I wouldn’t think so. I was referencing the line in the article which said that an independent Greenland would be the poorest country in Europe. I would not have considered them in any way a part of Europe without the legalistic Denmark connection.

The original article calls them the poorest in Europe with San Marino - but that was a wrong statement -- their budget is $2.2 billion with a population of just 55,000 - so GDP per capita is $40K per person. That's the same level as Israel - a country with a smaller population has a lower GDP

ditto for San Marino which has a GDP of $1.9 billion but a population of 33,562

Europe is really a human construct geographically, but if one was to talk about culturally then Armenia and Georgia and Israel (all part of Asia geographically) should be included as should Greenland.
