Pierre Barberis says
You made amajor mistake on the map showing the highest altitude summit per European country.
Indeed since 1945/46 the summit of the Mont Blanc is totally French, in spite of discussions taking place during the last 80 years with Italy, just to enjoy a free stay and some free meals for governments officials.
