BRAINLIST!?Using the Venn Diagram, write down differences and similarities between Europe and America.

Explanation:

U.S.

• Federal republic

• One capital city/“headquarter”: DC

• Comprised of states, not individual countries

• Population is smaller than EU, but large for a single country

• Based on one Constitution

• Federal government controls security and defense

• All states use the same currency

• Freedom of movement

EU

• Intergovernmental yet supranational

• More appointments by national governments, only one institution directly elected

• Multiple headquarters/cities: Brussels, Frankfurt, Luxembourg, Strasbourg

• Controls a larger population (500 million)

• Comprised of individual countries

• Based on series of treaties

• Nations retain individual authority in security & defense

• “subsidiarity”—overlapping responsibility for oversight devolves to lowest level (aka not the EU, but the state)

• not all states use the Euro

• some EU states are not included in the Schengen Zone (aka free movement)

Similarity

• Tries to make best decision for country

• World trade as a major focus

• Type of government

• Makes decisions affecting its population

• Pool (some) sovereign powers for sake of unity and shared values
