Finding out about their greatest territorial extent and how they eventually lost land over time, reaching their current borders. From Bulgaria's massive Balkan Empire to Austria's dominance under the Habsburgs; from France’s Napoleonic expansion to Poland-Lithuania’s one-million-square-kilometer reach. Some, like Albania and Hungary, lost large portions of their land through wars and treaties - such as the Treaty of Trianon, in Hungary's case. While others, like Andorra and Iceland, have always remained the same size. Not to mention the large examples of the old Swedish Empire, or Norway's medieval Kingdom that reached into northern Scotland.
