This makes me wonder how does the graph diagram wind up looking like. Most nodes seem to end in a Germany-Switzerland-France loop

    And then there's the edge case of England going literally outside of the continent, with Australia

    Right, I keep forgetting Russia is still partly in Europe

    Some countries like Turkey are part of both Europe and Asia on technicalities. They straddle the border so they get to be part of both.

    Then there's Russia, where the population is mostly in Europe, but the land is mostly in Asia.

    The European part of Turkiye is still about twelve million people as well, it's not like Russia but it is still a pretty substantial number of people. It'd be the 12th-most populous country in Europe if it was independent

    Oddly enough, so is Kazakhstan! By most definitions of the Asia-Europe border, Kazakhstan has a chunk on the European side that's actually still bigger than most European countries
