		European vacations seems to be underestimated, especially by the younger generation and budget travelers.

	European Alliance - Memory Alpha, the Star Trek Wiki (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		In the 24th century, the European Alliance is a political entity on the European continent on Earth, incorporating the city of Brussels amongst others.
		However, the European Alliance might state a joint effort of the European people to create a unified administration and representation at the global government and, thus, might be very similar to the European Union.
		The European Alliance is presumably bordered by the "Mediterranean Alliance", which was referenced in the novelization of Star Trek: The Motion Picture.

	The European Counterweight--Part 1: A Leaderless Superpower
		Within a 75-year span, the European continent was ravaged by three brutal war campaigns: the Franco-Prussian War (1870-71), World War I (1914-18) and World War II (1939-45).
		It is to re-create the European Family, or as much of it as we can, and to provide it with a structure under which it can dwell in peace, in safety and in freedom.
		Four years later, the European Court of First Instance acknowledged that “the Commission’s reasoning was marred by legal errors,” and that “in the words of the court, the decision was ‘vitiated [invalidated] by illegalities.’” However, the court upheld the 2001 decision.

		For them, the continent is no longer a world of warring states, walled-off cities and guards at every border, but a wide-open region where old economic, political and cultural barriers are breaking down, leading to new opportunities and new ways of thinking.
		Fourteen of the 20 largest commercial banks in the world today are European, and European businesses lead in the chemical, engineering and construction, aerospace and insurance industries, as well as the food wholesale and retail trades.
		Europeans often remark that Americans "live to work," while they "work to live." Although the demands of globalization mean that Europeans have to work somewhat harder than they used to, they still get an average of five weeks' paid vacation a year, where Americans get two.

	Assembly of WEU
		Maintaining the stability of the European continent — the scene of two terrible wars in the first half of the 20th century — has been one of the major political objectives of Europe.
		Against this background the Parliamentary Assembly of Western European Union (WEU), which has its premises in Paris, has made a dedicated contribution over the years to all issues of security and stability on the European continent and is continuing to do so.

	DEBUNKING EUROPEAN DEFENSE MYTHS
		At the heart of the European Union’s plan is the proposal to build an autonomous military force supported by the necessary political and military apparatus.
		In short, since military interventions in regional crises perceived as threats to European stability (such as Bosnia and Kosovo) are now a priority for NATO and the EU, the Europeans need to accelerate the process of readjusting how they spend their defense money.
		The European Union and NATO need to establish formal relations and agree on terms of cooperation on the European continent if they are to assuage these suspicions.

	EU: Climate change will transform the face of the continent - Independent Online Edition > Environment (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-29)
		Europe, the richest and most fertile continent and the model for the modern world, will be devastated by climate change, the European Union predicts today.
		The ecosystems that have underpinned all European societies from Ancient Greece and Rome to present-day Britain and France, and which helped European civilisation gain global pre-eminence, will be disabled by remorselessly rising temperatures, EU scientists forecast in a remarkable report which is as ominous as it is detailed.
		Much of the continent's age-old fertility, which gave the world the vine and the olive and now produces mountains of grain and dairy products, will not survive the climate change forecast for the coming century, the scientists say, and its wildlife will be devastated.

	Will Islam Conquer Europe?
		History has proven that the powers that have sought control of the European continent in the past have had a standoff with the religion of Islam for the greatest influence of the European continent and the Holy land.
		European leaders have long sought the dream of a United States of Europe—a return to the past glory of the Holy Roman Empire, and a rival to the giant of the past century, the United States of America.
		The European Union has also made it very clear that they are seeking to become independent of the U.S. in military defense and to make decisions regarding their own security issues.

		Lastly, there is the question of how to ensure that a redefined division of competence does not lead to a creeping expansion of the competence of the Union or to encroachment upon the exclusive areas of competence of the Member States and, where there is provision for this, regions.
		The European Union derives its legitimacy from the democratic values it projects, the aims it pursues and the powers and instruments it possesses.
		Three representatives of the Economic and Social Committee with three representatives of the European social partners; from the Committee of the Regions: Six representatives (to be appointed by the Committee of the Regions from the regions, cities and regions with legislative powers), and the European Ombudsman will be invited to attend as observers.

	European Disunion
		Though the Bush administration has wisely and scrupulously stayed out of the debate over the EU Constitution, the fact is that the United States and European powers of an Atlanticist outlook stand to benefit from the actions of the French and Dutch electorates.
		American policy since the 1950s has always been generally supportive of European cooperation through the European Community and later of the European Union; it has been an economic bulwark against communist expansion and a guarantee against a repeat of the World Wars of the 20th century.
		One reason is history; Europeans have for centuries perfected the art of national stereotyping – aimed at each other as they have lived and fought on close quarters on the small and heavily populated European continent.

		European fears of increasingly militant Muslims in their own backyard have grown in the wake of recent terror attacks.

		Even though the system was initially confined to the western part of the European continent, since it took a longer time for the eastern regions of Europe to embark on the road of democracy, eventually, the desire for freedom, democracy, and the life in a thriving society has triumphed in Central and East European countries.
		The Slovak Republic is among the youngest European states that has became a sovereign state after many centuries, and just like anything one has to learn in life, the art of rule, the use of power, democracy and its institutions, the communication with political partners and opponents, must also be first learnt.
		This is intended to gradually evolve into a global European initiative, focusing on the enhancement of the Union's role in global processes, the enhancement of the capacity to cope with such risks as the proliferation of nuclear, bacteriological, and chemical weapons, organised crime, migration, and the like.
