eitherway austro hungary was nit sustainable in long term since they simply had too many peoples and cultures within their borders
The Austrians won a civil war and then came to an arrangement because of the empress being a Hungarophile
those sorts of nations dont last long
There is partial truth to "Germans control everything". Germany is one of the biggest if not the biggest exporter to other member countries so economically speaking Germany is de facto economic king. I'm might be mistaken because I'm not completely up to date with everything in this regard. Correct me if necessary.
Austria Hungary lasted until forcibly broken apart
it was literaly breaking apart during ww1
lmoa
@Korin Dickman Germany has the least members of parliament per capita, one comissioner just as even coutnries that are barely even countries like Luxembourg or Malta and we're only the most important nation since reunification
all minorities within AH wanted their own nation states except those shitty slovenians and croats whom were massive wheraboos
France basically set policy for most of the time
Ok I see.
Not to mention barely anything gets passed in the EU because of unanimity
Only stupid stuff like regulations on the curvature of bananas (which have theri reason but why not have real protectionism instead ffs)
i woldnt exactly say that it was wignats whom always wanted a european union. it is rather the french,italians and gers who were obsessed about utopian ideals of recreating the roman empire.
It's been a thing since WW1 at the very least
Mostly in Austria for some reason
the european unio was always about germanic and italic political and economic hegemony over europe
Not really
Germany had plans for central Europe
The idea was present way before ww1 (mentioned Otton III).
Almost realized also
if EU faces a powerfull outside enemy and it starts loosing said war it will cruble and implode like AH did
Anyway the point is a European state is feasable and would prolly be the most realistic option to be truly sovereign
what kind of soldier would die for a Union that doesent even preserve his coutry and culture
Mercenaries but that's this union
Who's to say that it has to be this way
europeans are going to be just fine withou the EU
Not really
If we're all separate we won't be truly independent
Fragmentation lends itself to globohomo
The only truly centralized state they need is America as the world police
Though in principle even if America went away what would stop China?
Or India, Brazil etc.
china is in a prasitic relationship eith USA
China is in a parasitic relationship with the first world
the americans need china to produce all their cheap shit
@Mr. Nessel its the opposite
america is a parasite on china
its ment to ditract the middle class on how expensive everything has gotten
China is parasitizing American purchasing power and investment
