    Not quite correct. Kazakhstan is in central Asia, not Europe

    Some of the country extends into it, making it transcontinental, like Turkey. Yeah, I should have included Turkey; good catch.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kazakhstan

    Kazakhstan,[d] officially the Republic of Kazakhstan,[e] is a landlocked country primarily in Central Asia, with a small portion in Eastern Europe.

      Oh, TIL that the small part by the Caspian Sea is far enough west to be considered Europe. Thanks for the correction.
