What do you consider to be Western Europe?

[Hess]

depends on which type of system you use. In some systems, the is no central Europe, but just North, West, East, South. In others, it's west, Central, East.

Brits. islands ,Spain and Portugal
Italy lies eastern even the same as greek does.

Although Italy does lies towards Southeastern..... ....I think it should be considered just simply as South Europe (+ culturally most of Italy overlaps with SouthEast France better than Balkans).
