Percentage of each European country’s land that is actually in Europe.

France has a relatively large amount of land in South America - French Guiana - as well as the various islands.

For the 99%s, the UK has its tiny islands around the place, Spain has the Canaries and two cities on the Moroccan coast, Portugal is presumably the Azures. Guessing some Norwegian and Greek islands are in theory in Asia, so Italy is the hardest one to figure out.
