$begingroup$


I found that the list "Europe countries" encloses "Russia" and "Moldova". This is not correct!
Any hint?

    What exactly is incorrect? Moldova is a European country by every definition I'm aware of, and Russia spans both Europe and Asia. It could easily fit into either list or both.

    Russia is considered a transcontinental country in both Eastern Europe and Northern Asia. The vast majority of its population (78%) lives in European Russia. Moldova is certainly in Europe as well, and it hopes to join the EU in the future.

    Honestly, I'd be more concerned with the inclusion of Svalbard, Jersey, Isle of Man, Gibraltar, Guernsey, and the Faroe Islands on the list as "countries".

You may be looking for EntityClass["Country", "EuropeanUnion"] instead.



Otherwise, if you really want to not include Russia and Moldova:



countries = Complement[
Entity["GeographicRegion", "Europe"][
EntityProperty["GeographicRegion", "Countries"]], {Entity["Country",
"Russia"], Entity["Country", "Moldova"]}]


Now you can still do aggregate computation using EntityGroup, such as



EntityValue[EntityGroup@countries, "Population"]


without including Russia or Moldova. (Alternatively, Total@EntityValue[countries, "Population"] will work too.)



You can also do geographic computation:



GeoGraphics[Polygon@countries]



enter image description here




As you can see, Moldova and Russia are not included.
