Interestingly, the spanish highest point pictured there is actually nowhere to be seen on this map, as it’s located in the Canary islands, further to the south.
Likewise for Portugal. Its highest point is Pico, in the Azores archipelago.
Now ask France and Italy which side it is

What is that 5165m mountain? I’ve always been told that the Mont-Blanc was the highest mountain of Europe and now I’m confused.
EDIT: Ararat mount in East Turkey. Considered an Asian mountain on Wikipedia.
Probably something in the Caucasus, or at least in Asian Turkey
What’s going on in Belarus?
Nothing good.
🤣
😭
Now people get to argue about which parts of Turkey and Russia are in Europe. Kaliningrad is Asia but “Europe” borders Iran.
said 5167(?) is mount Ararat and it’s clearly not in Europe
but!
when the Europe/Asia separation is based on identity politics… (cough: religion) and Georgia, Armenia or Cyprus is included in Europe but not Turkey, there’s no need to argue 🤷
Ararat’s Armenian history shouldn’t be ignored either
The highest point in Europe is actually in Asia, interesting…
