Eur(o)pe

Graphic representation of Europe. The frame is circular, each country is depicted as a series of circles of decreasing size, tightly packed together. The title is: eur(o)pe. Credits at the bottom read: Encircled Incircles / by-tlohde / made with Natural Earth — Eur(o)pe: Where each country is comprised of a series of successive incircles.

tools	python: `geopandas`, `matplotlib`, `shapely`
data	Natural Earth
font	DejaVu Sans Mono
comments	To find the point furthest from an edge, used a method similar to that of Garcia-Castellanos & Lombardo (2008). This took a while to run. Terrible choice of font for 'eur(o)pe, as the the 'o' isn't remotely circular. Ugh.
