What about France? Is it half way into Spain because its weighted towards French Guyana?
- sgjohnson 5y agoWhat about Reunion? Then it should be roughly in the middle of Africe.
- seszett 5y agoIf you weight it by the actual size of territories rather than just the extreme boundaries then the center is indeed in Spain, because the overseas regions are still rather small in comparison to the European part of France. If you use only the extreme boundaries then it gets a lot more interesting and I would say that the center is closer to the center of the Earth than to its surface.
- kenneth 5y agoThings probably change if you weigh by surface including the ocean EEZ, with French Polynesia being the most significant area of France at this point.
