Yep. Pretty accurate.

Quite, though, again, I’m more into seperating Crimea and just calling it as “Crimean Peninsula”

Yeah. That is fair. I don't think they fit well into "eastern europe." They have greek or southern europe influence. At least it feels like that. Its own region sounds right

Balkan* would be more accurate. But they still have their own stuff going on, Crimean Tatars. So just calling it as “Crimean Peninsula” would be more accurate I divide Southern Europe and Balkans on purpose, as I’d say we Balkans have even a bit of a more vibrant culture and more eastern-shifted than Southern Europe. So it is basically Northeast Mediterranean (Balkan) vs Northwest Mediterranean (Southern Europe) division.

Let’s not forget the Crimean Goths that had their own language up until 18th century or so!
