At first glance, seems most of those are closer to the Equator than Western Europe. The exceptions I see are Russia and Kazakhstan.

Most countries are closer to the equator than European countries.

And Spain is on the same latitude as Turkmenistan.

[frollogaston]

Yeah, which is why DST matters more in Europe. Spain might not need it though.

British Columbia is far from the equator and just removed DST (permanent summer time).
