 Does anyone have a good source of polygon shapes which represent European

 I found a few sites, such as:

 https://www.sciencebase.gov/catalog/items?q=filter=tags%
 3DGeologic+province

 But it does not provide the political boundaries.

 I'm looking for the provinces which can be displayed at a site such as:
 http://www.meteoalarm.eu/
   (where clicking on the counties displays the provinces; those provinces
 are what is of interest).

 Any help/links would be great.

 Thanks!

Yet another is GADM (http://gadm.org) which is a spatial database of
Global Administrative Areas. You can obtain data per country or the
whole world.
