DEPENDING on your source, Europe is made up of 44, 46 or 50 countries, the fact that no one seems to know exactly how many is quite alarming, but we hope that we have all learned not to trust the internet as an accurate source of information by now.
Because we like to do things properly we are going to run with the official numbers from the UN which places this figure at 44, but honestly we’ll be amazed if you can get over ten of these correct in our Europe Map Test.
From minnows Monaco to the big guns of Germany, spotting these countries from their outlines alone might not be as easy as you think.
Embark on a thrilling exploration of Europe’s political and geographical landscape with the only Europe Countries Quiz worth getting involved with.
This interactive quiz is your passport to discovering the unique characteristics of each European nation and proving to the world just how poor your geography really is.
