The idea of transforming the European Union into a single federal state – the United States of Europe – divides public opinion like few other issues. For some, it’s the vision of a strong, united continent capable of competing with the US and China; for others, it’s a threat to national sovereignty. In the background lies the question of whether a shared army and constitution would strengthen Europe or turn it into a bureaucratic empire under the dominance of Brussels and Berlin. Supporters of federalization see it as salvation from chaos, while opponents view it as a step toward a new form of elite domination. Will Europe become a single state, or will it preserve its mosaic of national identities?
