So much politics going on in this map.

The eternal UK ๐Ÿค Portugal alliance and the awkward space it creates between them.

Spain and Poland are in the same timezones.

The weird corridor created by Belarus.

Ukraine is in a separate tz from Russia, I wonder when that was established

What the hell is going on with the light blue in the east?

such as tv programs

People do view TV Channels across timezone boundaries right now.

A lot of folk in the Netherlands and Belgium watch British TV and North America, Australia, Russia etc must have lots of TV channels with audiences spread across more than one timezone.

To say noting of migrant workers/families in various countries who largely shun the local TV channels in favour of satellite/internet TV from their home country. (Indeed the advent of internet TV is making the concept of TV schedules pretty obsolete anyhows)

How do they cope ?
