    First of all, it would be necessary to reduce prejudices against each other and to create an awareness of the similarities.

    There still seem to be certain animosities among the Germanic peoples due to WWI and WWII, esp. between England and Germany.

    I fully agree with you, even though im American
    To me, the best solution for the Northwestern Europeans would be to leave EU and start working on a union of their own.

    Oh they did. The French had "New France". A territory stretching from modern day Quebec to Arkansas, from western Pennsylvania to Wyoming. They would've expanded westwards and pretty much whole of the US minus the thirteen colonies would've been part of France at that time and French speaking today. There's a strong French leftover in those above mentioned states. In the capital of former Louisiana, St. Louis there is still a very small French speaking minority. Not to mention the state of Louisiana and the many French Americans of the midwest, myself included.

    But no! The French revolution had to ruin everything. Just like it destroyed modern day France. The French kings were very fond of the New World, Louisiana after all is named after Louis XIV.

    Closer economic and cultural cooperation and the erasing of pointless prejudices yes, anything more, no.

    All Germanic countries should be looking more towards the Anglo-New World, not just Britain.

    Agreed, it would be beneficial for all Germanic countries to join forces. Nevertheless each country should remain an independant souvereign nation but allied under a common roof.
    Prodigies appear in the oddest of places

    A sneaky bit of empire building on our behalf there.
