A Comparison of Climates in European and American States

The European Union and the United States take up large swaths of geography but at the same time are broken down into states that allow for differences within the superstates to be examined further.  Here, the climates that exist in these two entities are broken down by state.  By far the most abundant climates in both entities are the continental and the temperate as classified by the most widely used climate classification system, the Köppen Climate Classification.
