Federal thread

You can only post on this thread if your country is a federation. Unitary, get out.

QRD?

we're a federation due to our history (only time Germany wasn't a federation was under Nazi rule), but I think it doesn't really make sense for such a small country

Federations practically makes no sense

we should have been fuck

Explain why not

Waddup bros

Look at Switzerland. Federation is the freedom system.

Agreed. A smaller country might not NEED to be a federation the way a larger nation does, but its still better to have more representation in your government

I could imagine it's relatively inefficient in an increasingly globalized world
I don't really identify with my federal state or its state government anyway

Do you think the EU should be unitary or a federation? Or stay as it is now?

Some federal states have more inhabitants than a few europen countries like the nordics or central european countries, and they have higher gdp too.

I like the federative model because it prevents the existence of a concentration of power.

I'm generally pro-EU but I'm not sure whether it should become fully sovereign (currently the member states are)
if it does become sovereign it should definitely be a federation and not unitary due to its size and regional diversity

The European Union should be just a trade union, not a political union.

You are not even an EU member. Why do you even have an opinion on this?

wish we were one desu

We are a federation because lots of arguing past discrimination

for you it kinda makes sense tho because of the different languages

i think we are one in all but name

All former European colonies should get a say.

Me I vote for federation EU. Unitary EU is too much too soon, and I dont think would work in such a big "country" as EU anyway. Coronavirus has shown that the loose/wobbly trade coalition isnt good enough in the hard times and came close to fucking over Italy.
My thoughts

>All former European colonies should get a say.
dilate

>All former European colonies should get a say.
and why exactly ?

>All former European colonies should get a say.
if they choose to be part of these countries again why not?

>tf
>tp

yeah Belgium is an EU member, Brazil isn't, so dilate

Because its fun and I wanna get a say and I know whats best for EU--its a federation system. Get me Merkel on the phone so I can let her know.

I wish we were a federation

Belgium IS the EU, alongside with Germany.

because Yas Forums told you so or what?

based retard

Me: "Hallo Merkel. ich komme aus ein former European colony. Ich mochte ein federation system fur das EU, weil gut ist. Zu loose ist schlect und Italien gette fucked. Unitary ist viel zu viel. Danke schoen"

No, the Deutsches Bank told me that.

There are some institution based here yes, grey, bleak concrete buildings in Brapsels. But it's not like Lelgium has that much influence or anything.

The historical reason why they are here is because France didn't want the EU to be located in Germany and vice versa.
