia is usually preferred by international organisations, so as not to offend the likes of Pakistan. India gains that status largely because it is a large landmass, with a clear geographic boundary (the Himalayas) and occupies its own tectonic plate. Italy is mostly on the Eurasian Plate, though some is on the Adriatic or Apulian Plate and some is on the African Plate. The Alps do mark a clear boundary, so based on all this I could kinda see where the post was coming from (though didn't agree), until they pulled out landlocked. That just left me completely confused.
