I'd have to do some queries on the stats databases here but I think that most of the EU countries would be ccTLD/gTLD with .eu running between .net and .com. However the problem for .eu is that most of those registrations are brand protection registrations. They redirect to the registrant's main ccTLD or .com website or are left unused. NL would definitely be ccTLD positive as .nl ccTLD is very strong (over 3 million .nl domains registered). Italy - not sure. The problem is figuring out what is the average usage for .eu ccTLD.

Perhaps the easiest way would be to provide a breakdown of gTLD/TLD usage by country, the number of identified .eu domains on the hosters in the countries, and the Eurid figure for domains registered for the countries.
