I've always been against the label Europe aside from being a geographic label. I mean grouping Scots and Norwegians with Greeks and Albanians? Spaniards with Lithuanians? It's glossing over the many differences that exist.

well, I've never been to Spain but I suspect that Lithuanians would find biggger similarities with them than f.ex. North Africans, Midddle Easterners, etc. If there are transitive zones it does not mean that European culture, genes etc. does not exist.
