• Feeling European

    I feel European... Why?

    I'm going to explain  it now.

     

     

    Being European is first a geopolitical aspect:

    • We all live on the same continent (in a temperate country)

    • We all have the same cultural roots ( Greek and Roman civilization)

    • We all have the same religious foundation: Christianism

    • During the history there were moving of population (migration, invasion...)

    All these factors have created a European spirit.

     

     

    But:

    • Languages are indeed extremely different, they are coming from more than four different roots and are factors of divisions inside Europe.

    • Even the borders of Europe are discussed. Some think Europe should include Russian, some Turkey and some prefer to stop to the borders of community.

     

     

     

    Now being European is also a Cultural and Political aspect:

    • All European countries are under democratie and it's a very important topic for European people.

    • We have very close standards of life.

    • We share the same way of life (music, movies, culture...).Encouraged by program like Erasmus who has the aim to develop the European Identity.

     

     

     

    Nether the less, I'm going to conclued with a small joke:

     

    What will be the European paradise?

    You are welcome by an English.

    A French will shake the meal.

    An Italian will make the ambiance.

    And a German manage the other all.

     

     

    But what will be hell?

    You are welcome by a French.

    An English man make the food.

    A German the ambiance.

    And an Italian managed every thing...
