- Cyprus, Czech Republic, Estonia, Hungary, Latvia, Lithuania, Poland, Slovakia, and Slovenia joined the EU in 2004.
- The Cold War significantly impacted European integration as it led to the creation of the European Economic Community (EEC) as a counter to the Soviet bloc's influence.
- The Schengen Agreement, which eliminated border controls among participating countries, was a direct consequence of the 1985 Schengen Agreement, fostering free movement between member states.

- The UK officially left the European Union in 2020, commonly known as "Brexit."
Post-WWI Political Systems
