@golgaloth@writing.exchange I kinda like that there’s not even a blue dot over the Vatican (which is, after all, a EU country).

@js@mastodon.nl @golgaloth@writing.exchange No, I'm pretty sure the Vatican is not an EU country. It's not a party to the European Convention on Human Rights which is a requirement for EU membership. But EU membership is not relevant to these maps, anyway. On one they show a country, on the other they show a continent. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vatican_City#Non-party,_non-signatory_policy

@js@mastodon.nl @golgaloth@writing.exchange It is surrounded by the EU but it‘s definitely not a member.

@js@mastodon.nl If you look closely there are a couple of grey spots for "no data" The Vatican obviously didn't want to participate in this survey.
