#4I really dislike this kind of visualization since it makes regions with total different population densities appear on the same level. besides, the definition of who is actually unemployed varies greatly throughout Europe since governments have been hacking such statuses to make figures look better than they are.

Many, many people work under the table, very often pretending that they're still out of work to keep getting the unemployment check.

German perspective: Wow, what a dramatic shift in Eastern Germany! Maybe it is just a general upwards trend in Germany with little room for improvement in Southern Germany, but it might also be the beginning of the end of Eastern Germany's under performance. I will certainly investigate further.

#8I wonder how many plausible alternative captions we can come up with for this map? A few takes:
* Corruption level (blue is less)
* Income per capita (blue is more)
* Education level (blue is better)
* Price of a beer (blue is more)
* etc

It shows unemployment RATES, so population density does not matter.
