10 Biggest European Countries by Area

Great quiz!

Easy yet great

Wow. So Texas is bigger than any non-disputed-as-being-in-Europe countries. (I always learned in school that Russia was in Asia, but I do understand why it's considered part of Europe, both here and elsewhere. And plus Russia's bigger than everything anyway, regardless of what continent it's part of). That's crazy.

ahem.......

Aren't we doing a european quiz

from where did texas and alaska come in your comments?

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.

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

Texas is about 1,577,083 Vatican Cities.

One Texas equals 221.6 Rhode Islands.

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.

Little too generous on the time i think. Probably 2 minutes max.

30 seconds should be plenty.

Average score of 10. LMAO Glad to help maintain the average.

I don't think I've ever seen such high scores. Average score of 10, with the most missed answers still gussed by 97% of test takers. I hope this become a trend of largest/smallest countries on each continent.

I think the longer you stay on JetPunk, the better you get at geography.

Finished with 1:35 left!

10/10 with 1:25 remaning

I am surprised Italy is at the bottom and also surprised Belarus is not on this list. Good quiz though

i was more suprised about romania tbh

f1or the frist 90 seconds I thought it said largest cities fgs

Reading the title as 10 Biggest European Cities, therefore getting zero right.

*Facepalm

Greenland is considered part of the continent of North America.

Very cool!!!!!!!!!!!

1:42 remaining, neat quiz

A higher percentage of people guessed Germany and France than they did Russia? Seriously?

Because some people refuse to accept the European part of Russia. Though the size should give it away. And what's quite interesting is that even though it's just the area on the European side it's still bigger than the other countries combined!

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 ;)

great quiz

The ten countries I guessed were all correct answers! :) 1:47 remaining

Meaning I didn't guess anything else.

Good quiz but given the average score is ten maybe you could consider shortening the time limit: 45 seconds?

The source listed gives Norway the size of 323,802 km2, but in the quiz it says 385,203. Where did you come up with the extra +50,000km2 ?

The area of some countries might have been defined a little bit after the quiz was done, and I think that the person who made the quiz just didn't feel like editing the quiz.

That was probably the Svalbard.

Italy is classified as a subcontinent, being recognized as one by many prestigious organizations, e.t. UN, NATO, AU. I guess it is possible to assume Italy being part of the larger continent, but its classification in the scientific world speaks volumes regarding to the economic independence of a land locked country of its sort.

wth are you talkin about? Italy is not land locked, it's a peninsula that's almost all coastline. and I never heard of anyone referring to it as a subcontinent, either.

I'd love some explanation of what was going on there.

Subcontinental landlocked country? Italy is repeated twice, so that's probably not a typo.

Are there any single-country subcontinents? Russia would be closest of course, but I can't find any reference to it or any part of it as a subcontinent. Maybe Central Asia could be described as a landlocked subcontinent?

The UN, NATO and African Union (?) don't recognise subcontinents. Who are the scientists? What are the volumes that are spoken?

Italy?! I'm confused and intrigued...

Finished quiz with 1:39 remaining. Please lower the time limit.

where is uk

suprised the scandanavian/nordic countries are bigger than belarus and romania on maps they look huge
