Portugal being a Balkan country yet again, I see

[-] schnurrito@discuss.tchncs.de 10 points 1 day ago

On the other link aggregation website, there is a subreddit "PORTUGALCYKABLYAT" full of maps where Portugal has more statistical similarities to Eastern European countries than ones geographically closer to it. I can't be bothered to check if we have a federated version of that yet.

Are there certain factors that lead to this?

Roughly it's probably: eastern Europe is poor because of its communist past, Portugal because of its remoteness and too hot climate?

Just wildly guessing, I don't have a scientific explanation.

*Eastern Europe is poor because of the criminal privatisation of public property and society in general AKA economic shock therapy.
