I've never heard of anyone referring to "Southeastern Europe". It's basically, Western, Eastern and sometimes Southern. Germany, Austria, the Scandinavian counties, Switzerland and potentially a couple of others would consider themselves Western. Spain and Italy are simultaneously Southern and Western

Some of the central European countries could be considered Eastern due to culture... but that's just me x

Looks pretty good but I feel like Latvia and the other 2 countries should probably also be eastern rather than northern. I think they align more close to Russia culturally.

Those aren’t considered European, and Australia was already colored. It’s next to Spain.

I can see why. The 3 Baltic states were part of USSR after all. The further south the Baltic state is, the less perceived as Northern Europe it is, although Northern Europe doesn't have to be Nordic. Estonia is probably the closest to being 'Nordic', and the fact that Estonian is in the same language family as Finnish. Latvian & Lithuanian are in their own separate language family, and its close relative is... Slavic. However Latvia has been traditionally Protestant due to its history link to the Hanseatic league, compared to Catholic Lithuania and Orthodox Russia. I put them in Northern Europe in respect with their geographical locations and their effort to de-Russia themselves.
