Europe is a vibe based concept, a place can be European or not depending on the vibes. Even the east west central etc. are completely vibe based. Portugal for example is Eastern European country, meanwhile Romania is central according to some textbooks.
replyYeah, Romania being central Europe - impossible nonsense. Because Czech Republic is in central Europe!
replyPortugal is not Eastern European and it would be incredibly rare for Europeans to identify it as such. Have you been to Europe in your life?
replyIt's mostly a meme https://old.reddit.com/r/PortugalIsEastEurope/
replyThey're using "Europe" as political shorthand for Western Europe

replyYeah, just like Toronto is American soil
replyKourou as well, although maybe a different definition of European.
replyWould maybe call it European territory but not soil. But yeah, as you say it's how you define it.
