I’m not really sure what else to say about this Final: it seems self-explanatory, albeit particularly difficult, in my opinion. Kudos to anyone who can get around the map of Europe and have time to write them all down in 30 seconds.
In the aftermath of yesterday’s events, with all of the valid votes cast that still need to be counted, I am hopeful that the pre-emptions won’t be too widespread over the coming days and weeks.

- Full marks to Devin for getting all three countries down in order to claim victory.
