Aliquid posted:the gently caress is up with the upper appalachians, central ohio and northern new england? Based on the map it counts Protestants as one unit. My guess, probably lots of Catholics since they're about a quarter of the population. Reposting for new page:

A bunch of Eurostat maps. Belgium does so much worse than all it's North-Western European neighbours. A whole lot more here: https://www.theguardian.com/cities/gallery/2016/sep/15/happy-city-eu-report-data-eurostat-urban-europe-in-pictures

They seem to be doing the islands separately. On the paper you can clearly see the stencils for Sumatra, Borneo, and The Philippine Blob.

I think JosefStalinator was talking more about the arbitrary ranges for the 4 colors, like <64, 64-<75, 75-<81, >81, where the distance between markers isn't even consistent. I assume they have the same number of cities in each division, or something like that, but can't be arsed to count.

How anyone outside of Switzerland can be satisfied with their public transport system is beyond me. For real, though, those are some cool maps. Thanks for sharing. I found this one particularly interesting: Paris, city of love, city of mistrust.

I'm surprised how many people in the Balkans are pleased with their public transport, I found it was a very car-centric kind of area.

A Buttery Pastry posted:A map of how countries are usually subdivided when you discuss regional differences? So Germany is both divided into East/West Germany, and southern/northern Germany, depending on the discussion, so it's divided along cardinal directions. Ukraine on the other hand is divided along an east-west axis, so it goes in that group, Italy north-south, while Indonesia looks to be divided more according to islands/island groups than compass directions. I'm guessing radial is supposed to be like cardinal, expect with more subdivisions, like south-west or whatever. Though in that case the US really should be green too, shouldn't it? The US is weird because it's North, South, and West. (and Texas)

Radial probably means distance from some nexus, like the capital.

Maybe their service comes less often, but they don't have to sell a kidney each time they want to take a 2 hour train ride. Also those maps are just awful designs. What is the point of having 10 insets when the only one that ever has information is Malta? Are there any maps where Lichtenstein etc actually have data? And why did they pick these ten? Why are Reunion and Mayotte there but not New Caledonia? Why did they leave out Greenland from the inset? Also it's kind of weird that Turkey, Albania, Serbia, Macedonia, and Montenegro have data. What framework agreement is it under that includes these countries? They're not EEA.

Madeira, Açores and the Canarias are all integral parts of their countries, but don't fit unless you include substantial amounts of empty ocean. All the French ones are likewise part of Metropolitan France, New Caledonia is not. Greenland is also an OCT of Denmark, and not actually in the EU. quote:Also it's kind of weird that Turkey, Albania, Serbia, Macedonia, and Montenegro have data.

Baron Corbyn posted:I'm more interested in Poland viewing Germany as the most and least trustworthy country. And lol at British people voting ourselves as least arrogant. My logical mind runs crazy reading that grid. Theres a lot of other data you can infer. Of the type "You believe you are the most <X>, but your friends believe you are the less <X>, so you are <Y>", or "You believe to be <Y>, but nobody else believe you are <Y>, so you are <X>". Many of the <X> <Y> <Z> variables seems to be based on distance. Specially with UK. While these same variables seems independent of distance when we are talking about Germany.

France voted themselves both the most and least arrogant as well as the most compassionate, so I think that at least works out.

If you run those numbers through the very scientific method of granting +1 points for winning a positive trait, +2 if you didn't vote for yourself, and -1/-2 for negative traits, you can come up with a rank for the countries in question. Trustworthiness Germany: +1 Greece: -2 Greece: -2 Italy: -1 Arrogance Germany: -2 Spain: +1 Compassion Germany: -2 For a final score of: Spain: +1 Italy: -1 Germany: -3 Greece: -4 Countries with no points then get ranked according to how often they agreed with the rest, giving us a final ranking like this: 1. Spain 2. Czech Rep 3. Poland 4. France 5. Britain 6. Italy 7. Germany 8. Greece

A Buttery Pastry posted:Arrogance Spanish people love to complain about Spain. If you heard a spanish person talk about spain, you will believe everything is wrong about spain. When the reality is that spain is a modern boring normal mediocre country with nothing special. Is *not* that spanish are humble, like at all. Is more like spanish people love to complain about this poo poo in particular. That don't make them humble, that make them whiners. Because of this, you should probably make that a negative trait and turn that into Spain: -1.

A Buttery Pastry posted:They got -2 for voting themselves the most trustworthy, without anyone else voting for them. Technically everyone should get some negative points for the least arrogant/most compassionate category, but that wouldn't affect the rankings, though it'd make Spain look better. I mean greece gets listed twice.

In Croatia at least, inside Zagreb itself the public transit is quite good. Out in the rural areas it is very car-centric, but that's true almost everywhere.
