The Mystery of Europe's DissolutionReader comment on item: Europe Wake Up! Submitted by M Tovey (United States), Dec 17, 2018 at 19:17 Ever wonder why Europa will never fully coalesce into the powerhouse of civilization? A unified People of Europe has never reached a fully developed status of common goals and socialization to which all could be part of and exhibit a fellowship of seeking a common understanding without being true to themselves ethnically. It's in the DNA. There was only one time when this was thought possible; that did not survive the Middle Ages. Even under the mysticism of civilizationalism. Actually, Europe is doomed to repeat many of the mistakes of the various attempts to unify, none of the lessons of history making any indelible impression as to why this is an impossible task, much less a noble one. It is much easier to see how nationalistic political dreams are more powerful to any indigenous peoples looking for a more common goals of defending the ancestors' dream of protecting the 'home front.' Look at England with Brexit: there is an innate instability within the population itself of not trusting those who do not share a common ideal or background identity, therefore; dissolution is more desirable, and in the end, inevitable.
