What Google Autocomplete Thinks Of European Countries

The following map infographic shows what Google autocomplete thinks of each country in Europe. Autocomplete is when you type a search query into Google and you are shown suggestions which may be relevant to your search based on search history surrounding that query by other people using Google. This applies to most search engines like Yahoo and Bing etc. We at DrFelix decided to use Google for this map infographic to find out what people think of all European countries since it is the biggest search engine in the World.

Full Methodlogy

The map was compiled using the Google autocomplete functionality. We began with creating a list of all the countries in Europe. We then used Google to carry out a search query for each country e.g. "Germany is" and collated all the results shown by autocomplete. The next step was to simply remove all the unwanted results and filter out the most suitable result for our inforgraphic map. This step was repeated for all countries until we collated a final version and created out map infographic based on this unique research. For some countries the autocomplete did not provide satisfactory results so we carried out further research for the most appropriate terms to complete out map. The countries this extra step applies to are Azerbaijan, Azerbaijan, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Kazakhstan, Latvia, Lithuania and Montenegro. This project also draws inspiration from a similar map created for the USA by Matt Shirley of FlipCollective which you can see here. Here is an example of what a typical search query looked like:
