Since the Fall of the Roman Empire the idea of unity has been present in European culture. Since the early modern period, proposals have been made for unions of European states in some form, from the 19th century as unions of nation-states. The creation of the predecessors to the present European Union was however specific to the years immediately after the Second World War.

A beautiful project, very impressive and fast during the 50ts but a little bit slower now. Anyway, as my teacher of european law told me last week, seeing a french and a german kissing and embrassing was laughable and not possible sixty years ago, now it's normal. That's why european unification is a great idea.
On the other hand, that unification is very difficult because each country has its own history, habits and ideas. That's also very difficult to communicate because we have 27 countries wanting to talk in their own language...
That leads to a situation where europe is sometimes divided on certain ideas, like the Irak war. Europe must now take a position in the international community and have somethings to tell, with on voice and not 27.

attempted by Treaty of Versailles, Treaty of Brest-Litsovk, Congress of Berlin. European Economic Community and European Union are attempting this too.

Possibly desirable in the long run, but probably never likely to happen. Does that answer your question?
