I refer to a country which has confirmed history further back than any other European country, within its own, current territory, give or take some land.  It has a direct succession via language and culture into the modern era from the earliest confirmed history, though not necessarily continued independence.

Oh, and no countries proposed so far are correct.

Turkey is European, if not geographically than culturally.  The Turkish language is more similar to most European languages, including German and French, than it is to Arabic.

And, San Marino is the oldest country still in existence on the European continent, but I refer to a cultural group that makes up a country that has continuous succession further back than any other European country in the same land.

turkey is european geographically, im not sure, but actually splits in 2, let me check the world map.

i would say turkey is split, i think the european continent is split right across turkey. thats why it's so unstable. everything western of Urals Mountain Chain is europe geographically.

Turkey is actually wanting to come in EU. The population wants it, it's even against the possible islamic state.

found something in wikipedia saying that could be Georgia, but it says it's the oldest bones found. not culture :p.
