On this day, 69 years ago, six countries took a leap of faith and signed the Treaty of Rome. 🇧🇪 🇩🇪 🇫🇷 🇮🇹 🇱🇺 🇳🇱

They chose cooperation over division, laying the foundations for what would become today’s European Union.

From a shared market to shared ambitions, that vision has grown far beyond economics. It’s about connection, opportunity, and celebrating what makes each member country unique.

Different languages, cultures, and histories, one common journey.

United in diversity, then and now. 💙

The EU is obviously not perfect, but the way I see it it is possibly (not far from) the strongest its ever been. And that's with Orban's constant treason.

A similar thought that struck me a while back:
Right now is probably the strongest and most functional the Kalmar Union has been.
Sure, the Nordics aren't in a union with one king now, but with all being in NATO now this is the most coordinated our militaries have ever been. And wwe're all EU+EEA, and freedom of movement since decades. etc.
Looks like a more solid "union" than we had in the 1400s.
