The way I see it, either you leave out Russia completely (which would mean also excluding the European part of Turkey), or you only count European Russia, you can't do a bit of both. With an area of almost 4 million squared km and a population of 113 million (from Wikipedia), Russia (European part) would be the answer to two more questions.

Also Cyprus is usually considered to be in Asia.

Fun quiz!

I will change it to include the European part of Russia. We're making an exception for Cyprus - it stays.

Thank you for the valuable feedback.

Two of your answers are not in Europe - Cyprus (only in Europe "politically", not Geographically - please reconsider) and the Canary Islands (same reason, Geographically in Africa). Also the quiz is still claiming that Germany has the largest population in Europe when it should be Russia (even just the European part).

I fixed your problems, thank you for commenting. Also, I'm not 100% sure what's the hottest location in Europe so I had to do Gibraltar. Let me know if that's incorrect or if you know the hottest location in Europe.

Dude. I'm talking about normal quiz takers. Not many know about mountain ranges, locations of countries, or rivers.
