A new league

October 23rd, 2024

The European Union needs a new constitution, to really work. The main issue to work out, is the balance between the national parliaments and the federal level.

This is a long and very challenging process. We have had leagues in the history of the West before. There were the Peloponnesian league, that was created after the battle at Thermopylae, and you could call the Roman Empire a league in a sense. At least, they had a lot of freedom in the provinces.

So we have to find a balance between the Peloponnesian league and the Roman Empire, to make a system that will work.

We also have to learn from the issues there were in each system, and make sure, that we do not repeat their issues.

We have the dichotomy between Athens and Sparta as a kind of balance we have to find. Athens being the ideal of Democracy and Sparta the ideal of Socialism.

In the character of the system, we need to make sure, that all the checks and balances that is supposed to be in such a system is present.

So this will be the crowning achievement of my work.

Making a system that will work for a thousand years like the Roman Empire or Sparta.

So I need to make sure, that I cover all bases, to make this a success.

I know a lot from both Lycurgus and Aristotle that are the main philosophers of Sparta and Athens, when it comes to define how the different system work.

We do however make time for it to encompass the different needs of all the nations of Europe, be flexible. That was how the Roman Empire worked. By being flexible to the reality. Christmas is a pagan holiday (the festival of Odin) that was accepted into the Roman church as something else.

So, please, I need some time to think this through.

Any comments and criticisms are more than welcome, this cannot just be my ideas. I have to put an ear to the ground.

G-d bless the magnificent project, this has the potential to be. May we prosper.
