Map of Europe with Countries Labelled: Printable
A printable map of Europe with the country names written in. Use it as a reference sheet next to an atlas, as a study aid, or as the answer sheet for the blank map.
Europe is crowded with small countries, which makes it a good test of detail: many of them are only a few hundred kilometres across, and a handful (Monaco, San Marino, Vatican City, Liechtenstein, Andorra, Malta) are tiny. Names are printed inside the countries that can hold them. The 21 smaller ones carry a number on a short leader line and are listed under the map.

Questions
Why are some countries numbered instead of named?
Text would not fit inside very small countries and would cover their neighbours. Those countries get a short leader line and a number, and the key under the map says which is which.
Does it print on A4 and US Letter?
Yes. It is laid out to fit within the margins of both sizes at 100% scale. Both PDF versions are provided.
Which countries are included?
47 countries, including Russia and Turkey, which sit on the boundary between Europe and Asia and appear on both maps. Territories and disputed areas that are not in the country list are drawn as plain outlines without names.
Maps are drawn from Natural Earth (public domain) outline data and simplified for printing. Borders shown are simplified and some are disputed or changing; GeoKnow maps are learning aids, not authoritative boundary references, and showing a territory does not imply any position on its status.
