Trace the Coast of Europe with a Map

Thank you! I've seen maps that split Georgia between the continents but I believe it's just as correct to draw the line at the border with Russia.

The bottom bit of Zealand is seperated by a river entering Belgium, but I don't believe rivers should count as coastline.

Cheers! I do quite like that idea, although I cannot implement it now, as the borders are coloured in altogether, based on whether or not the answer is correct (rather than individually through their ID).

I'm not planning on including that thus far, both for simplicity's sake and also I'm not sure where to draw the line on what constitutes a coastline.

Go ahead!

You're very welcome!

Thank you! And I have to agree with you, I'm a big fan of GeoPhilia's Afro-Eurasia quiz :D

Russia is truly omnipresent.

Russia currently has control over the Crimean peninsula (as well as de facto control over parts of Eastern Ukraine). I am still not sure where Jetpunk gets their maps from, but the source seems to value depicting actual control over specific regions, rather than honouring sentiments (this goes for the Crimean situation as well as the border dispute in Kashmir, among other minor disputes). I agree with this, to the point in which I have drawn dotted lines to represent other territories such as Abkhazia or North Cyprus which are outside of the authority of the countries which the international community agrees as controlling said territory.

That being said, if you wish you can simply type 'Ukraine' three times to complete its coastline on the Black Sea. You are never forced to type 'Russia' in order to complete Crimea.

Of course! Anyone can do what they wish with this idea. I look forward to seeing what you come up with :)

Thank you! An honour coming from George Washington himself :)

Thanks to you too, your Afro-Eurasian quiz is what reignited interest in this quiz, too :)

Thank you once more GeoPhilia :)

Thank you!

I have added to the description. I want all of my quizzes to be as straighfowards as possible, so comments like this are very helpful to me. Thank you :)

Perhaps I will solve this with a caviat specifying the Caspian Sea is considered a lake here. I do agree that the Northeastern bit of Kazakhstan is European though I hope any other definition will be clear to people when the quiz stops at Russia (rather than Georgia, that is).

Thank you, and thank you! There are a lot of 'name the countries' quizzes on Jetpunk and I wanted to go for a different feel this time round :)

Thank you, I'm glad you think so :)

GeoPhilia has you covered :)

Gibraltar is already included, if that's what you mean.

'UK' has always been accepted for Gibraltar.

Thank you!

I'm glad you think so! It can take a moment to get going on these sorts of quizzes, so I hope I've given enough time for people to find their bearings.

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it.

All country shapes have been taken from the (previous) standard Jetpunk map of Europe, which in turn is taken from NaturalEarth.

Gibraltar under control of the United Kingdom (and therefore it is also a type-in). I believe that all territories should be included by default on a quiz like this, unless otherwise specified, as they are part of the overall coastline.

As always, thank you JWatson!

Thanks, glad you think so :D

Well, it is the same as both the Europe map and the World map here on Jetpunk. I should add that my decision not to go and edit the map is not influenced by personal motives or feelings.

Commonwealth English.

Thank you for the kind words. I wanted a quiz that was both accessible yet more than simply 'name the countries on the map'. I hope I found that middle ground!

Thank you, I am happy to hear that! And there is no need to nominate because it is already featured :)

It is occupied by Russia at the moment. The best maps depict what the situation is, not what the map creator thinks it should be.

Which ones? The only area I am deliberately avoiding is the Vistula Spit area.

I'm not here to make moral decisions about who should have what.

How can you not believe it? International recognition is never the primary factor at play on Jetpunk, otherwise Palestine would be considered a country on a majority of the quizzes and Taiwan excluded.
