Think you're nearly there, Kazakhstan seems to be regarded as a European state and shouldn't be included on this line.

I read somewhere the other day (was it the contents page of my not-yet-started When Saturday Comes?) about 2 blokes attending a game in a different UEFA country each season and how far through the 53 they were, which made me think "eh?" and work out everything except the Faeroes before researching.
