Italy created the EU!

[Bobby Martnen]

I wonder how long Merkel can hold on to power she has been there forever. I think once she goes the EU might get more difficult to hold together.

Good. Hopefully the EU will collapse and then the European countries will be free to kick out all those of migrant background.

I still have compassion for the migrants for the most part. Not real good options here.

It is true that Italy is the biggest loser of the Euro, the country that benefited the least from it.

I have much more compassion for the native Europeans whose countries have been overrun by "Allahu Akbar"

They will be just fine,, they should look at people wanting to be like them as a compliment.

Except the migrants don't want to be like them, they're showing no real signs of assimilating.

The migrants want to turn the West into another Middle East, they don't want to Westernize.

It was Italy who gets the credit for starting the EU. So if Italy ever left the EU it would probably not survive. It is a shame how the EURO currency has really hurt Italy severely over the years it has barely grown since they adopted the EURO.

lol?

Really?

Don't be a douche-bag. In 1957 Italy was probably the largest Manufacturing economy in continental Europe(excluding the east). West Germany was not as powerful economically in 1957. France was always known as more of a service based economy and a political power but not as industrial as their peers. Germany became powerful much later than 1957.

It was created in Rome. It was first called the European Economic Community. It has since became a monster. But many of the countries were not even part if it in the beginning.

Why not go back further?

What about Pan-Europa?

is the oldest European unification movement. It began with the publishing of Count Richard von Coudenhove-Kalergi's manifesto Paneuropa (1923), which presented the idea of a unified European State.

How about the other Europeans including Brits?

[Among its notable members were Albert Einstein, Fridtjof Nansen, Johan Ludwig Mowinckel, Thomas Mann, Franz Werfel, Bronisław Huberman, Aristide Briand, Konrad Adenauer, Sigmund Freud, Benedetto Croce, Bruno Kreisky, Léon Blum and Georges Pompidou.[2] Winston Churchill lauded the movement's work for a unified Europe prior to the war in his famous Zurich speech in 1946.

In 1947, the group formed around Duncan Sandys, Winston Churchill, Edvard Beneš and others splited into newly formed European Movement in opposition of Union's strong Christian right.

How about the Treaty of Paris 1951?

This whole movement who some wrongfully attribute to the Church only,
is basically more Frankish Kingdom, Merovingian, Caroligian based, just with less Church and more Muslims,
and more perverts...

1950s Europe was a different place. Much of Europe was recovering and benefiting from the Marshall plan as the Communist parties were always a problem.
