I’m guessing this makes Europe actually quite weak. Not only are these countries small individually, but the lack of a Europe-centric identity means the EU can be fractured easily with the right propaganda and political manipulation. This makes it easy for a country like the US or China to isolate an individual country or region of Europe and take it for itself militarily.
I wouldn’t have that expectation if I were you. Based on how both our comments got downvoted I suspect the beautiful Lemmings on here still live with a “no! I don’t accept, we’re better than this”
Yet once you go to those (especially orange) areas and you see how flamingly openly full racist and white nationalist those people have become in the last 10 20 years, it becomes harder to think of a culturally aligned Europe.
People forget this post WWII near 90 year on continuous peace time was extraordinarily exceptional and not how Europe typically fares through a century.

Lmao, like strong nationalism isn’t being used to drive division
@freeman@sh.itjust.works, if you’re gonna downvote me, at least explain how I’m wrong.
