It is mostly countries with viking influence that have it, noteably England, and therefore a waterered down version of the concept was inherited by other anglosaxon countries like New Zealand, Australia etc. Austria is much stricter on access on private land, especially production forests than the Nordics. The latin countries in Europe do not have freedom to roam on uncultivated private land. In Italy it is even stranger: hikers cannot pass, but if you carry a rifle for hunting you are allowed to roam uncultivated private land. Luckily there are a lot of National Parks that are managed differently.
