List of European Countries: Europe is a unique continent. It is not entirely surrounded by water and shares an overland border with Asia. Geographically, it occupies the northwestern part of the landmass known as Eurasia. It is bordered by the Arctic Ocean to the north, the Atlantic Ocean to the west, the Mediterranean Sea to the south, and the Black Sea to the southeast.

Currently, Europe has 51 independent states. Some countries, like Russia, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan, Georgia, and Turkey, are transcontinental, meaning they are located in both Europe and Asia. Additionally, Armenia and Cyprus are politically associated with Europe, even though they are geographically part of Western Asia. Below is the list of European countries along with their populations.
