Episode 58: Europe-a continent of wars
Manage episode 364481481 series 3001077
Europe has 4 times more countries per million sq kilometers than Asia and this one of the contributing factors why Europe seems to be always at war. The religious differences and ethnic diversity are other reasons behind Europe's conflicts through history.
After World War II, the continent was relatively quiet, but there was a lot of tension within the Soviet Satellite states like East Germany, Hungary and Czechoslovakia. The EU was an attempt to unify Europe economically, but Brexit has slammed the brakes on that plan. The Russia-Ukraine War though seems to be a temporary blip due to one sole Dictator.
