Throughout v. through



Throughout is not a fancy way of saying through. It means everywhere, in every place.
If you travel throughout Europe, you go to all  or most of the countries and major cities.


If you travel through it, you enter from  Russia and come out in Spain (or you travel from Italy to Norway,  depending on the throught-route you choose).

Reserve throughout (or maybe just stop using it?) for when you mean: Incessantly and constantly at every point in a process/work/paper/story/place.
