People more or less organize like this...
Immediately family -> Extended Family -> tribe/groups -> community -> city -> states/regions -> nation -> country/countrymen -> other

No one is going to more "other" to the front of the line.
the reason is simple greed that it doesn't work. It could have worked if they didn't sell the euro too expensive firstly, and secondly prices went times 2 almost overnight in many many countries. This is the core why the people started hating the euro from the get go. Everyone was fucked, and nobody could do anything about it. Then every country needed to pay those fuckers in Brussels huge amounts of money, and for what? For a couple of European common laws being made once every 5 years. I'm sure the rest goes to the top people who already made their fortune with the exchange in the start.

In short, the euro is a pet project from top people who really made a shitload from it, and a failed project for the people. I hope it will go to shit.
