From what I can tell, craigslist is not really a player outside of the US. Just about every country seems you have its own 'craigslist'.

While it's true that most countries have their homegrown version by now, I've used Craigslist myself in other countries, and it does have enough of a presence that it's actually maintained in over 50 countries which is no small feat.
Well, they are present in Denmark. I only managed to find a single item - an expensive apartment.

In Denmark the place to go is dba.dk or facebook marketplace.

Checking the portugese version - its 3 items in Lisbon.

I just checked the Croatian version and it has a total of 5 things listed for sale and 3 jobs.
