@@TheLordboki No. There are some pretty substantial differences between the US and the EU. With the US there is a common language and culture that binds the states together. The EU has none of that.

Once again, I recommend to boost AI nations, choose AI economic boost in preset settings and boost majority of bigger nations so that AI will not suicide itself in Millenium Dawn. It's unfair to player, but at least the world isn't collapsing. And if you're playing a nation that allows boosting, difficulty debuff and boost cancel each other and you get only buffed AIs.

Europe has had a thousand years to develop independent, prideful nations who only decided to finally get along after 2 world wars and the invention of weapons that would have made a 3rd world war apocalyptic. Convincing them all to give up their independence was always going to be a major pain in the ass. Doing so by 2014 strains credibility as it is. African countries might be even more reluctant to surrender autonomy to a past colonial power. There is plenty of historical baggage there. They'd need a very compelling reason... like being dug out of crippling debt and extended all of the lovely welfare benefits of a developed European power. If everything is going great, they'll stick on their own. With all of the horrible political BS you needed to deal with, it's no wonder that so many nations considered leaving.
