I'm guessing that coastal moderation of temperatures kept Lithuania warm enough to miss the list.

Lithuania is far enough south that with coastal moderation, it stays higher than Belarus, which sits inland. Even though it is farther south, it has no coast to warm it.

Agreed. My mind immediately went to "furthest north", so I got 8 out of 10 very quickly. Then after trying a several more incorrect answers, "high elevation" occurred to me, and I got the last 2.

Why wouldn’t you Spain and Malta are known for being some of the coldest countries in Europe 🥶 and Greece as well I remember the amazing snowstorms every winter and the whole sea around them freezes 🤩

I am learning Swedish. My all time favourite country I want to visit is Sweden. Some of my favourite music is from Sweden.

I forget Sweden and get Lichtenstein first time.

Arguably, the average temperature refers to the entire country, not just the European part. If that distinction could be made, i.e. average temperature for just European Russia, it might place differently on the list.
