If you ignore the southern most province of the Netherlands (Limburg), the next highest point is only 110 meters. Beating all other numbers on the map. And the hill in Limburg that does set the height to 322, is the hill on which the German, Belgian, and Dutch borders meet.
Kinda funny how for both Spain and Portugal the images are not from the continental area they are superimposed on.
The images depict the highest mountains, which in both cases are not on the Iberian peninsula.
- Spain: Mulhacén (3482 m) vs. Pico del Teide, Teneriffa (3715 m)
- Portugal: Torre (1993 m) vs. Ponta do Pico, Pico (2351 m)
Do those count as Europe? I mean, technically the Netherlands has a mountain of 887 meters high, it’s just located in the Caribbean.
What happened to Belarus 😨
The highest point is Svyataya hara (345 m) which since 1958 is named differently, after the founder of NKVD. The picture seems to be from Wikipedia, but blurred the region depicting some monument.
However, as also the Elbrus in russia is blurred, it is made clear that both, Belarus and russia, politically are Asia.
Laughed at the censorship.
