The diagram shows the 44 nations that occupy the continent of Europe. (The diagram excludes Russia, which occupies both Europe & Asia.) Every dot is a smaller nation, with a national population less than 500,000; the circles are nations each with more than half a million people. Those nations in the "NATO" circle, as of 2013, are members of the NATO military alliance. Those nations in the "euro" circle, as of 2013, use the euro as their primary currency.

There are currently 21 nations that are inside the NATO circle.
If exactly 50% of the total number of nations in Europe, 44, were in NATO, there would need to be 22 nations in NATO.
Since it's asking for MORE than 50% membership, there would need to be at least 23 nations in NATO.
Therefore, at least 2 more nations need to join NATO.
