Repost from Reddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/dataisbeautiful/comments/8qt94a/endianess_of_date_and_address_formats_in_europe/
On the reddit comments some user wrote the address format for Russia is wrong on this map, they use big-endian as well.
Also Hungary is the only country in Europe where we use big endianness in names, aka Eastern name order: surname first, firstname second.
mm/dd/yyyy is the dumbest date format
As an American, I agree. I use yyyy/mm/dd for anything I have full control over, especially for file names. I like my dated files to order themselves by date. Nothing else really makes sense in that context, but it doesn’t stop people from trying.
Eh, I like it. Haven’t had any complaints using it.
