I've assigned numbers to several European nations as shown below. My question is: what's my methodology in choosing these numbers? What would the numbers for Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania be?

(Note: I may have made a mistake, in which case I am sorry.)

Portugal: 90

Spain: 90

United Kingdom: 32

The Netherlands: 35

Norway: 105

Sweden: 45

Belarus: 95

Bulgaria: 87

Armenia: 117

Russia: 127

I will periodically release hints with more countries and numbers.

Hint 1

Italy: 90.

The answer is probably

Estonia - 77 (initial wrong answer: 67), Latvia - 77, Lithuania - 85

That's because

This number of a country is the largest "main" European road number (numbered Exx (xx=01 to 99) or E1xx (xx=01 to 29)) which runs through that country.

I've figured it

just being a fan of Euro Truck Simulator 2 game, and so memorising some E-road numbers which run through certain countries.
