The problem is simple, European history, cultures and languages go back 1,000s of years. The USA goes back a few hundred. Imagine the Sioux, Apache and Arapaho amalgamating. Well that's what they dreamed of with Europe.
Czechoslovakia never decided to split. It was purely political decision. Nobody asked us. There was no referendum. And result? Now both of our nations have even weaker position in the EU. I hope EU dream will end this year
